E-Tickets vs. Print at Home

Hi everybody,

The New Vic is looking to go down the route of Print at Home tickets, but in my research there seems to be very little information about PAHT's cousin, e-tickets (i.e., a ticket that can be scanned via the screen on an iPhone, Android, etc.).

Does anyone employ e-tickets in conjunction with PAHT? Or, have you simply been able to use N-Scan to record the bar-codes from emailed ticket pdfs?

What kind of hiccups, front of house and otherwise, have been experienced with e-tickets?

Thanks in advance for your help.

    We’ve been scanning our PAHT bar codes off of smart phones for awhile.  We don’t advertise it but we’ve found that patrons show up expecting it.  Haven’t run into any issues yet but I’m sure the minute we advertise doing it, we’ll have our first issue with it….

    N-Scan is able to validate a PDF from a smart phone (I just tested it). We don’t typically use it, but it works.
