In the process of commercialization, it is not difficult to understand that a wide variety of services can be commoditized, and tickets can be used as evidence of the use of services. The more common ticket service is a transportation ticket for transportation, such as a bus ticket, a ticket, etc., the consumer can pre-purchase a ticket with a value, and the ticket is actually used when the vehicle is actually taken. When used, it usually has a receipt unit, and the human or machine checks the authenticity of the ticket and confirms the use of the ticket.

The traditional way of purchasing tickets is usually to go to the ticketing unit to purchase the physical ticket before using the ticket. However, this practice is quite inconvenient for the consumer. First, the ticketing unit often has a different location from the ticket, which often leads to Consumers can't find the ticket office immediately, or they need to go back and forth between the ticket office and the use office. Even if the ticket office, ticket office and usage are in different locations, the consumer must travel around to complete the ticket. transaction. On the other hand, the purchase of physical coupons requires travel to and from the ticketing unit, making the flow of the ticket more complicated, often with doubts about losing the ticket, or neglecting the timeliness of the ticket.

In order to simplify the ticket purchase process, there are systems and technologies for online ticket purchase. The way to purchase tickets online is more flexible. For example, the online ticketing system for online stores (suppliers or personal transactions) Purchase tickets, and then use the mailing, super-commercial ticket collection or on-site (designated location) to collect tickets. In this way, consumers can complete the ticket purchase process without going to the ticket office, saving the time to go to the physical ticket office or wait for the ticket purchase. However, consumers still need to spend extra time and money to complete the ticket-taking action. For example, the mailing time of the ticket and the handling fee or the handling fee of the super-commercial invoice ticket, at the same time, the physical ticket is still easy to lose or Security concerns such as theft.

For ticket transactions, it is more common for ticket vendors to sell tickets to consumers. Today there are also individual-to-individual ticket trading platforms.
