Nonprofit event ticketing: Custom registration systems.

Using third-party ticketing platforms like Eventbrite for annual charity galas and benefit concerts forces your supporters off-site, charges 3.7% + $1.79 per ticket in service fees, and keeps attendee contact data trapped in a closed ecosystem.

Building a custom nonprofit event registration and ticketing system directly on your website eliminates ticketing surcharges, keeps 100% of attendee data, and handles complex nonprofit needs like corporate table sponsorships and dietary preferences.

"A $500 gala ticket on Eventbrite incurs over $20 in service fees. On a 300-person event, that is $6,000 in lost charitable revenue."
