Know Before U Go
An e-commerce platform for discounted Orlando theme park tickets, with live supplier pricing and two storefront brands on one codebase.
Project overview
Know Before U Go sells discounted tickets for Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando, SeaWorld and other Orlando attractions. We built both generations of the platform between 2021 and 2026: first a Laravel and Livewire store, then, from 2023, a rebuilt platform with a Nuxt front end and a Laravel API.
Prices and availability come directly from the official ticketing supplier systems for Disney and Universal. Visitors choose how many days they need, see a price for every arrival date on a calendar, and book through a timed cart and a Stripe checkout.
The same codebase runs a second brand, Orlando Park Discounts, with its own domain, content and admin area. Staff manage products, deals, articles, SEO, affiliates, orders and reports from one back office.
