From paper ticket to digital experience with HC Oppenweiler/Backnang
A full hall, a tense atmosphere, a strong opponent - and already at the entrance everything runs like clockwork. What used to be associated with long queues, paper tickets and large personnel costs now works smoothly digitally ✅ at HC Oppenweiler/Backnang.
The traditional club, which plays in the 2nd Handball Bundesliga, was faced with a major challenge: With the move to the modern Murrtal Arena, ticketing and admission also had to be brought to a new level. For over 40 years, paper was the standard 🧾 – but the association took the plunge and opted for ditix 🚀.
The Challenge: From Analog to Digital ⚡
Until the move, ticket sales at HCOB were still classically analogue: day tickets, cash payment and no digital control at the entrance. Those responsible knew that in a modern arena and with up to 1,200 spectators per home game 🏟️, a different system was needed – efficient, transparent and future-proof.
The solution: ditix digitizes the entire ticket process 💡
Online Booking
Direct seat selection
Admission via QR code + automated scanning terminals
Even long-time visitors who bought their tickets at the box office for decades were successfully introduced 👏 to the new solution.
Jonas Frank, Managing Director of HCOB, puts it in a nutshell:
"Our visitors are thrilled! The software is intuitive, saves personnel and ensures relaxed processes. For us, it's the perfect solution – absolutely recommendable for every club."
The result: More time for the essentials ⏳💙
The switch was worth it:
More efficient processes at the entrance
Significantly lower personnel costs 👥
Improved viewer experience through fast, straightforward processes 🙌
In particular, the possibility of booking by seat and 📍 the use of mobile tickets 📱 were very well received. Today, HCOB sells 98% of its tickets online – and fans love the new freedom 🎉.
The best thing about it: The time and energy gained can now flow into what really matters - the fans and the sport 🤾.
