A booking feature Timerise builds into custom booking systems its clients own. One fixed project price, typically $15,000 to $50,000, with this feature part of it. Last updated: 2026-10-20.

Ticket platforms take a fee per ticket and keep your guest list. We build event booking into your system: paid and free sessions, seat limits, check-in at the door and the guest data in your hands.

What goes wrong without it:
- A fee on every ticket adds up over a season. The guest list stays on the ticket platform, and your brand sits under theirs.
- Workshops, masterclasses and tours need more than a ticket: sessions, stages, groups and a limit per room.

How we build it, to the client's rules:
- Capacity per session: Seats per session, room or time, with sold out shown at once and a waitlist when you want one.
- Paid and free: Paid tickets and free places side by side. A card hold on free places cuts no-shows.
- Check-in at the door: Staff scan tickets on their phones and see who has arrived.
- Sessions and stages: A programme of talks, workshops and stages, where guests book the parts they want.

Compared with a SaaS tool:
- Fees. In a SaaS tool: A fee on every ticket sold. In your own system: No fee per ticket. You pay only the payment provider.
- Guests. In a SaaS tool: The guest list belongs to the platform. In your own system: The guest data is yours.

FAQ:
- Q: Can we sell tickets for a one-off event?
  A: Yes. Startup Festival Wrocław had its booking system live in two days, from day one of registration.
- Q: What does this feature add to the price?
  A: It is part of the one fixed price for your system, and you see it in the quote before the build starts. Most projects cost $15,000 to $50,000 in total, paid once, with no subscription and no commission on bookings.
- Q: Can you add it to a system we already run?
  A: Yes. We build it into a new system or into the one you already run, with its own quote. When the feature has an Agent Skill, your own developers can also build it with the skill.
- Q: Who owns the code?
  A: You do. The code, the data and the documentation are handed over, and the system runs in your cloud account or on ours. Every project includes 3 years of support.
