Hey all, creator here
I created Attendize as I was tired of ticket selling platforms charging such extortionate fees. I couldn't find any decent open-source alternatives that didn't rely on WordPress, were fully mobile friendly, or were actively developed.
It's in the early stages of development but I plan on adding far more features over the coming months.
Happy to answer any questions.
Cheers!
@ryanminnick Right now the main goal is to iron out any bugs and get a stable beta released. The features I hope to have complete for v1.0.0 can be seen here: https://goo.gl/l33KOi . Feel free to suggest any features you'd like added too! Cheers
@dredurr For paid ticket events, Eventbrite charges 2.5% of the ticket price plus $0.99 per ticket, plus a 3% payment processing fee in U.S. dollars. With this, you're paying just Stripe's transaction fees once you set it up on a server.
@joshbarkin@dredurr But if price is the only compelling factor, what makes this product not a commodity? How does it compare to Splash, Cvent, Nvite, or the many other ticketing platforms beyond just lower fees? Maybe the fees are what they are because that's what it takes to be a sustainable entity.
@mvkel@joshbarkin@dredurr the complexities of making such a project isnt that complicated. Thus the fee should be closer to zero. Processing the payment it self is a bit trickier and a longer discussion. But in time it will also be closer to zero.
@mvkel@joshbarkin@dredurr a mid-size organization can pay upwards of $20,000 per year to companies like Cvent for providing what Attendize is Open-Sourcing here (per-ticket fees add up quickly with 250+ attendees per event and multiple events per year). It's a market disruptor for non-profits and other cost-driven organizations. Will be looking very closely at this, as it will visually integrate better with our platform than other solutions we've explored.
