GET Protocol is a blockchain-based digital ticketing infrastructure provider that builds NFT-powered ticketing solutions to combat fraud, scalping, and opacity in the ticketing industry[1][2][3][4]. It serves event organizers, artists, ticketing companies, and fans worldwide by offering a white-label full-suite ticketing system and a Digital Twin NFT layer for easy blockchain integration, with all tickets registered on-chain immediately upon sale for real-time transparency[2][3]. The platform solves core problems like ticket fraud and scalping through verifiable NFTs, while enabling new features such as decentralized event financing via DeFi and post-event digital collectibles for fan engagement and perpetual revenue[2][3][4]. Battle-tested globally across 121 countries, 217 events per month, and over 1 million tickets sold, GET Protocol demonstrates strong growth momentum, including a €4 million seed VC round and partnerships with 423 unique artists and organizers[1][3][4].
Founded in 2016 (with some sources noting 2017) in Amsterdam, Netherlands, GET Protocol emerged from a vision to revolutionize ticketing by leveraging blockchain and NFTs to make the industry transparent and fraud-resistant[1][2][3]. The founders, though not named in available sources, prioritized a user-centric ethos from inception, designing products that minimize complexity for non-tech-savvy users like event organizers, artists, and fans while bridging mainstream audiences into Web3[2][3][4]. Early traction came from issuing over a million smart tickets across Europe and Asia, proving the protocol's viability in real-world events and establishing it as a scalable infrastructure provider[4].
GET Protocol rides the convergence of blockchain, NFTs, and live events, capitalizing on the post-pandemic surge in digital ticketing and Web3 adoption to address a $100B+ industry plagued by fraud (estimated at 10-20% of sales) and scalping[2][4]. Timing is ideal amid rising DeFi for creator funding and NFT utility beyond speculation, with market forces like regulatory pushes for transparency and fan-owned digital assets favoring on-chain solutions[2][3]. It influences the ecosystem by enabling ticketing companies of any size to integrate blockchain without rebuilding, onboarding millions to Web3 via familiar events, and setting standards for accountable, creator-centric ticketing that could extend to digital twins in music, sports, and beyond[1][3][4].
GET Protocol is poised to capture a larger share of the ticketing market as NFT utility matures and DeFi tools proliferate, with expansions into perpetual royalties, AI-driven personalization, and global partnerships driving next-phase growth beyond its 1M+ ticket milestone[2][3][4]. Trends like tokenized real-world assets and fan economies will shape its trajectory, potentially evolving it into a full Web3 event platform amid regulatory clarity on digital tickets. Its fraud-resistant foundation positions it to disrupt incumbents, strengthening the blockchain ticketing bridge that began in Amsterdam in 2016[1][4].
GET Protocol has raised $4.0M across 1 funding round. Most recently, it raised $4.0M Seed in July 2023.
