More than tickets

The platform is a custom sales and operations layer for your event season. Ticketing is the front door; reporting, reminders, store items, and check-in are what make the night run smoothly.

Reserved and general admission

Draw your real auditorium, gym, sanctuary, field, or theatre. Support exact seats, accessible seating, capacity-limited general admission, comps, and multi-night runs.

Wallet tickets and door scanning

Send scannable tickets by email and text, with Apple Wallet and Google Wallet support so the entrance line moves without paper chaos.

Merch, concessions, and add-ons

Sell shirts, flowers, programs, concessions, VIP extras, parking, and other event items in the same checkout as seats.

Donations and patron shoutouts

Let families and sponsors add a donation, buy a program ad, or submit a patron message that can appear online and in print.

Automatic communication

Order confirmations, text reminders, email reminders, last-minute notices, and support links can all be part of the event flow.

Reports for real people

See sales by event, seats remaining, check-ins, store items, donations, program ads, exports, and payout-friendly summaries.

See the pieces

Example screens from a WonderNook ticketing build: a custom seat map, wallet-ready tickets, and fundraising add-ons that belong beside the sale instead of in a separate spreadsheet.

Built and live. We designed and launched the ticketing site for Boyertown Music, the platform these examples are based on. Visit the live site or set one up for your organization.

Platform shape

One site for the whole event lifecycle.

Instead of stacking together a marketplace, a form builder, a spreadsheet, a separate donation link, and a few frantic emails, your organization gets a purpose-built system around the way you run events.

Before sales

Event setup, ticket types, seat maps, store items, program ads, donation prompts, branding, and domain setup.

During sales

Public event pages, checkout, payment routing, confirmations, wallet tickets, reminders, exports, and sellout visibility.

Event night

QR scanning, check-in counts, support lookup, phone-friendly tickets, door lists, and quick answers for volunteers.

Afterwards

Reports, payout summaries, patron records, donation totals, store exports, sponsor messages, and the next event ready to clone.

Built for organizations like yours

Custom ticketing makes the most sense when events are a recurring part of your community, not a once-a-decade experiment.

Schools and departments

Concerts, musicals, games, fundraisers, PTO nights, and district events with simple reporting for staff and volunteers.

Community theatres

Reserved seating, multi-show runs, season-style calendars, program ads, merch, and a box office experience that feels professional.

Churches and nonprofits

Services, concerts, banquets, retreats, fundraisers, free events, paid events, donations, and gentle reminders in one place.

Honest fit

A year-round home, not a one-off tool.

We build a custom site and stand behind it, which is powerful for some groups and too much for others.

A great fit if you

  • Run events throughout the year
  • Want a branded sales experience under your own name
  • Sell merch, concessions, donations, or program ads
  • Need seat maps, reporting, and volunteer-friendly check-in
  • Value a long-term technical partner

Maybe not yet if you

You run a single ticketed event once a year and nothing else. A no-commitment marketplace may be simpler to start with. When your calendar grows, we can build the real thing.

Simple pricing, three clear parts

A flat fee on tickets, never a percentage of your ticket sales, and no surprise charges. You choose whether buyers cover the fee at checkout or your organization absorbs it.

Setup
from $500 one-time

We build your custom seat map, branding, domain, and email, then launch the whole site for you.

Billed annually
Hosting & Support
$29 / month, billed annually

One yearly invoice at the same low monthly rate, sized for school and church budgets. Covers secure hosting, your database, backups, updates, and support.

Transaction Fees
Tickets$1 each
Merch & program ads2%
DonationsFree

A flat dollar per paid ticket, never a percentage of ticket sales. Free admission events have no ticket fee.

How it adds up. A family buys 4 tickets to a $15 show. At checkout they add a small $4 service fee, and your organization receives the full $60. Standard card processing (about 2.9% plus 30 cents) is handled by Stripe and comes straight from your payouts, so it is never our fee. Prefer to absorb the fee so buyers see a round price? You can do that too.

Running a whole district, a festival, or a heavy season? Ask about custom and annual pricing and we will put together a plan that fits your numbers.

Ticketing FAQs

Q

What does it cost to start?

Billed once a year at $29 a month, it covers secure hosting, your own database, backups, and ongoing support, so your site stays online and cared for between events, even in your off season.
