COMPARISONS
AIM FORM vs Eventbrite
Eventbrite is the big ticketing platform: free events are published at no cost and, for paid ones, it charges a fee on every ticket sold. If you sell tickets or want new audiences to find you in its event search, that's its turf. To register your own people —members, families, students— AIM FORM gives you what matters at the door: a capacity that closes by itself, a waiting list that moves up on its own and a QR ticket read with a phone, inside your own form with the questions you want.
The differences that matter
Your form, not just an event page
Any kind of question, logic, places per workshop or slot and calculations, in the same place people sign up. And in the same tool, votes and surveys.
Capacity, waiting list and QR, without selling tickets
The capacity closes by itself, the waiting list moves the next person who fits up and emails them, and the QR ticket is checked in with the organiser's phone camera.
Where Eventbrite wins: selling and being found
AIM FORM doesn't charge for tickets and has no event marketplace. On its US pricing page, Eventbrite charges 3.7% + $1.79 per ticket plus 2.9% payment processing per order on paid events; nothing on free ones.
