The short version

  • Only Guest Manager has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Eventix eventix.io now serves only the notice that Eventix is now Weeztix; the Eventix pricing page carries no fees, plans or terms; Guest Manager usage is metered in credits consumed by check ins, emails and badges, so cost scales with activity rather than with the subscription alone
  • They diverge on capability: Eventix covers Custom ticket shops, Guest Manager covers Registration.
