Sales Tax Compliance

With thousands of jurisdictions, sales tax is infinitely complex. TicketLeap leaves you on your own to use extra fees to calculate and remit sales tax (hope you’re a tax expert!). Meanwhile, TicketSignup handles every step of sales tax compliance. Stress free.

We Calculate Sales Tax

Powered by a direct integration with Avalara, we automatically check real-time rules across thousands of jurisdictions to determine the exact taxability of your specific tickets, merchandise, and location.

We Collect Sales Tax

We seamlessly add the exact, accurate sales tax to the buyer’s checkout total. No guesswork. No hidden “extra fees” disguised as tax that put you at risk of non-compliance.

We Remit Sales Tax

You never have to write a check to the state again. In marketplace states, we automatically file and remit the collected sales tax directly to the applicable jurisdictions on your behalf.

We Report Sales Tax

Summary and detailed line-item sales tax reports are easy to view, filter, and export whenever you need them.

A Full Event Website and Integrated Email (All Free)

Unlimited Email

TicketLeap offers limited operational email to previous attendees, with no custom list uploads to allow for marketing to new potential buyers. TicketSignup email is free and unlimited — because proactive email marketing is crucial for event success.

Unlimited contacts, unlimited sends, and automated emails included.

Customized Event Website

TicketLeap offers websites, but provides a set template with limited flexibility and a dated look. TicketSignup provides a free event website with a built-in website builder — add pages, create menus, customize fonts and colors, make edits, and use your own domain.

Unlimited website pages. Your event brand.

Calendar-Based Ticketing: Easier Setup and Management

TicketSignup’s patent-pending Calendar-Based Timed Entry is Calendar-Native. That means everything (every ticket, time slot, and price point) is built on a real calendar. This means your backend always looks like your front-end, and it’s easy for you to make changes based on day, date, time slot, or ticket type.

While TicketLeap has limitations on events with 100+ time slots and customizing each time slot, TicketSignup gives you full control for an optimal setup.

Calendar-Based ticketing means easier setup and management, and intuitive, actionable reporting.

TicketSignup Knows Your Time is Valuable

Customer service is important – but it can eat up a considerable amount of your valuable time. At TicketSignup, we give you the tools to help you help your customers efficiently and accurately.

AI Chatbot for Customer Support

Tired of answering the same emails over and over? Every event on TicketSignup can access a free AI Chatbot for customer support. Your AI agent is trained on your specific event data, with answers you can see and optimize in real-time.

“We immediately noticed emails nearly came to a halt. In the end, we saw an 80% reduction in support volume, participants were getting answers faster than we ever could, and we’re now saving 5–10 hours a week.”

– David Hutnik, Coastal Race Productions

TicketSignup Email Contact Form Icon

Custom Contact Forms

Using a single contact email can create a bottleneck. With TicketSignup’s flexible Website Builder, you can add multiple custom contact forms that all point to different people.

Customer service is a breeze when volunteer questions go to the volunteer coordinator, sponsor inquiries go to your sponsorship manager, and race questions get directed to your race director. Less forwarding, faster answers.

TicketSignup’s 100% US-Based Support Team

TicketLeap’s customer support has limitations, with only emergency responses on weekends and wait times of a full business day. TicketSignup is designed for self-serve, giving you instant control. When you do need help, our 100% US-based support team is available seven days a week and responds quickly: average response time is under an hour.

Liz, Downtown Statesville

“The point of having a good ticketing system is to be seamless and connected to them throughout the whole event cycle. It was important to us that our branding be highly professional, including our website and emails. TicketSignup makes ticketing simpler so we can focus on delivering the best possible experience to as many people as possible.”

Jill, Grand Targhee Resort

“As a non-profit, RunSignup and TicketSignup has been a wonderful tool for us to use at our events. It’s user friendly and is easy for our volunteers to learn and utilize on event day. This allows us to focus on building connections with our guests/participants and sharing the impact that these events have on the zoo.”

Stacy, Miller Park Zoo

“I’m super happy with TicketSignup overall. I looked into other waiver possibilities and I decided to go back to this one because it seemed like the easiest, most effective platform. I’m going to choose this again next year.”

Taylor, Indian Springs Ranch

“I would highly recommend TicketSignup. If a colleague asked, ‘I’m starting a business—what platform should I use for registration?’ you’d be the first company I would share.”

Julie, Ripple of Light Bereavement Resource Center

TicketLeap has limitations on the number of time slots you can add in self-serve setup, and changes like caps apply across ticket types, making individual updates impossible.
