Nigerian Startup Tix Africa Raises Pre-seed Round To Scale

Tix Africa, a self-service ticketing platform for event makers based in Nigeria, has raised a six-figure pre-seed round to expand its event offerings and operations to Ghana and East Africa. The pre-seed funding round was led by HoaQ, with participation from several private equity investors.

Tix Africa is an event technology platform that helps event organizers capture detailed data from participants, hence lowering costs and increasing revenue. The software includes features such as online ticketing, access control, cashless payments, and event reporting to assist event organizers in efficiently planning and delivering events.

Tix Africa will use the funds to expand its technology and events apps, primarily by introducing Tix Pro, a paid version of Tix available on a regular subscription basis. The startup also plans to expand operations to Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, and Egypt in the coming months.
