Turn crowds into
customers you keep.
Live experiences take money at a table and hand back a memory. Gatelyst runs the whole thing — the sale, the line, the messages, the media, the follow-up — and leaves you with the revenue and the customer relationship, instead of a busy day you cannot measure.
Every capability below has carried paying customers on a live floor. What is new is the platform they now run on — and we are onboarding founding operators across motorsports, photo experiences, appearances, convention activations and attractions.
The lifecycle
One path, from the code on your banner to the customer who comes back next season.
- 01Scan
A code on a banner, a car, a table tent. No app, no download.
- 02Sell
Mobile checkout into your own merchant account. Packages, add-ons, walk-ups.
- 03Queue
A virtual line people can leave. Live position and honest wait times.
- 04Engage
Texts when their turn is close. A public board that runs the floor.
- 05Capture
Operators shoot on a phone. Uploads survive a bad hall connection.
- 06Deliver
Branded galleries, digital products and post-experience upsells.
- 07Measure
Funnel, revenue, attachment, wait times, and whose network failed.
The platform
Built from a system that ran a real floor, not from a diagram.
QR commerce
A customer standing in front of you becomes an order in under a minute, on their own phone, without staff touching a terminal.
Virtual queue
People buy, then walk the floor. Position, wait estimate and a text when they are close. Called-and-absent is a state, not a lost sale.
Notifications
Ticket delivery, approaching-turn alerts and gallery links by SMS and email — from your own provider account or ours.
Media capture
Proven liveOperator capture on ordinary phones, with resumable uploads built for venue connectivity, and automatic association to the right customer.
Digital fulfilment
Proven liveBranded galleries, montages and certificates, generated and delivered without anyone editing a file by hand.
Analytics
Conversion, average order value, add-on attachment, queue throughput — and client telemetry that separates "did not buy" from "their connection died".
Public display
Proven liveA screen that runs the floor: who is up, who is on deck, the wait, and a code the hall can scan from twenty feet.
AI voice and show control
Proven liveAnnouncements in a stock voice you choose, generated once and cached, so a full show day costs cents rather than hundreds.
Infrastructure
Bring your own accounts, or use ours. Per service, not all or nothing.
Bring your own keys
For teams that already have provider accounts. Connect them, pay those providers directly, and keep the lower platform fee.
- Your Stripe or Square merchant account
- Your SMS and email providers
- Your storage bucket
- Direct provider billing, no markup
Managed by Gatelyst
RecommendedNo API accounts required. You never create a provider account, copy a key, or configure a webhook. We run the infrastructure and meter what you use.
- A managed sending number for your texts
- Transactional email for tickets and galleries
- Stock AI voices for announcements
- Storage, bandwidth and media processing
Most operators end up mixed: their own card processing, everything else managed. That is a supported configuration, not a workaround — your sales always settle into your own account.
777 Drift
Ride-alongs and merchandise at motorsports events. Gatelyst's founding motorsports partner: riders scan, choose a driver and car, pay, wait in a virtual queue, ride, and collect their footage — all from their phone.
