TierBook
TierBook is a sponsor CRM for event teams selling sponsorship packages and managing what each sponsor receives. It converts purchased benefits into fulfillment tasks, then gives sponsors a portal for uploads, forms, contacts, and approvals. Teams can build booth maps, set selection windows by sponsorship tier, and let sponsors choose booths through a live portal. The system connects sponsor activity with WooCommerce orders, invoices, payment status, and accounts receivable. Reports cover revenue, sponsor rollups, booths, engagement, fulfillment, and collections, with CSV exports for every report. Sponsors enter through token-based magic links without accounts or passwords. TierBook runs on the customer’s WordPress site and supports ZIP backup and migration. It requires WordPress 5.8 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer; WooCommerce is required for invoice and order checkout flows. The annual plan costs $999 a year for one WordPress installation, unlimited events, and unlimited sponsors.
