In Africa, access to events (culture, education and sport) has long meant endless queues, counterfeit tickets and opaque distribution channels. TIKERAMA, an Ivorian start-up, has decided to break with these practices by offering a 100% digital ticketing solution, secure and adapted to the realities of the continent. What sets TIKERAMA apart in the event ticketing sector is its ability to combine digital and field. The platform allows tickets to be purchased online, 24/7, via various mobile money or by bank card, but also has physical points of sale spread across Abidjan. This dual hybrid approach guarantees the inclusion of a public that is still poorly banked, reflecting a rare local intelligence in the African technological ecosystem.
In just a few years of existence, TIKERAMA has established itself as the most popular online ticketing platform in Côte d'Ivoire. She handled ticketing for major renowned cultural events such as concerts by Serge Beynaud, Josey, Didi B, Himra, Burna Boy, Fally Ipupa, Aya Nakamura, Dadju, Naza and many others. At the sporting level, the platform is a partner of the Ivorian Football Federation (FIF) and the Ivorian Handball Federation (FIHB), illustrating its ability to manage high-traffic sporting events. Beyond Ivory Coast, TIKERAMA aims to establish itself as the number one in event ticketing across West and Central Africa. In a market estimated at more than 35 billion euros, this solution, designed by Africans for Africans, embodies a clear vision. Namely proving that world-class technological innovation can emerge from the continent.
Faced with the digital transformation that is reshaping the African events industry, TIKERAMA is not just an application. It is the symbol of an Africa which takes control of its digital destiny. By combining technological innovation, local roots and social impact, this startup is repositioning the continent on the global digital scene.
