quote: Which case, all the best with it and i hope it works out :) But again, seek legal advise especially if you plan to resell football tickets as it could make things very messy. Not exactly sure where you'd stand in this but potentially if the idea was Gumtree-esque and the transaction was offsite then you might be able to skirt around the legalities but it does limit where you generate your revenue. | |

As far as im aware there is no APP or website that does what is planned. Just wanted some feedback from you lot, never no in 6 months you could be saying "I was part of that" | |

Nowadays finding something that hasn't already been done is nigh on impossible, it's all about doing it better. | |

quote: Perhaps. And if Tommy does have an epic unique product then all the best to him, i hope it's a success and he'll be able to show us more in the future. But so far it sounding like a product that's already been done with 'having an app' pedalling the idea (creating an app doesn't make the idea unique, nor does wanting one because 'everyone else has one' a valid reason either - hear that line far too often from clients). | |

quote: Most of the big ticket vendors already have mobile sites/apps, same with resellers like Seatwave; so there's no issue there. quote: Assuming a 'web page' is a mobile site, can i ask why you're wanting both? Unless you're planning to use native functionality of the phone (ie: functions that aren't accessible via mobile frameworks) then there is little to no advantage having an app (most 'site' driven apps tend to be compiled mobile sites anyway ie: use Phonegap or Nimblekit). You're better off having a decent mobile site as it opens you up to a wider audience. Again, you need to seek out some solid legal advise especially with regards to reselling tickets, more so if you're planning to resell football tickets as it's illegal under the criminal justice and public order act unless you have an agreement with the original vendor (you might be ok with smaller clubs getting an arrangement in place, going to be uphill struggle with the larger clubs though). And not to piss on your bonfire but unless you have something truly unique (having an 'app' isn't this) then you're putting yourself in a well established field with huge companies that have vast budgets - the saying 'pissing in the wind' springs to mind. | |

Some football clubs have a twitter account for this kind of thing, run by fans usually. | |

Yeah. It is a pain in the arse being on a PC at 8am to get tickets when they're likely to sell out in 30 seconds. Having the convenience of phone or tablet would be great. | |

There would be an APP and Web page etc. The app is going to incorporate few other ideas we have. | |

Having a mobile/tablet app/optimised site is going to be the key to this. | |

Usually use Seatwave, Viagogo or eBay (which there are either phone apps or mobile sites). Obviously there are plenty of other sites that do this and there are the legal aspects (either reselling or users selling fakes). | |

Yes - if I knew about it and there was no more tickets through official means. | |

I would but isn't this a form of ticket touting? | |

If you wanted to go and see a sporting event E.g a football match would you use an APP that lets you find out if anyone has spare tickets that they want to sell so you could buy them. |
