Usually cheaper
A flat $3.50 per ticket with no annual licence, no implementation fee and no per-user seats, where enterprise conference platforms charge by the year or by the user (Bizzabo lists $499 per user per month billed annually and Swoogo starts at $11,800 a year, as of September 2026).
Less for your team to do
Speakers upload their own bios, slides and session details, the agenda builder resolves room conflicts, badges scan at the door and reminders send themselves, so the registration desk and the program committee spend their hours on the program, not the inbox.

Conference registration and management software, in one platform
Most conferences run on a patchwork: a registration form from one vendor, an agenda app from another, a spreadsheet for speakers and a badge printer at the door. Eventist replaces the patchwork with one conference management system, so registrations, the agenda, the speakers and the badge desk all share one set of data.
Registration that asks the right questions
Build registration tiers for early-bird, member, student and VIP passes, then collect session choices, workshop seats, dietary needs and affiliations per attendee. Waivers are signed at checkout, payment plans split a higher-priced pass into a deposit and instalments, and abandoned-cart recovery follows up with people who started registering and stopped.
Multi-track agenda with AI room suggestions
Lay out every track by drag and drop or let the AI scheduler draft it from your sessions and rooms. Eventist flags a speaker or a room booked in two places, suggests rooms by capacity, and pushes each change to the speaker dashboards, the attendee portal and the printed-style agenda from the same data.
Speaker dashboards and the attendee portal
Speakers upload their bio, headshot and slides and see exactly where and when they present. Attendees get a personal portal with their schedule, the interactive venue map and their QR badge, and drip campaigns keep both groups informed before, during and after the event.
Badge scanning, exhibitors and the crew
Scan QR badges from any phone at the registration desk and at session doors, and run walk-up registrations through the built-in POS. Exhibitors buy booths through the same checkout and appear on the live map, while staff and volunteers get roles, a task board and a read-only run-of-show for event days.
Conference registration software on Eventist is a flat $3.50 USD per ticket, never a percentage, with no annual licence, no implementation fee and no per-feature add-ons, and card processing runs through Stripe or Square. You keep your attendee data, and real people help you set it up.

Conference registration software FAQ
What is conference registration software?
Conference registration software sells passes and collects what you need to know about each attendee: ticket tier, sessions or workshops chosen, dietary needs, affiliation, waivers. A conference management system goes further and runs the event itself: the multi-track agenda, speaker logistics, exhibitors, badge check-in and the attendee portal. Eventist is both in one platform, so a session moved in the agenda updates the speaker dashboard, the attendee schedule and the room map at the same time.
How much does conference registration cost on Eventist?
Eventist charges a flat $3.50 USD per conference ticket, never a percentage, with no annual licence, no implementation fee and no per-feature add-ons. Card processing runs through Stripe or Square at their published rate. A 500-person conference costs about $1,750 in platform fees; enterprise suites typically start at $10,000 a year before implementation.
Can attendees choose sessions and workshops during registration?
Yes. Registration fields collect session choices, workshop selections with capacity limits, dietary needs, affiliations and anything else you ask, per attendee or per order. Collections and tiers cover early-bird, member and student pricing, and deposit plus instalment payment plans spread a higher-priced pass across several charges.
How does multi-track scheduling work?
Drag speakers into rooms and time slots across as many tracks as you run, or let the AI scheduler draft the agenda from your sessions and room list. Eventist flags a speaker or room booked twice and suggests rooms by capacity. Speakers see their own sessions in a dashboard, and attendees build a personal schedule from the public agenda.
Does it handle check-in and badges?
Yes. Every registration carries a QR code, and any phone becomes a scanner at the registration desk or a session door. Scan, see the ticket and session status, and wave the attendee through. Walk-up registrations run through the built-in POS so they appear in the same reports as advance sales.
Can I manage exhibitors, sponsors and staff in the same system?
Yes. Exhibitors and sponsors buy their booth or package through the same checkout as attendees and appear on the interactive venue map once confirmed. Staff and volunteers get roles with their own dashboards, a task board for the run-up and a read-only run-of-show for the event days.
Is my attendee data mine?
Yes. Every registrant's name, email, answers and order history belongs to your organization. Export it whenever you like or connect it to your own email marketing or CRM; it stays yours after the conference ends.
