https://www.klook.com/ can be one of the option
How does e-ticket actually work? I've never noticed any electronic readers when entering/exiting.
Also, can you download to iPhone and add to Wallet, like a boarding pass?

this ticket is more like traditional one, you need to print it out, pass it to the customer service with your identity document then they will ask you to sign for recipient with the ticket

You don't need to print it out.
You can just tell them the code/ show the ticket Klook sends you at the CS desk. They will check on the system - which usually takes a few minutes and then they give you a normal ticket.
I've never seen a long queue, but that doesn't mean that there are never queues.
