As a Constant Contact customer, I only pay my payment processor when I receive event registrations. Not a good marketing strategy in my opinion. I’d rather eat that fee instead of making my class participants pay it. The other option Eventbrite had was that you could have the registrant pay the fees, which I simply refused to do. 99 per registrant plus a service fee, and a payment processing fee every time someone registered. In fact, I left Eventbrite at the time I discovered Constant Contact’s event tools because I was paying Eventbrite. I mean, after all, Constant Contact has its own built-in event marketing and registration tools that I have been using for about seven years, and I love them!


Constant Contact announced their Eventbrite integration over a year ago, but I couldn’t figure out why Constant Contact added them as an integration partner or even why I would want to use Eventbrite as I’ve never really been a fan. Here’s something I put off doing for a very long time.
