The app is available Google Play Store and the app Store. There is also a live push notification system that provides updates regarding an event.
“With the ease and convenience of the App, mobile tickets can be stored in one place for redemption at the venue, including fast-pasts entry to the event,” Murray said.
With more than 100 events to date since its launch in Jamaica in January, Murray said the product continues to revolutionize ticket sales and event experiences in Jamaica.
For these events, Gustazos offers VIP tickets or two-for-one options; however, when these are sold out or persons are not interested in the discounts, they can go to Fangig for regularly priced tickets.
