A ticketing platform that scales with your events

Weezevent is designed to grow with your needs; start with ticketing, then extend seamlessly to access control, cashless payments and CRM. All within the same ecosystem, without changing tools or workflows.

Transparent and predictable pricing.

When organising an event, ticketing costs should be easy to understand and easy to anticipate. Weezevent is built around a straightforward pricing approach, so you always know how fees are calculated, with no unexpected charges along the way.

Completely fair and predictable pricing

Weezevent applies a simple pricing model of 2.5% + £0.99 per ticket sold, taxes included. Fees are easy to understand, easy to plan budgets with and remain consistent regardless of your event size or ticket volume.

Low fees per tickets sold

There are no upfront costs. Fees apply only when tickets are sold, so your expenses evolve naturally with your sales rather than being fixed in advance.

No subscription or commitment

There is no monthly subscription or long-term contract. You can create, manage and close your events freely, without being tied to a plan.

No credit card processing fees

Credit card payments are processed directly within the platform, without additional processing fees from third-party providers. Fees may be applied if optional payment methods are enabled, such as PayPal or Klarna.

Free for free events

Weezevent is completely free to use for free events. You can manage registrations, issue tickets and control access without paying any platform fees. For paid events, you can easily forward the fees to ticket buyers, so the platform is also free for you.

Start now

Unlock your data’s potential.

Your audience, your data

Nearly 90% of ticket sales occur through organisers’ own channels, such as websites, emails and social media. All data generated through your ticket sales belongs to you. It is fully accessible, activable and exportable at any time.
No buyer tracking or data sharing

Attendee data is never used for advertising unless you explicitly request support for promotional campaigns; it is not shared with parent companies, affiliates or external partners. Your audience remains yours: no automatic tracking, retargeting or redistribution.
Turn data into repeat sales

Data ownership only matters if you can actually use it. Weezevent integrates CRM capabilities directly into your ticketing, meaning you can segment audiences, personalise communication and measure impact across events. Because ticketing and marketing data stay aligned, every campaign feeds into the next one, helping you build momentum instead of starting over each time.

Your event. In focus.

Your ticketing page should reflect your brand, not force it into a fixed template. Weezevent gives organisers full control over how their event is presented, from the first click to the final confirmation.

White-label ticketing

With Weezevent, your branding stays visible throughout the entire purchase journey. Ticket pages, checkout and confirmation screens all follow your visual identity, regardless of whether tickets are sold directly on your website or via a dedicated Weezevent mini-site.

Customisable mini-site and forms

Build a mini-site that fits your event or embed a ticketshop within your own website. Arrange content sections freely, add images, videos, social links, and detailed event information. Create custom forms to collect the exact data you need without unnecessary fields.

Your mini-site, built to rank

Each mini-site created with Weezevent is designed to support your online visibility. Pages are SEO-optimised by default, helping your event rank organically on search engines and attract traffic beyond your existing audience.

Sell tickets now

Built to maximise ticketing conversion.

Selling tickets online is about removing friction and reinforcing confidence at every step. Weezevent is designed to convert more visitors into ticket buyers by utilising your own channels.

Seamless checkout, flexible payments

Keep ticket buyers on your website, or on a fully branded mini-site, without redirecting them to an external marketplace. This, combined with multiple payment options that are adapted to your audience, reduces hesitation at checkout and leads to faster purchases.

Mobile-first flow with no account creation

On average, 80% of ticket purchases happen on mobile. Weezevent offers a fast, mobile-optimised purchase flow that lets attendees buy tickets without creating an account – removing an unnecessary step that often causes drop-off.

Customised purchase experience that increases confidence

Display complex pricing structures clearly, including tiers, bundles, memberships or discounts, so buyers understand what they are purchasing. For seated events, integrated 2D or 3D numbered seating plans give ticket buyers a sense of control, reduce uncertainty and increase perceived value.

One platform. Every stage of your event.

Your needs change as your event grows. Weezevent is built as a connected ecosystem, allowing you to scale operations without stacking tools or migrating to new providers as complexity increases.

Access control that adapts to your scale

From smaller gatherings to high-volume festivals, entry management grows with your needs. Ticket lists synchronise automatically, and on-site access can be managed via a simple app or with professional scanning equipment for faster, high-capacity operations.

Cashless built for smoother operations

As attendance rises, transaction speed becomes critical. Built-in cashless reduces queues, accelerates service and improves the on-site experience without adding operational layers or third-party systems.

Communication that supports growth

Before, during, and after the event, communication remains connected to your ticketing data. This supports targeted messaging, reduces no-shows and strengthens engagement across editions.

Team and accreditation management

As your organisation grows, coordinating staff, volunteers and accreditation becomes more demanding. Integrated workflows keep teams aligned and operations structured, even at scale.
