FIXR secures £6.5 m in funding and teams up with the UK’s leading nightclub chain

Nightlife’s New Best Friend: FIXR & REKOM UK Team Up

When the UK opened its doors back to late‑night revelers on Monday, 21 June, a fresh partnership was already in place to make sure everyone can get back on the dance floor without a hitch.

What’s Happening?

FIXR – the digital ticketing giant – is now a white‑label, ready‑to‑use service for REKOM UK.
Customers can snag tickets via REKOM’s individual bar and club sites (thanks to FileR’s slick integration) or straight from the FIXR website/app.
REKOM UK runs 42 bars and clubs around the country, including famed names like PRYZM, CAMEO, and ATIK, making it the biggest venue operator in the UK by square footage.
In 2019, these venues welcomed a whopping 7 million guests—now they’re ready to serve them again, with the help of a modern ticket platform that can handle everything from staffing to ticket sales.

Why the Shake‑Up?

With the pandemic‑era move to a cashless, digital first world, venues that don’t keep pace risk losing out on the roaring crowd. According to FIXR’s CEO, Edmund Glover: “Our tech is primed to replace clunky legacy systems, empowering both seasoned promoters and one‑off event planners to breeze through the whole process effortlessly.”

Also, FIXR’s recent Series A raise brought in more than £6.5 million from investors like FSE Group, Armajaro Holdings, and the Smith & Williamson team, turning it into the go‑to online hub for event creators.

Stats that Pop Your Bubble

Ticket sales on the platform surged nearly 300% by April 2021 compared to pre‑pandemic figures.
The UK’s unlock means a surge of consumers—particularly the 18‑25 crowd—ready to tear up the dance floor again.

From REKOM’s Perspective

The spokesperson for REKOM UK summed it up nicely: “We saw a real opportunity to grow our digital reach. FIXR offered a system that’s both user‑friendly for fans and gives managers full control—anytime, from anywhere.”

The Bottom Line

Thanks to this dynamic duo, getting tickets is easier than ever. The fast, “cashless‑everything” vibe that’s taken over means venues that want to thrive must adapt—otherwise, they’ll be left on the sidelines. Whether you’re a top‑tier music hall or organizing a local charity dance, FIXR’s platform promises a smoother, more profitable event.
