Ever found yourself in a virtual queue when buying tickets online? You’re not alone! At GOERS, we have a waiting room feature designed to make your ticket-buying experience smoother and fairer. But don’t worry, it’s not as complicated as it sounds! Let’s break down what the waiting room is all about, why you might encounter it, and some tips to keep your place in line secure.
What’s the Waiting Room?
Think of the waiting room as a virtual lobby before you enter the main ticket-purchasing area. If the sale hasn’t started yet, you’ll be in the pre-queue page, letting you know the queue isn’t open yet. Once the queue opens, you’ll see the waiting room page, which shows how many people are ahead of you and the estimated waiting time. This keeps things organized, especially when everyone’s rushing to get their hands on those coveted tickets!
Why Am I Seeing This?
There are two main reasons why you might be directed to the waiting room:
- The sale hasn’t started yet: In this case, you’ll chill in the pre-queue page and get a unique Queue ID based on your device and browser. Just hang tight!
- The queue is long: This happens when the sale is live and tons of people are trying to buy tickets at the same time. Our system ensures everyone gets a fair shot!
Tips to Stay in the Game
Here are some tips to ensure you don’t lose your spot and snag those tickets:
- Open only one tab during a ticket war: When trying to get tickets during a ticket war, it’s best to open only one tab so the system doesn’t flag your activity as spam or a bot. Opening multiple tabs at once may reduce your chances of getting a ticket.
- 10 minutes is key: Once it’s your turn, you’ll have 10 minutes to complete your purchase. Don’t miss that window! After 10 minutes, your spot will expire, and you’ll need to rejoin the queue.
- Keep checking the website after the initial rush: Even if you’re in the queue, tickets might sell out before your turn. But don’t give up! Keep an eye on the GOERS website. Sometimes, additional tickets become available, so stay vigilant!
The waiting room on GOERS is all about making the ticket-buying process fair and square, especially for high-demand events. No need to stress – follow these simple steps and you’ll be good to go! So, be patient, and get ready to enjoy your awesome event!
