Frequently Asked Questions
You create events in your app with ticket types (General Admission, VIP, Early Bird, etc.). Customers purchase tickets through your app via Stripe. They receive a QR code ticket which you scan at the door using the check-in scanner in your dashboard. It's that simple.
Zero platform fees from us. The only transaction fee is Stripe's standard payment processing (approximately 2.9% + 30p per transaction). Compare this to Eventbrite's 6-8% per ticket — on 100 tickets at £15, you'd save over £90.
Absolutely. Many venues start by running both in parallel. Sell through your app to build your direct audience while still listing on Eventbrite for discovery. Over time, you can shift more sales to your own app and keep more revenue.
After purchase, customers receive an email confirmation with their ticket QR code. They can also view their tickets anytime in the app. The QR code works offline, so even if there's no signal at the door, check-in still works.
Yes! Use the Event Check-In Scanner from your dashboard on any phone or tablet. Scan the customer's QR code to validate their ticket, mark attendance, and prevent duplicates. You'll see real-time attendance counts as people check in.
You can feature sponsors and partners throughout your app — on a dedicated sponsors page, in headers/footers, and more. This is perfect for brewery partnerships, local business deals, or event-specific sponsorships. Many venues use sponsor revenue to offset their subscription costs.
Yes. The Free plan is $0 forever for up to 10 app users with every feature included — events, push notifications, ticket scanning, even App Store and Google Play publishing. No credit card required to start.
Yes. Plans are month-to-month with no contracts. If you cancel, your app stays live until the end of the billing period, and you can drop back to the Free plan anytime.
Yes. Import past attendee email lists via CSV at any time, then invite them into your app via push, email, or QR. They get access to upcoming events instantly — no rebuild required.
You do. Every app user, push subscriber, ticket buyer, and check-in event is yours and fully exportable any time. We never share or resell attendee data.
