TicketSpice and RegFox are designed for different kinds of events. TicketSpice is an event ticketing platform built to sell tickets quickly with minimal data entry, while RegFox is an event registration platform built to collect detailed information from every registrant. This article breaks down how the two products differ so you can choose the right one, or use both, for your events.

Compare Attendee Data

The biggest difference between the two products is how much information they're built to collect from each person who signs up.

  • TicketSpice is built to collect more minimal information needed to issue a ticket. While you can still add custom fields to a TicketSpice page to collect more from your attendees, most organizers ask for limited information, including the ticket buyer's name and billing details

  • RegFox is built to collect detailed information for every registrant, such as name, address, email, session choice, meal choice, T-shirt size, room choice, and job title

Pro Tip: TicketSpice is typically used for events that require less information for each attendee, including concerts, music festivals, shows, exhibits, and galas.

RegFox is typically used for events where registrant details matter, like conferences, camps, classes, and conventions.


Compare the Buying Experience

TicketSpice and RegFox also walk buyers through checkout in different ways, which is worth considering alongside how much data you need to collect.

  • TicketSpice: The buyer selects how many tickets they want from a ticket block, enters any order-level information once, and checks out for the whole order at one time

  • RegFox: the person checking out adds each registrant one at a time, completing all required fields for that registrant before adding the next person to the order

Example: In TicketSpice, a buyer can grab four tickets to a concert in a couple of clicks. They then enter any other information for the order and check out.

On a RegFox page, someone signing up four campers fills out the full registration form for each camper individually before checking out.
