No attendee marketing
Chobble Tickets stores the booking records an organiser needs. Chobble does not use those records for advertising, audience profiles or marketing other events.
Managed hosting and attendee data
Managed hosting stores attendee records in a database run for the organiser. Names, email addresses, phone numbers, addresses and custom answers are encrypted before storage.
The application decrypts these fields when an authorised organiser views them. Chobble operates the hosting but does not use attendee records for its own marketing, advertising or product analytics.
No attendee account
Attendees do not need a Chobble account and are not asked to follow events on a Chobble marketplace. They are not added to a Chobble mailing list.
Organisers decide which contact fields to collect. They can run free events without a payment provider and can make email addresses optional.
Service providers
A connected payment provider processes the details needed for paid bookings. A connected email provider receives the names and addresses needed to send messages chosen by the organiser.
Chobble Tickets supports Stripe, Square and SumUp for payments. Organisers can configure Resend, Postmark, SendGrid or Mailgun for email, or run without those services when the event does not need them.
How Chobble is funded
Chobble's hosted service is funded by annual or monthly organiser fees. It has no advertising income and does not sell attendee data.
Chobble is a community interest company. Its asset lock prevents profits and assets from being distributed to shareholders.
