Why should I use tix.africa?

  1. We save you time so you don’t have to collect payments manually and sending the webinar link to each person who pays. Who has time for that? Not you.
  2. It allows you to collect structured data: name, email address and phone number of all registered attendees. You can then contact them after the event (with their permission!) for feedback and follow up communication.
  3. Your event looks professional and organized when you use a ticketing platform.
  4. For free events, tix.africa is 100% free to use. We only charge for paid events and it’s a fixed fee of 5% on the ticket price.

Finally, we don’t think you will run into any challenges but if you do or have any questions, feel free to tweet at us or email us.
