Founder & CEO of SimpleTix.com, the World's most flexible e-Ticketing Platform. Entrepreneur and software developer by trade. My current role is SimpleTix is to seek out partnerships with other e-commerce platforms, payment gateways, and channel partnership opportunities.
Thermal tickets are printed for movies, theater performances, sporting events, festivals and museums. Want the same ticket-printing capabilities as a pro sports stadium or top movie chain? You can do this with SimpleTix.
You will need a Boca ticket printer. Boca style tickets are 2 inches by 5.5 inches. SimpleTix supports over 15 different layouts. Both vertical and horizontal style layouts. Boca ticket printers cost around $1,500, you can buy used ones for around $1,000.
You can order thermal paper in a variety of types and colors. We recommend:
- Ticket size: 2″ x 5.5″
- Trail edge perforation: 1″
- Right side perf (see the white arrow in this image)
Be sure not order a layout with a double perf, which would be like the lower ticket in this image.
