“As we continue to prepare for the reopening of theatre after this long interval, it’s essential we continue to innovate to ensure a safe theatregoing experience for audiences. London Theatre Direct continues to lead the charge to get theatres open safely and efficiently while ensuring the maximum customer confidence and streamlined contactless access,” said the co-founder and CEO of London Theatre Direct, Francis Hellyer.
In order to support digital ticketing for Android users via Google Wallet and other third-party Android wallet apps, London Theatre Direct is working closely with all major performance venues to which it remains connected via seamless integrations.
Now, purchasing tickets to both West End and UK events has never been more fast, easy, and convenient. The option to download tickets straight to Google Wallet not only provides an extra level of security but will also prove to be vital in ensuring that theatres can reopen contact-free thanks to scanned entry.
