Embodiments of a present disclosure relate to event management and more particularly to a token event wallet for preventing misdemeanor behavior during events.
Generally, most consumers typically use paper tickets or e-tickets for entry to a specific event, such as a music concert, cinema and the like. For example, the tickets for events may be bought from online ticket sellers and the bought tickets are received by the consumers via e-mail or text. The consumers generally show the received tickets to ticket checker on electronic devices, such as smartphone, to enter the event. Further, the consumers frequently buy multiple products at the events, such as food, beverages, mugs, merchandise and the like. However, the consumers may cause misdemeanour behaviour by throwing the bought multiple products, and the like. The misdemeanour behaviour may disrupt the ongoing event or may even cause some serious consequences. Thus, it is very essential to track each of the consumers to maintain dignity during the event and take immediate action for any misdemeanour behaviour. However, conventional methods of tracking the consumers require expensive solutions like camera placements and manpower. Thus, the conventional methods are expensive and consumes a lot of time.
