How much does Eventbrite charge per ticket?

Eventbrite's US pricing page lists a 3.7% + $1.79 service fee per paid ticket plus a 2.9% payment processing fee per order. Buyers pay by default, and free events have no fees. Fees vary by country, so check Eventbrite's pricing page.

Is Valore a free Eventbrite alternative?

Hosting on Valore is free, with unlimited events and guests. Free events cost nothing, and paid tickets check out through Stripe. See Valore's pricing page for current ticketing details.

Can I still get discovered without Eventbrite's marketplace?

Valore has a Discover page and city pages with a weekly digest, and every calendar can be subscribed to. Referral leaderboards and tracking links help guests bring friends. Eventbrite's marketplace is bigger, though, so weigh that if discovery is your main channel.

Does Valore support paid tickets like Eventbrite?

Yes: free, paid and pay-what-you-want tickets, hidden tiers unlocked by a code, coupons, capacity limits, taxes and fees, receipts, and full or partial refunds.

Valore vs Eventbrite

Valore vs Eventbrite: A marketplace giant vs. a modern hosting platform.
