Ticketbud is an event management, ticketing and registration SaaS platform for event organizers.[2] The software allows event organizers to sell tickets to events and also to promote and market their events on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Founded in 2009 in Austin, Texas, Ticketbud's revenue is derived from a fee placed upon tickets sold through its software at $0.99 + 2% of the ticket's value per ticket. It places no fee upon events which cost nothing to enter, and due to its involvement with non-profits it offers a reduced rate for organizations under 501(c)(3) designation.[3]
