Event registration

Registration before the event,
check-in at the door.

Put up a registration page for your event, sell or give away tickets, and check people in on the same tablet you use for sign-in. Payments go straight to your own Stripe or PayPal account.

What you get

Event registration and tickets with Pass the Pad

Free or paid tickets

Several ticket types per event, each with its own price, description and sales dates.

Member prices

Members see their own price automatically when they register, so you never hand out discount codes.

Capacity and waitlists

Set how many places each ticket has. When it's full, people join a waitlist and are let in when a place opens.

Check-in on the tablet

Each registration has a ticket code. Check people in at the door on the same tablet that signs in walk-ins.

Your money, your account

Payments go straight to your own Stripe or PayPal. We never take a percentage of ticket sales.

Confirmations sent for you

Registrants get their ticket by email, and you see every order, refund and check-in in one list.

How it works

Ready in three steps.

  1. Add tickets to an event

    Choose free or paid, set a member price, a capacity and the dates tickets are on sale.

  2. Share the registration page

    Link it from your website, newsletter or social posts. It works on any phone.

  3. Check in at the door

    Type or scan the ticket code on the tablet; walk-ins sign in on the same screen.

Event registration that fits a small organization

Big ticketing platforms are built for concerts. They add a fee to every ticket, push your guests toward their other events and keep the contact details on their side. For a monthly workshop, a members' dinner or a fundraising night, that is more than you need and costs more than it should.

With Pass the Pad, registration lives next to everything else you already run: your events, your members and your mailing list. Members get their price without codes, everyone who registers joins your contacts, and the same tablet handles registered guests and walk-ins on the night, so your headcount is complete.

Event registration and tickets come with Membership on the Club plan, together with member dues, join forms, a store and donations, for a flat monthly price set by how many active members you have.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Are there per-ticket fees?

Not from us. Pass the Pad is a flat monthly price. Stripe or PayPal charge their normal card processing fee on paid tickets, and that's all.

Can we run free events with registration?

Yes. Set the ticket price to 0 for an RSVP-style registration with a capacity and a waitlist.

Can members pay a different price?

Yes. Give a ticket type a member price and signed-in members see it automatically.

What happens when an event is full?

If you turn on the waitlist, people can join it. When you add places or someone cancels, the waitlist moves up and they're offered a place.

Which plan includes event registration?

Tickets and registration are part of Club, which has Sign-in and Membership together, from $45 a month for up to 300 active members, with a 30-day free trial.
