Cakepop is an event-ticketing platform designed to make buying and selling tickets more straightforward, accessible, and transparent. Its team of designers, engineers, musicians, and event fans brings experience building event and ticketing platforms, with a focus on connecting audiences to live experiences across music, sports, food and beverage, theater, and more.

For ticket buyers, Cakepop charges flat fees of $1 to $4 based on ticket price, while free events have no buyer fee. Fees are shown upfront, and attendees can securely transfer tickets when organizers allow it. Ticket resale and exchange features are planned but are not currently available.

Organizers can create events, embed checkout on their own websites, manage reserved seating, holds, and complimentary tickets, and access reporting and audit tools. Cakepop also offers event promotion, custom website and feature development, and support by phone, text, or email. Organizers pay standard payment processing fees of 2.9% plus $0.30 per transaction, with no hidden platform fees.
