• Free to publish unlimited events: Eventbrite recently made its platform and advanced ticketing and built-in marketing tools available to everyone. Organizers of any level can now publish and promote unlimited events and enjoy reduced-cost Pro Plans, helping them boost reach and ticket sales while saving on costs. Standard, low-cost Ticketing Fees will still apply; however, organizers can choose to cover these fees themselves or pass them on to attendees.
• Consolidated payouts: A simplified payout process brings organizers a single payout deposit from funds across all eligible time slots within the organizer’s timed entry event.
• More customizable ticket offerings: A recently launched BOGO (buy one, get one) promotional feature allows organizers to easily offer attendees two tickets for the price of one, helping more people attend their favorite events with friends or family.
• Simplified mobile check-in: An updated interface to the Eventbrite Organizer App makes it easier than ever to check in guests for timed entry events.
