Tickera – Sell Tickets & Manage Events

76 Quality Score

Active Installs

15/30

At 2,000 active installs it is a small player compared to alternatives like Event Tickets and Registration at 90,000 installs, but the cap on the score is generous.

Update Freshness

25/25

A perfect maintenance score: last updated July 2026, tested against WordPress 7.0.1, and the plugin clearly receives regular developer attention.

User Rating

14/15

A 90/100 user rating from 287 reviews is strong and signals high satisfaction among current users.

Support Health

8/15

Only 6 support threads exist in the data, with all 6 marked resolved, giving a 100% resolution rate but a very small sample size that limits confidence.

WP Compatibility

15/15

The plugin declares compatibility with WordPress 7.0.1 and requires PHP 5.6, which is reasonable though PHP 5.6 is end-of-life and worth flagging for security-focused sites.

What It Does

Tickera is a WordPress plugin that turns a site into a ticketing platform: it lets you create events, sell tickets through your own checkout, and issue PDF tickets with QR or barcode codes for check-in. It handles the full sale flow from order to ticket delivery without redirecting visitors to a third-party service. The add-on ecosystem covers things like Apple Wallet passes, seating, and payment gateway extensions.

Who It's For

This is best for small to mid-sized event organizers (conference hosts, venue operators, workshops, meetups, or community groups) who want to sell tickets directly from their existing WordPress site rather than pay ongoing per-ticket fees to Eventbrite or similar services. It suits site owners comfortable with WordPress basics who want an all-in-one solution and are willing to buy paid add-ons to expand features.

Who Should Skip It

If you run high-volume public events with tens of thousands of attendees, or need a polished front-end event calendar and community submission features, you will likely outgrow Tickera quickly. Sites needing tight integration with The Events Calendar or a built-in registration toolset should look at alternatives in this category instead.

The Bottom Line

Tickera scores a solid 75.78/100 with excellent maintenance, strong user ratings, and a healthy support track record on a small sample. The main trade-off is the modest install base of 2,000 sites and the reality that several key features require paid extensions. If you are willing to invest in the add-ons and want a self-hosted ticketing system, it is a credible option worth a trial on a staging site.
