The event ticketing experience between TicketSpice and Eventbrite are vastly different. Here are a few things to keep in mind.
If you browse Eventbrite's events, their page template looks similar to the example. Which means you're competing with other events in your area.
TicketSpice structures your event ticketing page in a completely different way, where it's all about you.
When you host your event with Eventbrite, their logo adorns the top of your ticketing page. It's on the top of nearly every event page and not likely to be removed.
We’re not in competition with your brand. When you host your event using TicketStpice, your branding and logo reigns supreme.
Alongside their logo, the top of your event page contains their own main navigation. A typical Eventbrite ticketing page has over a dozen external links not related to your specific event.
Your event page on Eventbrite can contain links to other events at the bottom of your page. Here’s how they sometimes look.
Eventbrite's fees can get expensive for high priced events, and they've even eliminated their maximum fee cap. Eventbrite charges a ticketing fee of 3.7% + $1.79 per attendee + monthly fees, and with no limit or maximum fee per attendee. You may choose who pays the fee (you or your attendees), but Eventbrite charges and receives the fee.
Eventbrite has also raised their prices 10 times over the years. Yes, 10. We even created a handy timeline to show all their pricing shenanigans over the years.
There are a few things you might want to be aware of in the terms of service and privacy policy.
Data sharing with affiliates
They have permission to use your attendees’ data for their internal business purposes and to share with their parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates.
Solicitation of attendees
Eventbrite’s terms of service include giving them permission to send offers and solicitations to your customers for other events.
Delayed funding
Eventbrite generally waits until 4-5 days after your event to send you your funds. Eventbrite also reserves the right to withhold a percentage of your funds at its discretion.
Buyers tracked for advertising
Eventbrite has permission to track attendees based on behaviors and display ads for other events later.
