Frequently asked questions
Is WebMobi really cheaper than Eventbrite?
+
For paid B2B tickets: yes, dramatically. WebMobi charges 0% transaction fees on a flat $199/event Pro tier. Eventbrite Flex charges 2.5% + $0.79/ticket — on a $500 ticket that's ~$13 per registration. Break-even is ~16 paid tickets.
Will I lose Eventbrite's discovery traffic if I switch?
+
WebMobi pushes every published event into its 130K-event B2B-leaning discovery directory. For consumer events Eventbrite still wins on raw directory volume; for B2B / professional / conference events, WebMobi's curated audience converts better.
Can I import my Eventbrite attendee list?
+
Yes — CSV export from Eventbrite Reports goes straight into WebMobi via the import wizard. Past-event email lists carry over for re-marketing your next event.
Does WebMobi process payments globally?
+
Yes — Stripe + Razorpay (India) covering 130+ countries. Eventbrite's payment processor is locked to their platform; WebMobi lets you bring your own Stripe account.
What about Eventbrite Music or Eventbrite Boost?
+
WebMobi doesn't replicate Eventbrite's consumer-music vertical or its paid promotion tool. If those are your core use case, stay with Eventbrite. If you're running B2B conferences, WebMobi is the better fit.
