Bookwhen vs ClubReady

Bookwhen is an online booking system for classes, courses, events, activities and experiences. Organizers can publish booking pages, schedule recurring events, offer multiple ticket types and manage group bookings. Custom forms, waiting lists, discounts and passes add options for handling registrations. Customers can pay online through Stripe, PayPal or WorldPay, or use offline payment options; payment providers charge separate processing fees. Bookwhen says free bookings and bookings marked paid offline carry no fee. Pages can be embedded in websites built with WordPress, Wix or Squarespace. The service can create Zoom meetings automatically and embed YouTube or Vimeo videos on secure attendee pages. Its API provides event data for website integration, while calendar sync is one-way. Bookwhen describes its web app as mobile-first and designed for mobile and tablet use. The Free plan allows 50 bookings per month, one team member and one booking page, for free events only. Paid plans start at $16 per month. The company is based in Oxford, England.
