Calendar-Based Ticketing: The Difference Between TicketSignup and TicketSpice
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 to make changes based on day, date, time slot, or ticket type. Calendar-Based ticketing means easier setup and management, and intuitive, actionable reporting.
By contrast, because TicketSpice is not built on a calendar, timed entry requires a series of manual actions to customize your event details, and lacks real-time “heat map” style data.
Sales Tax Compliance
With thousands of jurisdictions, sales tax is infinitely complex. While TicketSpice leaves you to figure that out for yourself, 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.
