Biggest opportunity: Swap “event registration”, “tickets” and “ticket sales” for “concerts”, “barcode” and “ticket scanner”. “event registration” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #18. “concerts” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “tickets” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “barcode” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “ticket sales” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “ticket scanner” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

0.5%

of downloads still active

At least 2K of 391K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 940 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 22 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    Tickera is a very well made Ticketing solution. It is made in a way that is mostly all working together with the theme to start. The new ticket designer is amazing as it allows you to easily make and see what the ticket looks like before it is used. I have not completely figured it all out yet, but as a non expert at these things it appears to be relatively simple to setup.

    Fantastic plugin and excellent support. The Tickera team was responsive, helpful and professional. They took the time to understand my ticket export issue, applied a patch directly to the CSV Export plugin, and everything worked perfectly afterwards. I really appreciate their support and highly recommend Tickera for event ticketing.

    We have been using Tickera Premium (with Seating Charts) annually for two national events (exhibition and awards dinner) since 2021. On the odd occasion we need support, it has always been delivered promptly to our satisfaction. We recommend Tickera to anyone who is considering changing from the one of the bigger players who take a commission on sales.

    Really great plugin, even in difficult setups together with WooCommerce – and the support is really great! They very swiftly fixed a problem that we had even though it was with an not official function. Check out their website, they have a ton of FAQs and additional solutions for the experienced user – but the plugin also works “right out of the box”
