The Chobble Tickets admin dashboard

Selling tickets

  • Stripe & Square

    Accept payments via Stripe or Square with fixed pricing or pay-what-you-want, and automatic refunds.

  • Overbooking prevention

    5-minute payment holds reserve places while attendees complete checkout, so you never oversell.

  • Refunds

    Process individual or bulk refunds directly from the admin panel with automatic payment provider sync.

  • Terms & conditions

    Set global terms that attendees must agree to before booking, with configurable contact fields and special instructions.

  • Registration deadlines

Managing events

  • QR code check-ins

    Every ticket gets a unique QR code that you can scan with any phone camera.
