Ticket types and promo codes
General, VIP or early bird, each with its own price, stock and sale dates. Promo codes take money off tickets.
Extras, tables and sponsors

A ticket for every person
Each person gets their own QR code and door code, with a PDF in the buyer's email.
A free door scanner
Scan from any phone's browser. Several phones can work the door, and a ticket checks in only once.
Approve buyers first
For a private dinner, guests ask to buy and an approved guest gets a private link. Hide the address until they're in.
Your invitation is the shop
Tickets sell from your own designed event page, so there's no other listing and no other events beside yours.

Our arithmetic from each platform's published rates for a one-ticket order, with Stripe's standard US 2.9% + 30¢ where a platform bills card processing separately. It leaves out tax, currency conversion, monthly plan costs and any custom pricing, and passing a fee to the buyer changes the base slightly. Partiful doesn't publish a rate, so it isn't here.

Questions
How much does it cost to sell tickets?
Nothing to set up and no monthly fee, on any plan. Each paid ticket, extra, table or sponsorship costs 6% + 50¢, the platform and card processing fee, and card processing is included. You choose whether the buyer pays it or you cover it. On a $25 ticket the fee is $2: the buyer pays $27, or pays $25 and you receive $23. Free tickets cost nothing.
Is this cheaper than Eventbrite or Luma?
It depends on the price and your plan. Going by each platform's published rates, the table on this page works out the fee at four ticket prices. RSVPlinks is in the middle: several tools cost less, especially Luma Plus if you sell enough to justify its monthly price, and Zeffy for nonprofits. Choose RSVPlinks when you want the invitation, tickets, door scanner and seating in one place with no subscription.
When do I get the money?
Card payments are paid out to your bank every Monday once your balance reaches $25; a smaller balance goes out after 30 days with no new payment. In a month where the fees on your card payments don't cover Stripe's payout costs, the difference (about $3.50 at most) comes out of the payout. "Pay out now" sends your balance any time for $1, from $5. Money from your first ticketed event pays out 3 days after the event. Ticket and RSVP Fee money from a new seller pays out 3 days after the event, until they have sold $250 across 5 payments on finished events.
What do I need to start?
A free RSVPlinks account and a Stripe account, which takes a few minutes and holds your identity and bank details. RSVPlinks doesn't see them. Free tickets need no Stripe account. An event with replies can't switch to Tickets, so choose it before you share the link.
Can I refund buyers or cancel the event?
RSVPlinks' platform and card processing fee is never refunded. If the guest paid the fee, a refund gives them everything but the fee. If you covered the fee, they get back all they paid and the fee comes out of your balance. A refund goes through only when your balance covers it. You choose a refund policy that buyers see before paying. If the event is cancelled, Refund all closes sales and refunds orders oldest first, as far as your balance covers, and emails each buyer.
Can I sell a table, a meal or a sponsorship?
Yes. Extras such as a meal, a shirt or parking are bought with a ticket and have their own stock. A whole table or a sponsorship package can cost up to $5000. Each seat gets its own ticket, and a sponsor shows on your page once you approve them.
Does RSVPlinks promote my event to buyers?
No. RSVPlinks has no public marketplace, so buyers come from the link you share. If you need a platform to bring you an audience, a marketplace such as Eventbrite fits better.
What can't it do?
Buyers can't pick a seat on a map, charges are in US dollars, and one ticket can cost up to $1000. Very large events usually need a platform with box office tools and staff support.
