So we built KwikTix. We're a team of professional event organisers who've run everything from 40-person workshops to 2,000-person conferences. KwikTix is the platform we wish existed when we were struggling with clunky, expensive alternatives.
"We tried every platform out there. They were either too expensive, too complicated, or missing basic features we needed. So we decided to build our own."
Like most good ideas, KwikTix was born out of collective frustration. We're a team of event professionals who've been running workshops, conferences, and community events for over a decade. Between us, we've organised everything from intimate 40-person masterclasses to massive 2,000-person industry conferences.
Every platform we tried had the same problems: hidden fees that ate into our margins, clunky interfaces that confused our attendees, and customer support that felt like talking to a wall. We spent more time fighting with our ticketing platform than actually planning our events.
The breaking point came during a 200-person event where our ticketing platform crashed during registration. We lost sales, frustrated attendees, and spent the entire week before the event dealing with technical issues instead of focusing on creating an amazing experience.
That's when we decided to build KwikTix. Not as a side project, but as the platform we genuinely wanted to use for our own events.
This is us at one of the first open-mic nights — 25 friends packed into my barbershop basement, singing their hearts out. We collected cash on the door and hoped for the best. The good old days — underground in every sense.
Fast forward two years - this is some of our team managing a 1000-person conference. Same principles, bigger scale. The platform that started from frustration with small events now can power some of the biggest gatherings locally.
These aren't just words on a wall. They're the principles that guide every decision we make.
Every decision we make starts with one question: 'Does this help creators succeed?' If the answer is no, we don't do it.
Transparent fees, no hidden costs, no 'contact sales' nonsense. You should know exactly what you're paying before you commit.
Your time is valuable. Whether it's setting up events or getting paid, we optimize for speed without sacrificing quality.
When you need help, you get a real person who actually understands your problem. No chatbots, no runaround.
We're proud of what we've built together with our community of event creators.
