1. An attendee device, comprising:
- a processor-readable, non-transitory memory that stores computer executable components; and
a processor that executes the following computer executable components stored in the memory;
a communication component configured to receive ticket data indicative of a privilege to enter a venue for one or more people;
a first component configured to detect receipt of proximity data from a venue beacon;
a redemption component configured to, in response to detection of the proximity data from the venue beacon;
perform a self-validation procedure in which the attendee device validates the ticket data, andin response to the ticket data being validated, generate at least a portion of verification data that is representative of an indication the ticket data was self-validated; and
a presentation component that instructs the attendee device to present the verification data, wherein the verification data comprises a code indicating a validity duration and indicates that one or more people are associated with a privilege to enter the venue.

Abstract
When attending an event at a venue, the attendee typically presents ticket information that is scanned by a venue scanner. The process associated with scanning can be dispensed with, which can improve attendee experiences, reduce costs associated with managing a venue, as well as other advantages. For example, instead of scanning a ticket at a point of ingress to the venue, a device of the user can self-scan the ticket, and then present indicia that indicates this process has occurred. The indicia can be presented to a guest services representative, who can verify that a valid ticket was redeemed by merely observing the indicia and without scanning.

15. A computer implemented method, comprising:
employing an attendee device comprising a processor to execute instructions of an application to; detect receipt of a signal from a venue device, wherein the signal from the venue device is not perceptible using human senses; determine that ticket data is present on the attendee device, the ticket data indicative of a privilege to enter a venue; at least partly in response to determining that the ticket data is present on the attendee device, perform a self-validation procedure in which the attendee device validates the ticket data, and in response to the ticket data being validated using the self-validation procedure, cause at least a portion of verification data, that is representative of an indication the ticket data was self-validated, to be presented by the attendee device, wherein the verification data comprises a code valid for a first period of time wherein the code indicates that one or more people are associated with a privilege to enter the venue. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause an attendee device including a processor to perform operations, comprising:
-
detect receipt of a data signal from a venue device, wherein the data signal from the venue device is not perceptible using human senses; determine that ticket data is present on the attendee device, the ticket data indicative of a privilege to enter a venue; at least partly in response to determining that the ticket data is present on the attendee device, perform a self-validation procedure in which the attendee device validates the ticket data, and in response to the ticket data being validated using the self-validation procedure, cause at least a portion of verification data, that is representative of an indication the ticket data was self-validated, to be presented by the attendee device, wherein the verification data comprises a code valid for a first period of time wherein the code indicates that one or more people are associated with a privilege to enter the venue.
