Organizing a night out for your crew? TicketFae takes you from "who's coming?" to "who still owes me?" in one app. Start with a seat poll so you buy exactly the right number of tickets. Then hand them out - digital or paper - and see at a glance who's paid. Afterwards, a photo gallery of the night is the cherry on top. Your friends don't need an app. Curious? Download it and try Explore mode with sample data - or read on for the details. PLAN BEFORE YOU BUY Ask your crew who's in and how many seats each, track every answer on the event card (8/8 answered), and buy exactly the right number. Already have the tickets? Skip straight to splitting. SPLIT ONE PDF INTO SEPARATE TICKETS The venue sends one PDF with everyone's tickets stacked inside. TicketFae splits it into individual tickets per friend - one each, or a pair for the couples - with real seats, QR codes and barcodes preserved, so there are no mix-ups at the door. Done in seconds. Fully offline. No account needed. PAPER TICKETS? THOSE TOO Holding the physical tickets? Assign who gets which seats, and each friend gets a short message with what they owe - like "2 tickets, $30." Hand the tickets over in person as usual. SEND EACH FRIEND THEIR OWN TICKET WhatsApp, iMessage, AirDrop or any share sheet - your friends don't need an app, not even on Android. Everyone walks in with their own QR code or barcode. SEE WHO STILL OWES YOU Every ticket is logged against whoever owes for it. Each friend's message carries a PayPal link or a SEPA QR code they scan in their banking app - ask for money without the awkwardness. Once the money's in, one tap marks them settled. See who's paid and who hasn't at a glance. SOMEONE DROP OUT? Reassign their ticket to someone else - the original seat and its QR code or barcode move with it, never guessed. Bought a second, pricier batch later? Each batch keeps its real cost. Nothing gets averaged or muddled. RELIVE EVERY NIGHT OUT Attach selfies and photos to each event so your best nights build into a shared history, instead of scattering across everyone's camera rolls. Look back through Insights: total spend, favorite venues, who shows up most, a 12-month event calendar, and post-event rating polls. WHAT'S A FAE? In Irish and Celtic folklore, the fae are the fairy folk - the unseen hands that quietly make things happen. Every friend group has one. OPTIONAL: THE FREE BUDDY APP Friends on iPhone can download the free TicketFae Buddy app to get their tickets, payment requests, and rating polls automatically - each in their own language. They also get each event's photo gallery and can add their own photos. Not required: everything works over normal messages without it. BUILT FOR THE ORGANIZER The film-club captain. The theater-subscription ringleader. The one who always "sorts the tickets" for the concert crew, the festival squad, the game-day regulars. If that's you, this is your app. You're on it! WHY TICKETFAE - Plan, hand out and settle up in one app - the seat poll is optional - Works with PDF and paper tickets - Splits any multi-ticket PDF - not tied to one venue or vendor - Real QR codes and barcodes preserved - no re-issuing, no door drama - Works fully offline for splitting and scanning - Your friends don't need an app - not even on Android - No account required FREE Everything is free right now - and early supporters keep it for life: polls, splitting, sending, billing, photo galleries, ratings, and messages in each friend's own language. Built by a small group of regulars who used it for months - every couple of weeks - before sharing it. Made for the person who makes the night happen. That's you. Download TicketFae - no more chasing payments, juggling seats, or wondering who's got which ticket.
