Introduction and Overview
Eventrise is an event management platform built for organizers who bring communities together, whether through conferences, workshops, festivals, or gatherings of all shapes and sizes. Designed with the belief that behind every event is a human who deserves tools that make their work easier, more transparent, and more rewarding, Eventrise stands apart from traditional platforms. Unlike others that burden organizers with high fees and delayed payouts, Eventrise offers a streamlined solution that gives organizers everything they need.
With a fee of just 2.5 percent compared to the industry standard of 5 to 10 percent or more, Eventrise ensures that more of the event budget stays with organizers. This allows them to invest in speakers, venues, and experiences that make their events unforgettable. Fast payouts in days—not weeks—mean organizers can manage cash flow with confidence and avoid the financial stress that often comes with waiting for revenue to arrive. When support is needed, Eventrise connects organizers with real humans who have firsthand experience running events and understand the challenges that come with logistics, ticketing, and attendee management.
The platform was built by organizers with over 15 years of experience running Creative South, a design conference in Columbus, Georgia. After years of using every major platform and feeling the pain of high fees, slow payouts, and detached customer service, they decided to create the platform they wished had existed.
Bootstrapped, values-driven, and committed to prioritizing organizer success over short-term profits, Eventrise reflects a philosophy of empowerment and transparency. Its features are designed to cover the full lifecycle of event management, from creating event pages with ease to selling tickets online, checking in attendees quickly, tracking funds, and ensuring organizers always know where their money is.
