The end of the paper receipt. Without the friction. Ticket delivers itemized digital receipts to banking apps the moment consumers pay. No email, no QR code, no app to download.
No action required from consumers. Pay with your card. Done.
Works with any POS, any bank, any payment method. One standard.
Eliminate paper, thermal rolls, and maintenance. Save up to 80%.
Four steps from payment to proof of purchase. The consumer does nothing differently. The merchant changes nothing at checkout.
Consumer taps their card, phone, or watch at the terminal. Same payment experience. No email prompt, no phone number, no scanning.
The POS system securely generates an anonymous payment token linked to the itemized receipt data, VAT details, and store identifiers.
Ticket's API matches the payment token with the transaction, normalizes the receipt into a universal format, and routes it to the right destination.
The itemized receipt appears instantly in the consumer's banking app or Ticket vault, linked to the transaction. Stored forever, always searchable.
Two complementary revenue streams: recurring SaaS subscriptions from merchants plus variable transaction fees that scale with usage.
Per-location monthly subscription that covers POS integration, dashboard access, analytics, and support. Tiered by volume.
A micro-fee per receipt processed, charged to the merchant. Decreasing marginal cost at scale creates a flywheel effect.
Ticket isn't just about going paperless. It unlocks workflows that paper receipts made painful or impossible.
Instant proof of purchase for returns. No more lost receipts, faded thermal paper, or "I bought this here, I swear." Linked to the original transaction, always verifiable.
Extended warranty claims require proof of purchase date. Ticket stores receipts permanently with full product details, making warranty validation instant and fraud-proof.
Business travelers spend 20 minutes per trip on expense reports. Ticket receipts are structured data: amount, VAT, merchant, category. Auto-export to accounting tools.
Itemized transaction data enables real spending insights. Not just "45 at Carrefour" but exactly what was purchased. Banks can offer category-level budget tracking.
Ticket sits at the intersection of three stakeholder groups, creating a network effect where each participant increases value for the others.
The supply side. Retailers, restaurants, and service providers who generate receipts at point of sale.
Banks, digital wallets, POS manufacturers, and accounting platforms that distribute receipts to end users.
The demand side. Individuals who receive receipts as proof of purchase for returns, warranties, and expense tracking.
Existing solutions either add friction at checkout or lock receipts into proprietary ecosystems. Ticket is the only universal, zero-friction approach.

Strategic analysis of the digital receipt infrastructure market using established frameworks.
The competitive dynamics that shape this market.
High barriers: POS integration partnerships, bank API access, and regulatory compliance (GDPR, PSD2) create significant moats once established.
POS vendors and cloud providers are commoditized. No single supplier can block market access or extract outsized margins.
Large retail chains have negotiating leverage, but SMBs (80% of market) are price-takers. Regulatory compliance reduces churn.
Paper is being banned. Email/SMS require consumer action. No substitute offers zero-friction universal delivery.
Fragmented market with regional players. No dominant standard yet. First-mover in universal infrastructure wins network effects.
Macro-environmental factors driving digital receipt adoption.
EU Green Deal and French loi AGEC mandate digital-first receipts. Government incentives for retail digitization accelerating adoption.
Thermal paper costs rising 15% YoY. Cost-of-living pressure driving merchants to cut operational waste. SaaS model aligns with OpEx budgets.
Gen Z/Millennial consumers expect digital-first experiences. 73% prefer digital receipts when frictionless. ESG consciousness rising.
Open Banking APIs (PSD2) enable bank-side receipt display. Cloud POS adoption makes SaaS integration feasible at scale.
93% of thermal paper contains BPA/BPS. 12.4B meters of receipt paper used annually in the EU. Sustainability is a boardroom priority.
GDPR compliance required for receipt data. Loi AGEC enforcement tightening. Payment tokenization standards (PCI DSS) must be met.
Ticket is positioned as infrastructure, not a consumer app. We sell to merchants and partners. Consumers benefit automatically.
"The receipt should be as invisible as the payment."
Ticket positions as the Stripe of receipts: developer-friendly infrastructure that integrates with existing payment flows. Not a loyalty app. Not a marketing channel. Pure utility that becomes invisible once deployed.
No consumer action required. No app download, no email, no scanning. The receipt arrives because the payment happened. This is the core differentiator that makes everything else possible.
Works with any POS system, any bank, any payment processor. Open standards, not walled gardens. Merchants integrate once and reach every consumer regardless of their bank.
GDPR-native architecture. PCI DSS tokenization. Consent engine built in. No data collected without explicit opt-in. Designed for regulated industries from day one.
Returns, warranties, expense reports, budgeting. Ticket solves problems people actually have. Every receipt becomes actionable data, not a throwaway slip.
Three models designed for different participants in the ecosystem. No hidden fees. Volume discounts available.
A five-step go-to-market engine that starts with vertical focus and scales through partnerships.
Target high-receipt-volume verticals: grocery, fashion retail, QSR. Prioritize chains with cloud POS and compliance urgency.
Partner with one POS vendor per vertical for a co-branded pilot. Integration once, reach all their merchants. Shared go-to-market.
Onboard pilot merchants with white-glove setup. Measure receipt delivery rates, customer satisfaction, and cost savings.
Productize the pilot results into case studies and ROI calculators. Enable self-serve onboarding for SMBs. Scale through POS partner channels.
Sign bank and wallet partners. Each bank integration multiplies the value of every merchant already on the platform. Network effect kicks in.
Ticket is building the standard infrastructure for digital proof of purchase. One API. Every POS. Every bank. Every transaction.
