View comparisonLooking for a GuestlistOnline alternative?
GuestlistOnline is about RSVP and fast door control, not ticket sales. For a paid event the bill mounts quickly — here is the comparison.
Why organizers look for alternatives
Points to weigh when considering a GuestlistOnline alternative:
The €0.25 + 5% transaction fee is not on the pricing page
The binding terms quote dollars where the marketing quotes euros
The 5% component rises steeply on pricier tickets
Resale is contractually forbidden and refunds are entirely the organizer's problem
Publishes no WCAG AA accessibility statement
No legal entity, company number or business address published
Facts about GuestlistOnline
- International freemium RSVP and guest-list platform for nightclubs, promoters, weddings and private events.
- Payments run through your own Stripe Connect account; no payout term is published anywhere.
- The €0.25 + 5% per-ticket transaction fee is not on the pricing page, appearing only in the terms, a blog article and one product page.
- The pricing page meanwhile advertises "no hidden fees".
- The binding terms state the amount in dollars ($0.25 + 5%), while all marketing quotes euros.
- On a €50 ticket their fee comes to €2.75, against €0.50 for a flat per-ticket fee.
- Resale is contractually forbidden and refunds are entirely the organizer's responsibility.
- No legal entity, company number, VAT number or business address is published — only "Amsterdam, Netherlands".

What you gain with MijnEvent

Sell gift cards
Sell gift cards redeemable in your ticket shop.
Waitlist when sold out

Time slots (timed entry)

But there is more
GuestlistOnline sells tickets. MijnEvent runs your entire organisation.
GuestlistOnline sells tickets. MijnEvent sells tickets and rents out your boats, halls and equipment, seats your visitors on a floor plan, sells your merchandise, takes orders at the bar and the food trucks, manages your memberships and season passes, handles your parking and camping pitches, enrols your course participants, collects your donations, gathers anonymous feedback afterwards and builds your entire website if you want one — all on the same account, with the same Mollie connection, for a flat fee per transaction.
What GuestlistOnline does
International freemium RSVP and guest-list platform for nightclubs, promoters, weddings and private events.

GuestlistOnline has this too
You switch every module on or off yourself. Click through for what it does and what it costs. Dimmed = GuestlistOnline offers this as well.
- One account Everything under the same subdomain and the same back office. No second vendor, no second login, no export files dragged back and forth.
- One Mollie connection You connect Mollie once. Every module settles through it, straight into your own account — tickets, rentals, merchandise and the rest.
- A flat fee per transaction Flat amounts per paid transaction, never a percentage of your revenue. Free tickets, free bookings and donations are fee-free.
Privacy by design — only what is needed
MijnEvent only asks visitors for what a ticket really requires: name and email address — city is optional. No phone number, date of birth or full address: tickets do not need them, and elsewhere they are mostly collected for marketing. Less data means less risk for you and your visitors (GDPR).
- Name + email address
- City optional
- No phone number
- No date of birth
- No full address
Switching is easy
Your first event online within 15 minutes. No technical knowledge needed, no long contracts.
Create account
Sign up for free and choose your subdomain.
Connect Mollie
Connect your Mollie account for direct payouts.
Create event
Create your first event and start selling.
What carries over from GuestlistOnline?
An honest overview of what you take with you, what you set up again, and what stays behind at GuestlistOnline.
This comes with you
- Your visitor list — the addresses are yours. With a valid opt-in you load them into your own newsletter service and connect that to the checkout.
- Your Mollie account. You connect it again and payouts keep landing straight in your own account.
- Your branding: logo, colours and your own subdomain, so visitors see your name and not the platform's.
- Your own website and existing links — point the "Tickets" button at your subdomain or place the ticket widget on your own page.
This you set up again
- Your events, ticket types and prices are created again in your dashboard.
- Your service fees are set again per ticket type.
- Your stewards receive an invitation and set their own PIN for the scanning app.
- Modules you use — rentals, parking, memberships — are switched on one by one.
What does not come with you: tickets already sold through GuestlistOnline. Those stay valid there and their QR codes are not recognised by us — we do not import orders from another system. Most organisers therefore switch between two events, or let a running event finish at their current provider while the next one is already set up at MijnEvent.

View comparisonWhen is GuestlistOnline the better choice?
Choose GuestlistOnline if your work is mainly guest-list management rather than ticket sales: a nightclub, promoter collective, wedding or private venue where most names are invitations rather than sales. Their free plan and the €19.99 one-off event plan are then cheaper than any subscription, their offline check-in genuinely works without signal, and their per-promoter commission tracking is something most Dutch ticketing platforms simply do not have.
