This week, Eventbrite effectively raised pricing for all of their event organizers, especially for those who only needed their "Essentials" package. That tier has been eliminated, and the remaining "Professional" package fees were raised to 3.7% + $1.79 ticket, along with a 2.9% payment processing fee. Large organizers may still be able to negotiate custom rates through EB's "Premium" tier.
Luckily, Qwitix might be the perfect subsitute for Eventbrite organizers who will miss the "Essentials" package the most. Qwitix offers hosted event pages, online ticket sales, guestlist check-in tools, and fast payouts for just 4% + $0.50 per ticket (which includes payment processing!). Here's what the difference in fees looks like:
Ticket |
Qwitix |
Eventbrite |
|---|---|---|
| $5 | $0.70 | $2.12 |
| $10 | $0.90 | $2.45 |
| $25 | $1.50 | $3.44 |
| $50 | $2.50 | $5.09 |
