Fundraising requests may include information related to specific dates, details of the organization looking to fundraise, proof of eligibility of fundraiser, choosing of prizes, choosing the type of game or event, ticket design, payment options, tracking of ticket sellers, tracking of tickets, or any other suitable information that may be useful. For purchasers of tickets, level two allows them to play their tickets when connected to a game, register purchased tickets, choose prizes, or any other options set by an administrator. Level three provides administrative access to system 10. Level three requires a secure authentication for access and allows administrators to make changes to system 10, vet and approve fundraisers, set up a new fundraiser, confirm payments, generate tickets, provide statistics, complete fundraisers, provide prize options, set rules and regulations, set policies, look up financial statistics, or any other useful function for a system administrator. Generally, access to level two and level three will be found on level one but require an authentication to gain access to these levels.
[0035] Ticket validator 20 may be found on one or both of level one and level two of user interface 14.
When found on level one, ticket validator 20 is more easily accessed as generally there is no requirement for user authentication prior to use. However, for added security, ticket validator 20 may be found on level two after a potential purchaser has registered and signs into the more secure portion of user interface 14.
When found on level one, ticket validator 20 is more easily accessed as generally there is no requirement for user authentication prior to use. However, for added security, ticket validator 20 may be found on level two after a potential purchaser has registered and signs into the more secure portion of user interface 14.
[0036] The type of game or event that relates to the tickets for the fundraiser may be chosen by a fundraising consumer, or game or event administrator when the tickets do not specifically relate to a Date Regue/Date Received 2022-11-16 fundraiser. The types of games or events may be limited by administrators. For fundraisers, it may be common to choose skill-based e-sport games, memory games, or other suitable nonrandom games.
However, it will be understood by a person skilled in the art that other types of games and random chance lotteries may be used. For games that are considered gambling, game or event administrators may be required to show proof of necessary permissions to run such a game.
However, it will be understood by a person skilled in the art that other types of games and random chance lotteries may be used. For games that are considered gambling, game or event administrators may be required to show proof of necessary permissions to run such a game.
[0037] Providing tickets 22 for a game or event that may be validated as authentic before purchase can be comforting for purchasers. This may be accomplished by providing a database 16 with ticket information that can be used to match information found on tickets 22 to information from database 16. Information on tickets 22 may be entered into a user interface 14 using a user input 18. Generally, this will include confirming that the ticket 22 has the correct information related to date, location, and type of game or event. The information entered into user interface 14 is send to database 16 for comparison with the ticket information found in the database 16. For greater security, a ticket validator is provided that allows for the validation of tickets 22 using a dual validation system. Ticket validator 15 20 has a first validation 24 and a second validation 26. Both the first validation 24 and the second validation 26 are entered into user interface 14 using user input 18 and the information is sent to database 16 to confirm a match of information between ticket validator 20 and ticket information in database 16. First validation 24 and second validation 26 may be randomly generated and may include taking a photograph of the ticket 22 for comparison purposes, scanning bar codes, scanning OR codes, 20 security tags, RFID detections, entering alpha-numeric codes, or any other means known to a person skilled in the art. Depending on the type of information being compared, user input 18 may include cameras, scanners, keyboards, screens, and other useful tools. Once ticket validator 20 has been used and information has been confirmed as matching, purchasers can make their ticket purchases with confidence. Visual notifications that confirm the authenticity of ticket 22 may be seen on user interface 14. Other notifications such as sound, tactile response, and any other suitable notifications known to a person skilled in the art may also be used. Notifications may also provide information detailing if ticket 22 is playable, already played, lost, or stolen.
[0038] A processor 28 for running a game may be provided when the information entered using user input 18 matches ticket information in database 16. This may allow immediate access to online games after a ticket 22 has been purchased. As a part of running the processor, a check may be made in database 16 to confirm payment for the ticket 22 has been received before access to a game is Date Regue/Date Received 2022-11-16 permitted. This can help to prevent a ticket from being used before it is purchased. A game code 30 may be provided on ticket 22 that allows for more simple access to an online game.
[0039] Any use herein of any terms describing an interaction between elements is not meant to limit the interaction to direct interaction between the subject elements, and may also include indirect interaction between the elements such as through secondary or intermediary structure unless specifically stated otherwise.
[0040] In this patent document, the word "comprising" is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A
reference to an element by the indefinite article "a" does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be one and only one of the elements.
