3 Get paid directly – your money is yours.

Eventbrite typically holds your money until AFTER your event is finished. This can be a nightmare for cashflow. We’ll instantly transfer your payments into your Stripe account, and you’ll receive these in your bank account about 3 days later.

4 Your brand, not ours.

We’ll put your brand front and centre every step of the way, and maintain a professional and consistent brand presence, without plastering our brand over your event pages. Customers only see our brand where necessary. All this for no extra cost, like most other ticketing providers.

Event pages, email confirmations, tickets, payment pages all carry your brand.

5 Your data is yours, we don’t own any of it.

We don’t own your data or your customers’ data. It’s always yours. We don’t email customers for other events not run by you as Eventbrite does.

Our team genuinely cares about data privacy and GDPR and ensure that we’re fully compliant every step of the way.

9 We care about our planet, and take real action.

We’re totally carbon neutral (since we launched). Plus, we run a Trees for Tickets scheme. That means that every time you sell a ticket with MatterPay we contribute to growing trees around the world. You can see your direct contribution from our control panel.
