Overview

Chobble Tickets is open source event ticketing software charged as flat-rate hosting rather than per ticket. It handles fixed-date, repeating and multi-day listings, deposits and balance payments, promo codes, check-in, refunds and CSV reports, plus a public booking site that can be embedded elsewhere. Ticket income goes to the organiser's own Stripe, Square or SumUp account.

Best for: Event organisers who sell enough tickets that per-ticket platform fees outweigh a flat annual fee
Pricing: Managed hosting is £50 a year or £5 a month (£25 a year for charities, community groups, artists and musicians), and self-hosting carries no Chobble licence fee.
Runs on: Self-hosted
