NFT Based Ticket Selling Platform Using Blockchain

Event ticketing systems have long faced challenges such as counterfeiting, scalping, and lack of transparency in resale markets. To address these issues, this research presents the design and development of a blockchain-based ticketing platform that leverages Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) to ensure secure, transparent, and verifiable ticket distribution. The primary aim of the study is to explore how blockchain technology can enhance trust, eliminate fraud, and provide users with full ownership of their tickets. The proposed system employs smart contracts to automate ticket creation, distribution, and resale, thereby minimizing the need for intermediaries. Each ticket is represented as a unique NFT, guaranteeing authenticity and enabling traceability throughout its lifecycle. The methodology involves implementing a decentralized application where event organizers can mint NFT tickets, and users can securely purchase, transfer, or resell them using blockchain infrastructure. The results demonstrate that NFT-based tickets effectively prevent duplication and unauthorized sales while providing an immutable record of ownership. Additionally, organizers gain better control over pricing policies, while buyers benefit from secure transfers and enhanced transparency. In conclusion, this platform contributes to solving long-standing issues in the ticketing industry by combining blockchain’s immutability with NFTs’ uniqueness. The study highlights the potential of decentralized technologies to revolutionize digital ticketing, improve user trust, and create a more efficient event management ecosystem.
