Zoos & Aquariums and Animal Parks
Running a Zoo, Aquarium and Animal Park is about so much more than any other visitor attraction. It’s as much about education as it is about entertainment. Large groups, families and frequent visitors will be a vital part of your ticketing needs. An excellent Membership module will be an essential requirement.
It is about ensuring that your customers enjoy their day out and take advantage of all the exhibitions, catering and retail opportunities that you have on offer. A robust ticketing system from WebTicketManager will ensure that all aspects of your business are covered and you can focus on making your destination world-beating and memorable for every visitor. Read on to discover how our platform can deliver everything you expect from a ticketing system all in one place.
Features
Instant ticketing: Whether your customers are buying their tickets online, from a third-party site or in person, they need their tickets to be delivered to them immediately and available on their mobile device or as a printable or paper format.
Group Booking Module: Zoos, aquariums and animal parks are wonderful attractions for all kinds of group parties. Schools and playgroups, corporate functions and tour operator bookings all need to be dealt with in different ways and you need a ticketing system that will give you the flexibility you need to consider dietary needs, time limits, disabilities, and age ranges.
Maximise revenue streams: Increasing your park revenue will mean that you can plough that money back into the care and conservation of your animals. Our platform is designed to allow you to sell your tickets via third parties as a reciprocal arrangement, social media and via your own branded site. This all results in more eyes seeing your attraction and more people buying tickets.
Fast and free set-up: We don’t charge for your initial set-up, and it can be completed in as little as 2 hours. You’ll be on your way in no time – with no downtime at all.
Payment processing: If you prefer, we can look after all of your payment processing and ensure that when you sell a ticket to your zoo and animal park, you receive the money into your account without delay.
Flexible contract: We understand the zoos and animal parks operate differently throughout the year. Sometimes you may close for periods of time during the winter months. We never lock our customers into lengthy contracts, allowing you to only use and pay for our services when you need them. Although, remember that the more tickets you sell, the lower your fees!
Reporting and analytics: Understanding the behaviour of your visitors and the metrics of your ticket sales can help you to plan your business going forward. You have full access to the data related to your ticket sales in handy, easy to understand reports.

How WebTicketManager works
Setting up your ticket selling platform with WebTicketManager is fast and free. We can set up a basic selling site in as little as 2 hours and we only charge you once you start selling. Our fee structure starts at 4% of the ticket price and when your revenue builds to more than £100,000, the fees you pay start to fall.

Having additional channels to sell your tickets will give your ticket sales a huge boost. Here’s how this unique module works: Local attractions in your area can sell tickets to your zoo or animal park on your behalf and you will return the favour. In return you receive 10% of the ticket sale value every time you sell a ticket. Not only can you capitalise on the visitors that are in your area, but you are supporting the local network of attractions.
Interactions with your existing software
WebTicketManager is designed to work seamlessly with your existing software – ensuring minimal downtime and giving you a host of benefits when it comes to seeing the overall picture of your destination. We offer the following modules to enhance your platform and really get those tickets moving:
Membership: WTM360 is great for targeting those customers who have become members or patrons of your zoo or animal park. This means you can reward them with special deals, discounts and marketing designed to keep them coming back.
Gift Vouchers: Take advantage of our gift voucher module to give your visitors a chance to experience the fun at a time that suits them. Every family will truly appreciate a gift voucher that
offers them special access and benefits all year round or just for one visit.
Events: Most major attractions and destinations want to offer special events all year round. Christmas, Halloween, Valentines Day and even weddings, and special celebrations. More and more people are looking for special venues and places to go. WebTicketManager makes life easier for you, your staff and, most importantly, your customers.
