New Event Ticket Payment Option
Selling event tickets online can be complex, as well as costly, for the organizers. The team at Event Bee decided to
change the business model and recently announced a new payment structure that should appeal to event planners, especially charity event organizers.
Event Bee now charges a $1 flat fee per ticket sold using their system rather than the industry standard of taking a percentage of the ticket cost. Great news charity gala organizers whose ticket transactions are often above $250. As far as the actual user experience, you place a "purchase ticket" link that then sends guests over to a micro site hosted by Event Bee. The purchase transaction will take place on this customized micro site and you will instantly receive payment to your PayPal or Google account.
You can also create an application within your Facebook event's pages and attendees can purchase the tickets without leaving the Facebook experience. Another important feature to point out is that Event Bee provides the event host with real time attendee lists, registration reports and name tag lists in Microsoft Excel and PDF files.
Good luck to Bala and his Sunnyvale based team.
