7 reasons organisers choose One Ticket over Ticketebo
- Keep every dollar of your price. Set a $25 ticket and you receive $25. The buyer pays a small booking fee on top, so there is nothing to absorb.
- Paid into your own Stripe account. Ticket money is charged to your own Stripe account, with no payout fee from us. Until your first paid event has gone cleanly, it is paid out two days after each event. Ticketebo collects ticket money and pays out after the event, unless you ask its sales team for its Stripe integration.
- A join link on every ticket. For an online event, the join link is on every ticket. On Ticketebo, your own webinar platform delivers the event to ticket holders.
- Check-in from any phone. Scan each guest’s QR code with any phone. There is no app to install, and you can find a guest by name.
- Series and subscriptions, built in. Sell the season, not just the night: subscribers pay on a schedule you set and get the next session’s ticket before it runs.
- No passwords. Sign-in is passwordless, and buyers don’t need an account to book. Tickets arrive by email with a QR code.
- A page that looks like you. Pick your colours, a cover and a button that says Book, Register or RSVP. Guests see your event, not a feed of others.
