## What we checked on EventCreate

### What the fees come to

**The fee per ticket** · Yes — EventCreate charges a percentage of each paid ticket with no fixed component and no cap, and the rate falls by plan from 5% on Free to 0% on Enterprise.

> Ticketing Fee Fee charged per paid ticket sold. Payment processing fees are separate.
> — https://www.eventcreate.com/pricing · Compare Plan Features table, Ticketing Fee row, checked 27 October 2026

**Who pays the fees** · Partly — You choose who covers the Stripe processing fee, with attendee-pays set as the default; the vendor's pages never say who carries the EventCreate ticketing percentage.

> EventCreate's default settings are Attendee Pays fees. You can change this under Setup > Registration > Payment tab > scroll down to the Fees section.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/6015376-who-pays-credit-card-fees · How to Change the Setting, checked 27 October 2026

**Card processing** · Yes — Stripe processes every card payment at 2.9% plus $0.30 per transaction in the US, charged on top of and separately from EventCreate's own ticketing percentage.

> Stripe, our integrated payment processor, charges credit card processing fees of 2.9% + $0.30 USD per transaction.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/5942091-does-eventcreate-charge-ticket-fees-or-processing-fees · Opening paragraph, checked 27 October 2026

**All-in price at checkout** · Yes — Since the FTC ticket-transparency rule, every applicable fee is printed beside the ticket price rather than appearing only at checkout as it did before.

> Any ticket sold through EventCreate will now show all applicable fees next to the ticket price, making the checkout process clearer and fully transparent.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/12093183-why-ticket-fees-are-now-visible · Key Takeaway, checked 27 October 2026

**Free events** · Yes — The ticketing percentage is defined as a charge per paid ticket sold, so RSVPs and free tickets carry no EventCreate fee, and Stripe is only involved on paid orders.

> Ticketing Fee Fee charged per paid ticket sold. Payment processing fees are separate.
> — https://www.eventcreate.com/pricing · Compare Plan Features table, Ticketing Fee row header note, checked 27 October 2026

**Fees on refunds** · No — Refunding a buyer returns the ticket price but not the fees: Stripe keeps its processing fee and the EventCreate fee is also not returned, so the organizer absorbs both.

> Processing fees are non-refundable and the host absorbs the processing fee (since Stripe does not return fees on refunded payments). This means if you refund a payment, the credit card processing and EventCreate fee collected on the original transaction will not be returned.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/12162892-how-refunds-work-with-stripe-and-eventcreate-fees · Key Points About Refunds, checked 27 October 2026

**Donations and tips** · Yes — Buyers can donate during registration or through a standalone donation form, in a fixed or self-chosen amount; nothing on the site describes a checkout tip to EventCreate itself.

> If you are raising funds for your event or for your organization, you may also accept donations. Donations can a fixed amount or flexible amout, meaning attendees may specify their own donation preference.
> — https://www.eventcreate.com/features · Full Features Index, Payments section, 'Accept Donations', checked 27 October 2026

**Sales tax on tickets** · Partly — adds a tax line: the platform never calculates or remits sales tax or VAT for you, but you can itemize a tax or extra fee yourself, or build it into the ticket price.

> EventCreate does not automatically charge ticket tax, VAT, or sales tax. Instead, we recommend that you include any applicable taxes directly in your ticket price.

**Reserved seating** · Partly — There is a drag-and-drop seating chart, but the vendor describes the organizer assigning attendees to seats rather than buyers choosing their own seat during checkout.

> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/6023082-can-i-include-a-waiver-in-my-event-registration · Body paragraph, checked 27 October 2026

**Timed entry** · Partly — Timed slots are built by hand: multi-event registration lets buyers pick a date and time from tickets you create per slot, and capacity is set per ticket, with no purpose-built timed-entry tool.

> To set up one website for all events, use Multi-Event registration so your attendees can choose the date/time they want to attend. Create a ticket for each event for which they can sign up.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/6115826-can-i-set-up-weekly-or-other-recurring-events · Option 1, checked 27 October 2026

**Waitlist** · Partly — No waitlist opens automatically when an event sells out; the vendor's documented route is a secondary form or confirmation-message notice that you then manage yourself.

**Sell on your own website** · Yes — An embedded form drops the registration and checkout flow straight into your own page with configurable size and button text, so buyers never leave your site.

> The Embedded Form feature lets you place your EventCreate registration form directly on your website or web page. Instead of sending attendees to a separate event page, they can register without leaving your site
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/12696964-embedded-form · What is the Embedded Form Feature?, checked 27 October 2026

**Website builders** · Partly — embed only: the registration form is pasted in as HTML embed code and the vendor claims it works on most platforms that accept embeds, naming no WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or Shopify plugin.

**Add-ons** · Yes — Add-ons such as merchandise, meals, raffle or drink tickets are offered to buyers during checkout, with the number of add-ons capped by plan.

> Sell add-ons to generate extra event income. Add-ons can be a great way to sell t-shirts, raffles, drink tickets or just about anything. If setup, your attendees will be promoted to purchase these items during registration/checkout.
> — https://www.eventcreate.com/features · Full Features Index, Payments section, 'Sell Add-ons', checked 27 October 2026

**Recurring events** · Partly — There is no native recurring-event series: you either sell one ticket per date through multi-event registration or duplicate the event site for each occurrence.

> Creating a calendar requires separate websites for each iteration of the event.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/6115826-can-i-set-up-weekly-or-other-recurring-events · Option 3, checked 27 October 2026

### At the door

**Check-in app** · Partly — The iOS check-in app scans QR-coded PDF tickets free of charge, but the vendor labels offline check-in as coming soon rather than available today.

> Coming soon: offline event check-in
> — https://www.eventcreate.com/features/event-check-in-app · Powerful features section heading, checked 27 October 2026

**Door sales** · Yes — Offline payment accepts cash, check, invoice or pay-at-the-door orders, and the vendor notes you must chase that payment yourself; no card terminal of its own is described.

> Common examples include: Payment by Cash, Payment by Check, Payment by Invoice, Pay at the Door, or payments via Zelle, Venmo, or PayPal.
> — https://support.eventcreate.com/en/articles/5951840-how-to-accept-cash-checks-and-app-payments-on-eventcreate · Opening paragraph, checked 27 October 2026

**Contract** · Yes — Every plan card says cancel anytime and nothing claims exclusivity; canceling mid-term keeps premium access to the end of the term, and the vendor gives no refunds.
