TicketLeap is no-nonsense ticketing for festivals, haunted attractions, schools and churches, with every feature included and fees that buyers pay by default. Timed entry, seating charts, a box office app and even a weather guarantee are in. You only get your money after the event, though, and it sells only in US, Canadian and Australian dollars. - **Value for money: B.** Buyers pay by default, so you keep the full ticket price. The fee is $1 + 2% a ticket plus a 3% online transaction fee: $400 on 200 $20 tickets. No separate card fee is listed, so that's the whole bill, where most rivals add card processing on top. Absorb it and it's yours. - **Free plan and trial: A.** Every feature, no subscription and no contract, and free events cost nothing even if you never sell a paid ticket. - **Features: C.** Timed entry, seating charts, pay-what-you-want tickets, waivers, a scanner and box office app, ticket exchanges and a weather guarantee. The gap is getting paid: money arrives 4 to 7 business days after the event, never before it. - **Ease of use: C.** No App Store rating on record. There's no payment processor to connect, as money runs through TicketLeap's own Stripe setup, but you still build event pages, ticket types and seating charts. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Google Analytics, Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, Apple Pay and Google Pay. No API on record and no desktop app, and tickets sell only in US, Canadian and Australian dollars. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. - You could make: Reports and qR codes: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. - You could not: Selling tickets and checking them at the door. - You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Stripe, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager among them.
