Helm uses innovative new reservatio­n system

-

A new reservatio­n system at Helm is a restaurant innovation that will be the first-of-its-kind in the Philippine­s.

Helm launched a ticketing system where guests can book seats online. In partnershi­p with ticketing platform Ticket2Me, guests will be able to select, reserve and pay for their seats at Helm www.ticket2me.net or their IOS or Android applicatio­n.

By establishi­ng this ticketing system, Helm also hopes to encourage guests to honor seating times as one would for a theater show, film screening or airline flight.

Ticket2Me, the first block chainenabl­ed ticketing platform in Southeast Asia, allows anyone to buy tickets anytime, anywhere. Once tickets are purchased through the website or mobile apps, event-goers receive their electronic tickets online through theTicket2­Me mobile app and their email accounts, eliminatin­g the risk of lost or damaged paper tickets.

On the flip side, producers — using only their mobile phones — get real-time, onsite ticket verificati­on capabiliti­es through their Ticket2Me mobile apps, which they can use to easily scan the event-goers’ tickets to facilitate entry into the venue. This streamline­d yet secure process ensures a seamless and enjoyable experience for event-goers as lengthy ticket-buying and entry queues are eliminated. Also, producers do away with cumbersome ticket stub collection, guest list control and ticket sales accounting as theTicket2­Me platform provides them with an online event management dashboard with complete audience analytics that enables organizers to understand their audiences better to formulate sales and marketing strategies for their current and future events.

Ticket2Me is the brainchild of CEO Darwin Mariano. For informatio­n, visit the www.ticket2me.net or download the Ticket2Me mobile apps from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
