This section covers the new features and updates we made in February. You might want to continue reading. Who knows? Maybe we have added the feature that was missing from your event plans?
If you’ve activated Billetto Advertising, your events can now appear directly to ticket buyers in your area through our new GEO heatmap. This will give your event 10x more exposure on our homepage. The feature is designed to boost your local visibility and help you reach the right audience at the right time.
From now on, when ticket buyers visit Billetto.co.uk, they’ll see a clear overview of nearby events, from today and 30 days forward — but only if YOU are using Billetto Advertising.
The feature also gives you exposure on Google, Social Media, and through our email newsletters, so there really isn’t a reason not use it. Plus, the feature is a ‘No Cure No Pay’ function, meaning you only pay for tickets sold through Billetto Advertising. You also choose the number of tickets to sell and the percentage of payment per ticket.
Activate Billetto Advertising today by following our simple setup guide, and start boosting your event's local visibility immediately.

Smart Links started as a simple affiliate-tracking tool, but it has now become a powerful feature for sales and campaign management. This means you can track your affiliate sales, control access to your event, apply promotions, and strategically manage when your tickets are sold.
Smart Links allows you to create individual tracking links for partners, campaigns or sales channels. Each Smart Link includes a unique URL, a downloadable QR code and performance tracking. It makes it easier to track and understand your collaborations, influencer marketing, partner promotions, and QR code scans.
You can print your QR codes and place them where your target group are to sell tickets for our upcoming events. If you have your event posted on social media, you can create a link to track sales, and if you have partners, you can share unique links and offers for presales, offers, VIPs etc.
Even though Smart Links are already good, we have further updated the feature. This means you can now add offers to your shared links, including campaigns. Furthermore, you can override the sales date directly in the link, giving you greater flexibility when promoting your event.
Create Smart Links for your event now!
We understand what it’s like to be an event organiser. Most expenses are due before the event — venues, tech, artists, suppliers — but ticket revenue usually arrives afterwards.
To make things easier, Billetto offers Prepayment: a payout model that gives you the majority of your ticket revenue before your event takes place. We’re rolling out an improved version to give you greater transparency and control.
You’ll benefit from a comprehensive settings overview showing Adyen status and configuration, including the option to turn prepayment on or off for each event. It will also be easier to track orders and revenue processed through prepayment once your event is completed.
There are no required changes on your side — everything is simply being improved behind the scenes. If you want to hear more about Prepayment and apply it to your event, then contact us here at Support@billetto.com
This section is about what we are rolling out in the near future. We have a lot of exciting news and updates coming.
When you create an event with Billetto, you can receive detailed reports after the event. The reports will show important information from your events, either collectively or separately, and you will use them to understand your sales data.
We are soon updating reports, meaning that guest lists and reports will be separated into two distinct categories, and you’ll have better options to define your own reports based on exactly the information you need.
This means more control and less complexity for you moving forward.
That was all for February. If we have inspired you to create an event. Don’t hesitate and wait, you can create it already here.
