How it works
Open the app, add the tickets, take the tap.
Open the check-in app
Install the TixFox app on iPhone or Android and open your event. No card reader to set up, nothing extra to buy or charge.
Add tickets to the sale
Pick the ticket types and quantities for the walk-up buyer. The app totals it up instantly, fees and all.
Tap to pay
The buyer taps their card, phone, or watch to the back of yours. Payment clears in seconds and their ticket is issued on the spot.
Everything the door needs
Take payments, issue tickets, and check people in — all from one phone.
No card reader needed
Accept contactless cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and smartwatches with just the phone in your pocket. Nothing extra to buy, rent, or charge.
Works on iPhone & Android
Tap to Pay runs on supported recent iPhone and Android devices. Your whole team can take payments from their own phones at the same time.
Ticket issued instantly
The moment a payment clears, the buyer gets the same e-ticket and QR code as your online buyers — emailed and ready to scan straight away.
Secure by design
Card details are never stored on the device. Every tap runs through the same encrypted payment flow that powers your online checkout.
Door sales in your dashboard
Walk-up sales land in the same real-time analytics and attendee list as your online orders, so your numbers always add up at the end of the night.
Sell and check in together
Switch between selling tickets and scanning entry in the same app. One phone, one staff member, handles the whole door.
Common questions
Do I need a card reader or any extra hardware?
No. Tap to Pay uses the contactless chip already built into your phone. As long as you have a supported iPhone or Android device, you can take card payments at the door — nothing to buy, rent, or charge.
Which phones support Tap to Pay?
Tap to Pay works on supported recent iPhone and Android devices. Your buyer can pay with a contactless card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a smartwatch.
What does the buyer get after paying at the door?
Their ticket appears in your check-in app the instant payment clears, so you can admit them with a single tap — no scanning needed, since the ticket is already on the device in your hand. They also get the same e-ticket and QR code emailed to them.
Do door sales show up with my online sales?
Yes. Every walk-up sale flows into the same real-time analytics and attendee list as your online orders, so your totals stay accurate.
Can my staff take payments too?
Yes. Give a check-in assistant the sell-on-site permission and they can take payments and check people in from their own phone, without access to your account or financials.
