In addition to a new online ticketshop for fans, there will also be a portal for business supporters to access their business tickets (and from where they can invite their guests).

The Tymes4 ticketing platform was developed several years ago by Ormer ICT and originated from the need of professional football clubs (BVOs) to professionalise their ticketing processes in terms of digitalisation and fan experience. Currently, 2/3rds of all Eredivisie clubs work with Tymes4.

Thomas Overdevest, ticketing coordinator at Sparta Rotterdam: “We are very pleased to conclude a multi-year agreement with Ormer ICT and start using the ticketing platform Tymes4 after the winter break. Tymes4 has proven itself as a platform and is going to give us additional opportunities to improve the processes around ticketing.”

Frank van Eijsden, COO of Ormer ICT Software Development, is very excited about the cooperation with Sparta: “Sparta Rotterdam is of course a wonderful club and the oldest professional club in the Netherlands with a beautiful history. Located just a stone’s throw from our head office, we had of course been chasing a partnership for some time. Fantastic that we finally succeeded. We are very happy with the trust and look forward to working together!”
