North West ticketing firm signs up Tiger Tiger owners

A Manchester digital ticketing company has signed a lucrative contract with the owners of nightclub chain Tiger Tiger.

Fatsoma will become the exclusive ticket agent for Novus Leisure, owners of 48 venues across the country, including eight Tiger Tiger’s.

On target to hit £7.5m in revenue this year, Fatsoma recently secured investment from the North West Fund for Digital & Creative as it targets rapid expansion in 2014.

Ben Taylor, director, said: “Novus has made a substantial investment into its digital operations and outlined its intentions to become a market leader for digital. We’re delighted to be working alongside them and confident that together we can achieve those objectives.”

Ollie Taylor, digital development manager at Novus, added: “Fatsoma are like an extension of our marketing department, providing our business with extremely easy-to-use, intuitive tools to allow us to sell and increase online ticket sales.

“We’ve enjoyed a successful relationship with them in the past and are looking forward to strengthening it with this deal.”

Fatsoma’s platform uses social media to sell tickets for event promoters, venue owners and festival organisers and is currently used by 8,000 UK businesses.
