Careem users can now purchase tickets to events across the UAE through its super app. The company has partnered with Tickitto for the same.
“Tickitto has confirmed that its events marketplace (available direct-to-consumers as Tikety.com) will now be available on the Careem app as a ‘Tickets & Passes’ tile through which customers can search for, purchase and manage tickets and bookings for museums, tours, and other activities across the UAE and a full range of music and sports events, theater shows, and live entertainment across the world,” the company said in a statement on Monday.
The app users can now access tours, events and experiences across North America, Europe and Asia by accessing the Tickitto tile on the Careem app.
Events include “the best of Broadway and the West End, top flight professional sports such as English Premier League and the National Football League in the US.”
“Careem customers in the UAE can now book a whole range of exciting events through a single channel, removing the need to navigate multiple ticketing websites with fragmented prices and add-ons or having to repeatedly add payment and identity details,” Careem’s senior director of partnerships Ali Sinai said in a statement, explaining the partnership with Tickitto.
“We’ve worked hard to curate the very best events and attractions in the region and love helping our customers make memories they will cherish forever,” Tickitto’s chief executive officer Dana Lattof added.
Tickitto connected and partnered with the Dubai-based super app through Hub71’s network to give users quick access to the country’s best events.
