Inviton

Inviton is an event-management platform for registration, ticketing and venue check-in. It fits conference, festival, trade-show and training organizers that need several sales channels and QR entry control. Its strongest case is a configurable, operationally broad event setup; ticket fees and the limits of free-ticket support deserve close budget attention.

Overview

Inviton lets organizers sell through its own service, an iframe on their website, an API or plugin, and onsite sales tools. Dynamic forms can change by ticket type, which is useful when different attendee groups need different questions or access. QR tickets are scanned with the Inviton Promoter app on iOS and Android, with online or offline checking across multiple zones. That offline, multi-zone capability is particularly practical for large or connectivity-sensitive venues.

The platform also extends beyond core ticketing. Branded Android and iOS event apps can present programmes, networking, push notifications and venue maps. Inviton says it can lend QR scanners, badge and card printers, POS terminals and RFID equipment for cashless payments and attendee tracking. These options can reduce the number of suppliers an organizer must coordinate, but they also make a tailored commercial discussion important.

Key features

Registration, ticket sales and discounts

Separate registration forms for each ticket type support differentiated data collection without forcing every attendee through the same workflow. Coupons can deduct a fixed amount or percentage, be single-use or reusable, and run indefinitely or for a defined period. Buyers can pay by card, Google Pay, PayPal or supported bank buttons. PayPal adds a 3.6% surcharge. Transactions are processed through the 24-pay gateway, and Inviton’s terms describe technical, administrative and physical safeguards for personal data, with processing kept inside the EU.

Onsite operations

QR check-in that continues offline and works across zones is a meaningful advantage for distributed entrances, workshops or access-controlled areas. Loan equipment and RFID support broaden the onsite setup, while class scheduling, learner registration, attendance tracking, certification tracking and automated reminders make the platform relevant to training providers as well as public events.

Support and free-ticket events

Free tickets can be enabled, but this mode comes without technical support. Paid plans include support and advanced features, so organizations running a no-cost event should be prepared to manage implementation themselves or pay for assistance.

Pricing

Transaction fee

The transaction-fee plan has custom pricing, with a minimum of €0.60 per sold ticket. It suits organizers who prefer a usage-linked model, but the minimum matters for low-priced tickets because it can represent a substantial share of each sale.

Standard fee

Standard fee is priced at €5, paid once and is billed at 5% of the ticket price per sold ticket, with a €0.60 minimum per ticket. The fee depends on event count, attendee capacity and ticket price; larger volumes may receive a lower rate. Event creation and use of the platform are free, but the per-ticket charge should be modeled against expected attendance and ticket value before selection.

Platforms

Inviton provides web access, Android and iOS apps, Windows support and an API. The mobile Promoter app handles QR scanning, while the API and plugin routes support integrations with an organizer’s own sales environment.

Who it's for

Choose Inviton for conferences, summits, music festivals, trade shows, workshops or training programs that need configurable registration, multiple ticket-selling routes and resilient venue check-in. It is also a candidate for teams wanting branded event-app features or rented onsite hardware. It is less suitable when every event is free and requires included technical assistance, or when a simple single-channel registration page is all that is needed.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Online, embedded, API/plugin and onsite sales cover varied event workflows.
• Pro: Offline, multi-zone QR check-in supports complex venues and unreliable connectivity.
• Pro: Ticket-specific forms, flexible coupons and training-oriented attendance features improve control.
• Con: A €0.60 minimum per sold ticket can weigh heavily on inexpensive tickets.
• Con: Free-ticket mode excludes technical support.
• Con: Branded apps and equipment lending add useful options but require individualized pricing discussion.
