Several studies have shown the power of Facebook to promote ticket sales.  Friends want to be where their other friends are and fans want to commune with fans. But what about Facebook as a place to actually sell tickets? Existing Facebook ticketing solutions have required users to leave the social network and log in to an external system to complete the transaction.  Yesterday, Ticketfly launched app that eliminates that complexity.

Ticketfly's Facebook Purchase enables promoters to sell tickets directly from their Facebook Fan Pages creating a purchasing experience that encourages social discovery and sharing. Key features:

Single sign-on with Facebook Connect allows fans to buy tickets using their Facebook identity, without leaving Facebook

Quick installation process allows promoters to start selling tickets on Facebook within minutes

Integration with Ticketfly's Facebook RSVP and Share features promotes social discovery

Real-time analytics reporting provides integrated Facebook sales performance data

Social graph integration lets Facebook users see what events their friends are attending

You can see the Facebook Purchase ticket app in action on the Brooklyn Bowl's Facebook page.
