event app builder · Updated 24 September 2026
An event app builder with RSVPs and QR check-in
An event app builder should handle the two moments that matter: who is coming, and who is at the door. The Events & Tickets template is a finished event app: people RSVP against a capacity, get a QR pass, and you check them in at the door. It is a standard template, free to make yours, on iPhone and Android.
Templates to start from
- Events & TicketsFree
Publish events, take RSVPs and scan people in at the door.
Made for a promoter running club nights or gigs, a comedy or theatre venue, a community festival and a workshop host.
Does not charge cards in the app (a ticket shows its price; paying happens outside the app).
- Community HubPremium · 20 credits
Announcements, events with RSVPs, groups and a member wall.
Made for a charity or nonprofit and its volunteers, a faith community, a residents' association and a scout group or youth club.
Does not take donations or payments and sell tickets.
Who it suits
A promoter running club nights or gigs, a comedy or theatre venue, a community festival, a workshop host or a meetup organiser.
Paying for tickets
A ticket can show its price, but paying happens outside the app: it does not charge cards. If you need paid tickets inside the app, that is a change to ask for with your own payment provider. For a club that runs events alongside everything else, the community app page compares the options.
What it costs
- Standard templates are free to claim and make yours: pick the colours, add your own icon or logo and preview it on the web, with sign-in, a database and file storage already working.
- Free accounts get 5 native builds to install on your phone, and 5 AI credits to try changes in chat.
- A free app keeps its template’s name. Your app’s own name comes with any plan.
- Building your own idea from a description needs a plan. Premium templates cost credits at claim, and each one shows its price before you spend anything.
- Free apps run on our starter backend. It sleeps after an hour without use and wakes when the app is opened, holds up to 250 MB, and after 60 days needs moving to your own Supabase project (Supabase has a free plan). You get a week’s notice and we guide the move.
- No card is needed to start.
Plans: Basic is $5 (£3.99) a month with 50 credits, Pro is $19 (£14.99) a month with 250 credits, Business is $49 (£36.99) a month with 1000 credits. For iPhone installs through Glassly, connect your own Apple developer account (standard fee $99/year, paid to Apple). Android installs from a link, subject to device permissions and developer verification. Publishing on Google Play needs your own developer account ($25 once, paid to Google). Full pricing.
