Tickets

Tickets are a type of printing products which is an entrance pass to events. The tickets are used to organize concerts, parties, conferences, performances, promotional campaigns, quizzes, etc. Printing of the tickets like other printing, in general, is similar to the printing of flyers or cards but has a number of distinctive features. Since the ticket is a pass to the event which can be not cheap, it is important to protect it from forgery.

The printing of tickets begins with choosing a type of circulation, the printing technology depends on it. Regular tickets are printed with the digital or offset printing. At one side of the tickets there is a perforation, also called a tear line, which is made to tear off the control strip. But for a stronger protection of the tickets you can use variable data printing, embossing, foiling, benday, holograms, scratch stripes or other protection methods. Variable data is the most often printed numbers or barcodes to scan tickets at the entrance. You can glue hologram stickers on tickets that you can forge but it's hard to repeat exactly the same one. You can make a blind stamping or foil stamping of certain elements on the ticket which does not guarantee it will not be forged but more than a simply reliable protection.

When printing tickets in large quantities you can use flex printing presses technology which allows you to apply a benday to your ticket or print luminous ink that glows under neon lighting. You can also print ready-made tickets with a luminescent seal, this is a cheaper option but time-consuming for big numbers of the tickets. To print the tickets for quizzes or lotteries a scratch strip is applied under which variable data is applied which is usually winning numbers. When printing tickets combined protection technologies are used depending on the importance of these ticket.
