IRVINE, Calif. (Feb. 20, 2025) – Louisiana Tech Athletics (LA Tech) and Paciolan, the leading mobile ticketing, marketing, and fundraising solutions provider for college athletics, have launched a new partnership that will enhance the fan experience for all Bulldog and Lady Techster athletic events.
Through this partnership, LA Tech will be provided a full-service ticketing and fundraising solution, including a fan-friendly web and mobile application that will make it easy for Bulldog fans to purchase, manage, and transfer tickets; track priority points and historical contributions; and donate to the Louisiana Tech Athletic Club (LTAC) or benefit the Bulldog and Lady Techster student-athlete experience with NIL contributions through PAC Fund.
“We are very excited to announce this partnership with Paciolan. Our goal is to create a ‘Fans First’ approach that streamlines our fan experience. The Paciolan platform allows us to combine ticketing purchases and donations into a seamless process for our fans. Now, our fans will have a one-stop shop that will be responsive to their needs. A big thank you to everyone from Louisiana Tech and Paciolan who made this project a reality.”
Ryan Ivey, LA Tech Vice President and Director of Athletics
The Paciolan platform seamlessly integrates into the LA Tech Athletics website and mobile app – both powered by SIDEARM Sports, a division of Paciolan’s parent company, Learfield – and will feature an easy-to-navigate, user-friendly functionality that will facilitate ticket buying and gift giving for LA Tech fans and alumni and LTAC donors.
Beyond ticket buying and gift giving, Bulldog and Lady Techster fans will see a vast improvement in the complete ticket-purchasing process as Paciolan’s digital technology will enable guests to purchase tickets, receive them instantly via text, and scan their tickets at the venue, all on their mobile devices. LA Tech will also take advantage of PACMail, Paciolan’s email marketing solution which allows fans to receive tailored marketing emails alerting them of upcoming events and offers based on their affinities, interests and previous transactions.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Louisiana Tech Athletics to elevate their ticketing, marketing and fundraising solutions. We know how passionate the Bulldog and Lady Techster fanbase is and are excited to provide them with a more enjoyable fan experience from purchase to gameday as well as enhanced email marketing efforts for all LA Tech Athletics events and offers.”
Deana Barnes, President of Paciolan
In addition to SIDEARM Sports, LA Tech also partners with Learfield’s flagship multimedia rights division as well as Learfield Amplify, Learfield’s ticketing, fundraising, and seating division, providing opportunities for each business line to leverage proprietary fan-centric data and services to facilitate revenue generation.
