Billetto is a Danish VC-backed media-tech startup based out of London and Copenhagen. We are growing rapidly and are always on the lookout for passionate and talented people to join our teams in London, Copenhagen and Stockholm.
Billetto is, at its core, a simple self-service ticketing platform, designed to make event creation and selling tickets easier than ever. Unlike traditional ticketing services like Ticketmaster and Eventbrite, Billetto is a social and mobile events community, where people can discover local events and follow their favourite artists, venues and promoters.
In other words, Billetto is taking on the dinosaur ticketing industry, by bringing artists and audiences closer together. We believe passionately in the power of events to change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world. Life revolves around moments and Billetto inspires everybody to do more of what makes them happy.
