Events and venues

Tickets nobody can fake. Age checked in the same tap.

For event organisers, venues and membership clubs. Hand out passes that cannot be copied or used twice, and check them at the door with a scan.

What gets in the way today

  • Paper tickets get photocopied, and screenshots get forwarded.
  • Door staff squint at ID cards in the dark.
  • Membership and loyalty cards are easy to share.

What you can do with VU

Each one says how far it has got: live, in early access, or coming.

Live

Tickets nobody can fake

Each ticket is a credential in the guest's wallet. At the door it is checked, then cancelled with one call, so a copy is refused.

Way 1: You check, we certify
Live

Memberships, coupons and punch cards

Issue them with the fields you need, and cancel or pause one whenever you need to.

Early access

Age at the door

Guests who have checked once in the VU app show they are over 18 with a tap. Staff see a live tick, not a birthday.

Way 3: We check once, they carry it
Coming

A free checker for your staff

Any venue will be able to check passes and ages in the VU app, free.

Customer story

How Safewire's merchants do it.

Harbour Night Market makes an entry ticket in the Safewire portal. A customer adds it to their wallet. At the door one scan verifies it and uses it up, and scanning it again is refused. Punch cards work the same way.

  • Check at the door

    Live

    A scan confirms the pass is genuine, in date and not cancelled. Cancel it once it is used.

  • In your own app, or ours

    Coming

    Passes go into your own app or any wallet that supports the open standard. The VU app will hold them too.

Straight answers

Can I use it for alcohol sales?
Not yet. In England and Wales, a digital proof of age for selling alcohol must come from a certified provider. VU is not yet certified as a UK digital identity provider. Certification is on our roadmap.
Do my guests need an app?
Today, passes go into your own app, as they do in Safewire, or into a wallet that supports the open standard. The VU app will hold them too.
What does the door see?
Only what the pass proves: that it is genuine and still valid, or that the guest is over 18. Not their name or birthday unless the pass needs it.
