Frequently asked questions
Do I need a ticketing plugin or separate ticketing software?
Neither. On Shopify, ticketing runs as an app rather than a WordPress-style plugin or standalone software: it installs into your existing store, tickets are sold as products, and checkout, payments, and reporting stay inside Shopify. That covers everything from a single workshop to festival and concert ticketing with QR check-in at the gate.
Which of these apps has a free plan?
Only Ticket Spot. Its Free plan costs $0 and supports both free and paid tickets, a hosted event page, an embeddable checkout widget, and basic attendee management for up to 20 attendees a month. Evey's "Lite" tier is free to install but charges $1 per ticket processed, so it's pay-as-you-go rather than free. We couldn't verify whether Seatedly or EventPrime offer free plans because their listings 404.
Is Evey's Lite plan free?
No. Evey Lite has no monthly fee, but it charges $1 for every ticket you process. So if you sell 100 tickets in a month, that's $100. It's free to install, not free to run. If you want lower per-ticket costs, the Growth ($19/mo + $0.75/ticket), Standard ($49/mo + $0.50/ticket), and Professional ($189/mo + $0.25/ticket) tiers reduce the per-ticket fee as the monthly price rises.
Why are Seatedly and EventPrime listed as unverifiable?
When we first checked on 2026-06-17 – and again on 2026-07-18 – both apps' Shopify App Store pages returned HTTP 404 errors, and neither name surfaced in App Store search. That usually means an app has been delisted, renamed, or the URL never existed. We won't publish ratings, prices, or features we can't confirm against a live listing, so we've marked both as unverifiable instead of guessing.
Which app is best for reserved or assigned seating?
Both verified apps support it, so it comes down to cost. Ticket Spot lists interactive seating charts with reserved seating across its paid tiers, starting at $29.99/mo. Evey offers reserved seating too, but only on its top Professional plan at $189/mo. So if assigned seating is central to your events and you want it affordably, Ticket Spot is the cheaper route of the two we could verify.
Can I scan tickets at the door with these apps?
Yes, with both verified apps. Ticket Spot includes a mobile QR check-in app on its Professional plan and above. Evey supports QR code ticket scanning for check-in as well. Both can also deliver Apple Wallet tickets, so attendees can keep their passes on their phones. We couldn't confirm check-in features for Seatedly or EventPrime.
How should I choose between Ticket Spot and Evey on price?
It comes down to flat versus per-ticket. Ticket Spot charges a flat monthly fee with an attendee cap, so your cost is predictable regardless of sales, and it adds no per-ticket transaction fee. Evey charges a monthly fee plus a per-ticket fee on every sale. At low volume, Evey's cheaper tiers can cost less; at higher volume, Ticket Spot's flat caps may be easier to budget around. Match the model to your expected ticket count.
