Ticketing for Museums & Historic Houses

The Gateway Ticketing Systems UK Visitor Management & Ticketing system offers a whole host of tools to enable you to increase your income, manage your costs and offer timed ticketing.

With built in Gift Aid prompts and the facility to accept donations, the Gateway system offers a one stop shop for museums & historic houses which will have your customers coming back time and time again.

Gift Aid

Grow your Gift Aid donations with online, onsite and mobile Gift Aid transactions. Prompt each time a ticket is sold and collect data on Point of Sale without any need for manual form-filling and endless back of house data entry. We can also verify data on entry with integrated postcode look-up software.

Increase income

The Gateway Ticketing Systems UK Visitor Management software comes with various tools to enable you to increase income. Variable ticket pricing has enabled many museums and heritage attractions to significantly increase average ticket price whilst increasing guest satisfaction scores. 
Advanced booking allows you to lock in the guest visit avoiding the need for tactical discounting, putting you ahead of your competitors at peak trading times.
 Our upsell and package tools allow you to create bespoke offers to increase revenue. Whether it’s a family package or simply adding a guide book your ticket sellers will be able to easily select new options for your customers.

Staff management

Gateway reporting tools allow you to predict attendance which in turn enables you to smooth out demand and operate at optimum staffing levels.
Gateway’s real time reports enabled customers to predict demand for onsite facilities such as catering and retail reducing wastage and overheads. Better customer data allows you to target the right people at the right time substantially reducing marketing costs.

Friends

Gateway software enables museums create membership records easily at your front desk and print full colour cards for them there and then. Instant Memberships allow for associated discounts, member benefits and easy entry for your guests (and no more mailing out cards for you!)
 With the option to store photo ID with each card you can easily recognise members and validate them for fast track entry, discounts and special offers from any Gateway till point.

Timed ticketing

Reduce queue times and pre-plan your operational needs with timed admission slots. Gateway Software gives you the opportunity to limit capacity and timings to suit your needs whether it’s for an hourly venue tour or special exhibitions.
Timed ticketing works through advanced channels too, allowing you to control guest flow into your venue when guests pre-book. Many museums and heritage attractions use this to spread guests through the day easing the load on the front desk at peak times and substantially reducing wait times whilst increasing income.

A one stop shop

Manage your admissions desks, membership records, retail sales and event details from one central location, and track sales whenever and wherever they take place. With everything in one place reporting becomes effortless, leaving you more time for business analysis.
 Online reporting tools will allow for anyone, anywhere to monitor trading so even when you are out and about in the attraction you can get a birds-eye view of your business needs. Spend per head and secondary revenue are easily viewed across all admissions, retail and F&B areas from one place.
