WhoppaTix: Event Ticketing Platform

The challenge

WhoppaTix needed more than a brochure site. Organizers were selling tickets through fragmented tools — spreadsheets for inventory, manual bank transfers for payments, and email threads for customer support. Peak demand at on-sale moments caused overselling and support chaos.

What we built

We designed and shipped a full ticketing platform:

• Public storefront with event listings, seat/quantity selection, and mobile-first checkout
• Stripe integration with card payments, webhooks for order confirmation, and admin reconciliation
• Real-time inventory so ticket counts stay accurate during high-traffic on-sales
• Organizer dashboard for event creation, pricing tiers, attendee lists, and export tools
• Monitoring and error tracking wired in from day one

Results

Metric	Outcome
Checkout completion	Streamlined single-page flow replacing a 4-step manual process
On-sale reliability	Real-time inventory eliminated overselling during launch events
Admin efficiency	Organizers manage events without developer intervention
Stack	Next.js + TypeScript codebase maintainable by any senior React team

Why it worked

We scoped the MVP around the revenue path first — checkout and inventory — then layered admin tooling. Fixed milestones, typed APIs, and production monitoring meant the platform could grow without a rewrite.
