The platform accepts major card brands, offline payments, and donations, and says payments transfer directly to organizers. Customers own attendee data and can export lists as CSV or Excel files.

Paid annual-billed plans begin at $5 a month; Personal includes unlimited events, 50 attendees per event, one user, and a 2% ticketing fee.
