Tickets.gfavip.com Overview

Purpose

The main purpose of tickets.gfavip.com is to function like an Eventbrite-style platform tailored for Global From Asia (GFA) events, including community gatherings, partner events, meetups, webinars, and major summits like the Cross Border Summit. It streamlines ticketing by:

Managing event registrations with dynamic application forms for non-premium users and auto-approvals for premium members.
Allowing discounts, coupons, and complimentary tickets for members, speakers, sponsors, and affiliates.
Enabling easy check-in at events via QR codes (scannable on mobile), ticket numbers, or manual lookup using GFAVIP passports.
Generating customizable e-tickets (PDF/JPG) with unique QR codes, names, and event details for seamless entry and networking.
Handling complex event types with FOMO marketing features like batch ticket releases, countdown timers, and scarcity messaging to drive conversions.

This app reduces manual chaos in cross-border payments and event management, ensuring a smooth experience for a global community (USA, China, Thailand).

Interconnecting with the GFAVIP Ecosystem

Tickets.gfavip.com is a key modular component of the GFAVIP ecosystem, which supports cross-border business journeys through interconnected apps for connection, learning, and growth. The ecosystem is centered around the Member Dashboard (account.gfavip.com), providing access to all services. Key interconnections include:

Wallet.gfavip.com (SSO Authentication): Uses the central SSO for user authentication, membership tier checks (free/premium/team), and gems/credits balance queries. Premium users get auto-approvals and discounts, with gems applied for savings.
Profile.gfavip.com (Profile System): Pre-fills and updates user profiles during applications, ensuring data reuse across the ecosystem (e.g., bio, company for event badges).
Checkout.gfavip.com (Payments): Handles pending payments (7-day holds, editable deadlines), invoices, and webhooks for status updates (pending to paid). Supports cross-border methods (Stripe, crypto, banks) with coupons and gems redemption.
Wallet.gfavip.com and Others: Lists active tickets in wallet.gfavip.com for user overview. Integrates with bonus.crossbordersummit.com to check CBS tickets and unlock bonuses (e.g., exclusive content, discounts).
Other Ecosystem Apps: Shares ticket data with Events Calendar (registration sync), Private Forum (post-event access), Masterminds (attendee networking), and Connect Hub (virtual events). Approved tickets trigger badges in badges.gfavip.com and enrollment in account.gfavip.com for resources.

This modular design (refer to mikesblogdesign.com/gfavip) allows tickets.gfavip.com to communicate data via APIs, enabling seamless event participation and bonus unlocking across the ecosystem.

Roadmap

The roadmap for tickets.gfavip.com focuses on building a scalable ticketing platform, with iterative integrations and enhancements. Key phases include:

MVP (v1.0 - Core Features): Implement SSO, event management, dynamic forms, approvals, QR/PDF tickets, FOMO (batches, timers), and mock integrations for checkout/profile. Focus on CBS and meetups.
v1.1 - Integrations: Fully integrate checkout.gfavip.com for real payments (invoices, webhooks) and bonus.crossbordersummit.com for ticket-based bonus unlocking (e.g., check CBS ticket status to grant rewards).
v1.2 - Advanced Management: Enhance admin tools for speakers/sponsors/giveaways, add waitlists with notifications, and improve reports (CSV exports for sales, attendance).
v2.0 - Expansions: Add multi-language (e.g., Chinese frontend at cn.tickets.gfavip.com), WeChat/SMS notifications, virtual event APIs (Zoom, Events.com), and analytics dashboards. Explore multi-tenant features for partner ecosystems.

This roadmap ensures the app supports growing community events while deepening ecosystem ties.
