Common questions
Is it free for a temple or church?
Creating events is free for every organizer. On paid tickets the buyer pays a flat 75¢ fee plus card processing, and your organization receives the full ticket price. Free events cost nothing.
Can we accept donations?
Yes, with a donation ticket: guests choose how much to give, above a minimum you set. Handle any donation receipts through your organization's usual process.
Can one event cover several days?
Yes. A multi-day event keeps each day's date and time on one page, so guests have one link to share.
Do we need a Stripe account?
Only to receive money from paid or donation tickets. Free events and free registration don't need one.
Is Eventfold established?
No. Eventfold launched in October 2026, so it has a smaller audience of ticket buyers than the big marketplaces. It is built for organizers who already have their own community.
