£200 Eventbrite vouchers available from Technology Trust
Howard Lake | 17 April 2015 | News
Technology Trust is offering charities £200 credit vouchers to use to organise events using online ticketing platform Eventbrite.
Eligible UK charities can now purchase a £200 credit voucher for a single admin fee of £20. The voucher can be used for the fees incurred in selling tickets as an event organiser on Eventbrite.
The vouchers are part of the charity’s tt-exchange programme in which it offers charities access to selected commercial digital, software and hardware services and products at a fraction of the usual cost. So far the programme has saved charities over £130 million.
Eligible organisations can claim one £200 voucher, and it is only applicable to new Eventbrite organiser accounts. If your charity already uses Eventbrite, it can’t claim a voucher.
Since 2006, Eventbrite has offered tools that enable event organisers to manage, promote and sell tickets for their events. It has handled over £2 billion in gross ticket sales. Charities can use the service to claim Gift Aid on ticket sales and donations.
UK Fundraising has been using Eventbrite since 2009 to manage all its public training courses and conferences, including Fundraising Camp.
Marino Fresch, Head of Marketing at Eventbrite, said:
“At Eventbrite, we’ve seen that events are a great way to raise money and awareness for a cause. By teaming up with Technology Trust, we can help even more charities and not-for-profits to use technology to make events easier to run and more impactful”.
Existing charity discount
Eventbrite offers charity clients a reduced service fee of 2.0% + £0.65 per ticket. So, even if you are an existing charity client of the company and you don’t qualify for the voucher you can still reduce your costs.
