From the first ticket to the last attendee
Everyday events first: a page, tickets and check-in. Seat maps, agenda, sponsors and the links to your other apps are there when you need them.
A page for your event, tickets that sell themselves
Give the event a name, a date and a place or an online link, and it gets its own page with your colours, photos and a map. Add free and paid tickets with sales dates and limits, ask your own questions when people register, and approve each registration if you like. When it's full, people join a wait list and move up as places open.
- Free and paid tickets, early bird dates and limits per ticket
- Your own registration questions, per person or per order
- Approvals, a wait list and places held while people pay
- A list of all your events, calendar files and sharing buttons
Every ticket sale is already in your accounts
People pay on the event page through your own payment gateway, and the money goes straight to you - Ellibo takes no fee. Each paid order becomes an invoice and a payment in Accounting by itself, with the right tax. Refunds make a credit note, and can go back to the card at once. You can also take cash or send an invoice for orders you enter yourself.
- Your own payment gateway, no fee from us
- Invoice and payment made for every paid order
- Refunds with a credit note, back to the card
- Cash at the door and invoices for group bookings
A phone at the door is all you need
Every attendee gets a ticket email with a QR code and a PDF. At the door, your staff open Check-in on any phone and scan, or search by name. You see who has arrived and who hasn't, live. No signal? Scans are kept on the phone and sent when it's back. Print name badges for everyone, or one at a time as people arrive.
- Scan with the phone camera, or search by name
- A ticket can never be checked in twice
- Works offline, sends when the signal is back
- Badges as PDF: A6, four on A4 or label printers
People pick their own seats
Draw the room once: rows, blocks and aisles. Keep seats back for guests, tie each ticket type to its part of the room, and let people pick their seats on the event page. Seats are held while they pay and freed if they don't, so a seat is never sold twice.
- Rows, blocks and aisles, drawn in minutes
- Seats kept back for guests and staff
- Ticket types tied to parts of the room
- Held while paying, never sold twice
The whole programme, on every phone
Put talks in rooms and time slots, with speaker profiles and photos. Attendees save the talks they want and get a reminder before each one starts. Talks can have their own video links, slides and a short quiz. On Business, people send talk proposals on the event page and you review and accept them.
- Talks by time and room, with clash warnings
- Speaker profiles and photos
- Saved talks with reminders
- Talk proposals, reviewed by your team
Sponsors, booths and networking rooms
Show sponsors by level with their logos, give exhibitors their own page with a meeting link, and invoice each sponsorship from Events. Sell booths on the event page: exhibitors pick a booth, pay, and appear on the event page by themselves. On Business, attendees meet in topic rooms with a chat and a video link.
- Sponsor levels and logos on the event page
- Exhibitor pages with a meeting link
- Booths booked and paid online
- Sponsorship invoices in your books
The right message at the right time
A ticket email the moment people register, a reminder the day before, the online link an hour before, a thank-you after - set once and sent by themselves. Write to everyone or only to people who came, and send by SMS or WhatsApp through your own messaging account.
- Ticket email with a PDF straight away
- Reminders and thank-yous on a schedule
- Messages to everyone, or only those who came
- SMS and WhatsApp through your own account

Questions people ask
What is Ellibo Events?
It is event management software for running events from start to finish: an event page people register on, free and paid tickets, ticket emails with QR codes, check-in at the door with a phone, name badges, reminders, an agenda with speakers, sponsors and booths, and reserved seating. Workshops, meetups, conferences, classes, concerts, open days and staff training all fit.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free plan covers 2 live events at a time with up to 50 attendees each, for 2 users, with event pages, free tickets, QR tickets and check-in, for as long as you like. Every new business also gets a 14-day trial of every feature, with no card.
Do you take a cut of my ticket sales?
No. Ellibo never takes a fee on tickets. Paid tickets go through your own payment gateway, set up once in Integrations, and the money goes straight to you. Each paid order becomes an invoice and a payment in your books by itself.
How does check-in work?
Open Check-in on any phone and scan the QR code on each ticket, or search by name. You see who has arrived and how many are still to come. If the signal drops, scans are kept on the phone and sent when it is back. A ticket can never be checked in twice.
Can people pick their seats?
Yes, from Professional. Draw a seat map with rows, blocks and aisles, mark seats you are keeping back, and tie ticket types to parts of the room. People pick their seats on the event page, and a seat can never be sold twice.
Can I run online events?
Yes. Give the event an online link instead of a place - any video meeting or live stream - and attendees get it in their ticket email and on their ticket page. Talks in the agenda can have their own links and recordings too.
Does it work with my other Ellibo apps?
Yes. Paid orders go into Accounting by themselves. From Professional, attendees can become CRM leads, join an Email Marketing list or a Marketing Automation journey, get a survey after the event, and an event can have its own project, open shifts in Planning and its own costs from Expense. Staff training events from Standard show up in HR, where employees register themselves.
What does it cost, and what happens after the trial?
Standard is $7 a month for the business before tax, Professional is $15 and Business is $29. A year costs the same as 10 months. After the 14-day trial you move to the Free plan or the plan you choose. Nothing is deleted: your events, attendees and orders stay.
