“My event lives on someone else's page.”
Your own site, on your own domain. Buyers stay with your brand from the poster to the ticket.
Features
Other platforms sell your tickets. Packdoor runs what happens around them: your site, your door, your promotion, your books and your bookings.
The hard part of running events was never the ticket link. Here is what organizers tell themselves at 2 a.m., and what changes.
Pick the job that costs you the most time. Each one shows the problem, what Packdoor does and the edge you get.
Every plan
The problem
A listing on a marketplace builds the marketplace's brand. Every event starts from zero, next to your competitors.
Your edge Every post, ad and search result builds an address you own.
Every plan
The problem
Canadian crowds want one honest price and more ways to pay than a card. Most tools leave tax and e-Transfer to you.
Your edge No Packdoor fee on e-Transfer or cash, and card processing is inside the fee.
Every plan
The problem
The line is out the door, the signal is gone and someone says they were on the list.
Your edge A dead signal doesn't stop your door. Your line keeps moving.
From Grow
The problem
Ad budgets disappear, and you only learn what worked after the night is over.
Your edge You see a slow date while there is still time to fix it, and your buyer list stays yours.
Reports on every plan, profit on Pro
The problem
Revenue is not profit. The real number is scattered across bank statements, receipts and group chats.
Your edge You know what a night really made before the next deposit is due.
Every plan
The problem
Before anyone buys a ticket, you need a room, a DJ, sound and security. That usually means weeks of messages.
Your edge Planning and selling happen in the same place, so your date goes on sale sooner.
Every plan, agents on Pro
The problem
You run the event, the marketing and the admin. Nobody has time to learn another dashboard.
Your edge Your own AI assistant works with your real events, not a generic chat.
How is Saturday pacing?
312 of 350 sold, ahead of your usual pace. VIP is nearly gone. Want a last-call email drafted?
Eventbrite, Ticket Tailor and Posh each do ticketing well. None of them lists these on the pages we read.
Sales, costs, advances and ad spend on one line, for each night.
After each event, see who owes whom and how much.
Each date's pace against the usual curve, while you can still act.
Held tickets, reminders, automatic cancelling and no Packdoor fee.
Find a room, pay the deposit and book the DJ where you sell the tickets.
Connect Claude or another MCP client to run your account.
A serious organizer usually pays for a pile of tools, then spends the weekend moving data between them.
One site, one sign-in, one list of buyers and one set of numbers. Start costs $0 a month.
The things that decide your margin and your workload, not only the ticket fee.

From each company's own pricing, features and platform pages, read on October 31, 2026. “Not listed” means we did not find it there, not that it can never exist. Check their pages before you decide.
Where they lead: Eventbrite's marketplace brings new buyers. Ticket Tailor has seat maps and low prepaid rates. Posh has its discovery app and free text blasts.
