A SignUpGenius alternative built for real registration
Tickets, add-ons, and QR check-in on modern, ad-free pages - with a low 1% + $0.50 platform fee (plus standard card processing) versus their all-in 3.95% + $0.95 per transaction.
SignUpGenius is handy for quick volunteer and potluck sign-ups, but it was built for scheduling slots, not paid registration. Its published card fee is 3.95% + $0.95 per transaction (which includes payment processing), on top of ad-supported pages and paid monthly tiers. Regify is purpose-built for event registration and ticketing, with clean pages, a lower platform fee, and check-in included.

Regify's fee is 1% + $0.50 per registrant plus standard payment processing (Stripe, currently 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction). Free events have no fees and you keep 100% of the ticket face value. Fees are not returned on refunds (standard for card payments) - a refund returns the ticket price, not the fees. Competitor figures are their published rates; some include payment processing and some add it separately - check each provider's current pricing.
