Event Registration Software for Nonprofits
Register guests, take donations and run the auction from one event platform
A nonprofit event has more to register than a guest: a ticket tier, a table, sometimes a gift. Eventdex's nonprofit pages describe registration pages tailored to ticket tiers, donor types or VIP levels, with e-tickets and RSVPs, and donations that can be collected during online registration, either one-time or recurring.
The same pages describe live and silent auctions, a live donation display and real-time donation tracking for fundraising events. Eventdex is built around events: its pages do not describe dues billing or a full member database, so keep those in your membership system and use Eventdex for the event itself.

Early bird pricing can be set by membership type, and the page describes tracking and reporting member credits earned from events attended.
Fundraising numbers while the event runs
The fundraising page describes real-time tracking of donations, ticket sales, attendance and auction results, and a live donation display.
Sponsors tracked beside donors
The fundraising page says sponsor commitments can be tracked, benefits assigned and exposure reported, alongside the donor and ticket data.
Your name on the pages
The fundraising page says registration pages, emails and donation portals can carry your organization's branding.
What the pages do not say

FAQ
Event Registration Software for Nonprofits: common questions
What should event registration software for a nonprofit do?
Beyond signing guests up, nonprofits usually need ticket tiers or donor levels, a way to take gifts, payment and refunds, check-in, and a view of money raised. Eventdex's nonprofit page describes tiered registration, online donations, auctions and donation tracking. The pages give no prices, so ask for a quote.
Can guests donate when they register?
Yes. The nonprofit page says donations can be collected during the online event registration process, and that one-time or recurring online donations are accepted. The zero-commission ticketing page also lists donation tickets. The pages do not describe tax receipts, so ask in a demo how your organization issues them.
Does it support silent and live auctions?
Yes. The fundraising page describes live and silent auctions with item cataloging, real-time bid updates and automated notifications, with both on-site and online bidding. Totals can be shown on a live donation display, and analytics cover ticket sales and auction results.
Does Eventdex manage memberships and dues?
Not as described. The nonprofit page covers membership-based event pricing, membership campaigns and member credits for events attended, and says it does not describe dues billing or a full member database. Its CRM and Salesforce integration pages say more about connecting to the system where your member records live.
Does Eventdex take a commission on tickets?
Eventdex describes a 0% commission ticketing platform with no commission on ticket sales. The pages do not say whether gateway processing fees apply, so check the rates of the payment gateway you connect, and ask in a demo.
Is it only for large galas?
No. The fundraising page says the software works for small charity drives, large galas and multi-event campaigns, and for in-person, virtual and hybrid fundraisers. The zero-commission page says nonprofits, schools and individuals can use it.
