What Celebratix does

Celebratix B.V. is an Amsterdam-based blockchain-powered event ticketing platform founded in 2022 that operates a unified product suite spanning primary ticket sales, official resale, guestlist management, marketing automation (email, WhatsApp, and CRM), and real-time analytics. The platform is anchored on a blockchain architecture with moving QR codes that refresh every 3 seconds and block screenshots, designed to eliminate ticket fraud and unauthorized duplication, while a fixed-price official resale channel prevents scalper markups and preserves organizer control over secondary-market data. Target customers are mid-market event organizers across five verticals: festivals, clubs, sport events, conferences, and multi-event organizers, with named logos including Liquicity, Jimmy Woo, Breakfast Club, LFL (Dutch MMA), Chicago Social Club, and Korsakov.

The company monetizes through transaction-based service fees embedded in ticket prices and an optional Ticket Protection add-on priced at 8.34% of order value. Revenue mechanics operate as a commercial agent intermediary: Celebratix collects payment from attendees, deducts fees, and remits net proceeds to organizers. Distribution combines a self-serve web platform for smaller organizers with direct enterprise consultation for larger accounts, plus an explicitly stated M&A-led strategy to acquire and migrate local European ticketing providers. Geographic footprint spans seven European countries with venue partnerships in Amsterdam, Hamburg, and Berlin; expansion into Sweden and the United Kingdom is planned alongside a Series A round targeted for 2027.

Recent capital activity includes a November 2024 round from uBIT and a €2.2M growth round from Airbridge Equity Partners in February 2026, earmarked for European expansion and M&A integration. The team is small (1–10 employees), led by CEO and founder Frank Roskam alongside co-founders Hans-Jochem Dijk (CSO), Guy Rombaut (CTO), and Frank Rombaut, and was recognized as Best Newcomer in the Dutch Blockchain Ecosystem in 2023.
