Small-business events, without the event-platform fees
Events are one of the best ways for a small business to meet customers, but most of the value walks out the door with them. A guest book collects a few illegible emails. A ticketing platform takes a fee on every sale and keeps the relationship.
Pass the Pad keeps it yours. Every guest who signs in becomes a contact with their visit history, every opt-in goes to your mailing list, and paid tickets and memberships pay into your own Stripe or PayPal account.
Start with Sign-in at $12 a month. When you're ready for tickets, memberships or a store, the Club plan brings them in from $45 a month in total.
Frequently asked questions
Is Pass the Pad only for clubs?
No. Studios, shops, breweries, coworking spaces and meetup organizers use it to check in guests, build their mailing list and sell event tickets.
Are there per-ticket or per-transaction fees?
Not from us. The price is flat per month. Stripe or PayPal charge their usual processing fee on paid orders.
Can I use my own Mailchimp account?
Yes. Connect Mailchimp and opt-ins are added to your audience with tags for the event, or send email straight from Pass the Pad.
Can I run memberships or subscriptions?
Yes, with the Club plan: levels, monthly or yearly renewals, a member portal and member prices on tickets.
