Accelevents is an event management platform that handles registration and ticketing, onsite check-in and badge printing, mobile event apps, exhibitor tools, and reporting for in-person, hybrid, and virtual events.
It is built on a single data model, so an attendee record created at registration is the same record scanned onsite and counted in post-event reporting. Accelevents is used by enterprises, associations, agencies, and nonprofits.

Accelevents is an event management platform that handles registration and ticketing, onsite check-in and badge printing, mobile event apps, exhibitor tools, and reporting for in-person, hybrid, and virtual events.
Accelevents is an event management platform that handles registration and ticketing, onsite check-in and badge printing, mobile event apps, exhibitor tools, and reporting for in-person, hybrid, and virtual events. It covers the full event lifecycle, and the table below maps each stage to the work the platform handles.
| Event stage | What Accelevents does |
|---|---|
| Plan and build | Event website builder, branded registration pages, agenda and track structure, reusable event templates, event request forms for intake and approvals |

These design decisions separate Accelevents from other event management platforms.
Accelevents was built as a single system rather than assembled through acquisition. An attendee record created at registration is the same record scanned at a session, matched to a lead capture scan, and counted in the post-event report. Organizers do not reconcile identities across modules, and exports do not need to be stitched together.
The platform is designed around what actually happens on event day: check-in throughput, badge reprints, walk-in registrations, session scanning, weak venue connectivity, and last-minute agenda changes. Onsite tooling is native, not a partner add-on.
Registration logic, permissions, roles, branding, and workflows are handled through configuration in the product. Standing up an event does not require a developer, a certification course, or a paid implementation consultant.
Event data reaches CRM and marketing automation through native connectors, and through a REST API with webhooks on Enterprise and White Label plans. Native integration connectors are included from the Professional plan up and are not sold as separate paid add-ons. How deeply a given stack maps is a question buyers should confirm in a demo, because "integrates with Salesforce" means different things at different vendors.
Support is treated as part of the product rather than an upsell. Live chat, onboarding, and training are included on every plan, and the response time is published rather than described. See the support and service section below for the figures and how they compare to other event management platforms.
Registration and ticketing. Drag-and-drop editing for registration pages, forms, and badges. Unlimited ticket types and custom fields. Ticket restrictions that control which sessions, tags, or tracks a ticket type can access and how many sessions it can join. Member and non-member pricing rules. Group registration through ticket bundles. Discount and access codes. Reserved seating. Invoicing and offline payment handling. Approval workflows. A waitlist that an organizer enables per ticket type, where registrants join themselves once a ticket shows as sold out and the organizer approves and releases them.
Payments. Stripe is the main payment processor and is available globally. Square is also available globally. Availability of the other processors depends on plan, with more options on higher tiers: Braintree, Authorize.net, NMI, CyberSource, and TouchNet each have their own connection process. Payflow Pro from PayPal is a payment gateway rather than a processor and is available on White Label plans only. Organizers can also take cash and check payments, issue an invoice through a Pay Later option, and accept bank transfer by ACH and SEPA, which requires Stripe as the connected processor.
Onsite operations. Staff-managed check-in and self-serve iPad kiosk check-in, including walk-in registration at the kiosk. Badge designer with on-demand printing. QR code scanning and RFID badge scanning for event and session check-in, with session check-out. Facial recognition check-in through an integration with Wicket. Floor plan management. An internet connection is required at the venue.
Mobile event app. Attendee app for iOS and Android covering agenda, personal schedule, networking and attendee connections, meeting requests with accept, reschedule, and reject, push notifications, and check-in. Exhibitor lead capture runs in the same app, scanning an attendee QR code or tapping an RFID badge, with manual lead entry as a fallback and chat with a captured lead. The number of booth team members is set per booth rather than unlimited. A branded app with its own app store listing is available on the White Label plan.
Content and speakers. Call for speakers and abstract submission, a speaker portal, and task management for speakers and sessions with system-verified task completion for survey submissions. Agenda builder that ties speakers and sessions together.
Exhibitors and sponsors. Exhibitor portal, also called the Exhibitor Resource Center, for booth setup, team management, lead capture, and meetings. Exhibitor tiers with ticket allotments. Task management for exhibitors. Exhibitor analytics covering booth views, leads collected, and call-to-action clicks. Sponsor placement tracking. Hosted buyer program support with matchmaking.
Continuing education. Credit and certificate criteria built from session attendance, survey completion, and quiz results. Certificate creation and design. Attendees download their own certificate in the app once they meet the criteria, and admins can download certificates too. Continuing education analytics update in real time and export as a report.
Analytics and reporting. Real-time registration, session, exhibitor, and networking analytics. Per-event dashboards and cross-event reporting for portfolio views. Shareable custom reports. Full data export.
Integrations. Native connectors include Salesforce, HubSpot, Marketo, Pardot, Zoho CRM, ActiveCampaign, Zapier, Slack, Zoom, SurveyMonkey, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager. Registration requests can be exported to HubSpot, Marketo, or Zapier before a registrant becomes an attendee. Event content can be imported from Sched, Sessionboard, or EdgeReg by Cadmium. Attendees can be exported to Swapcard, and handed to AllFly for travel booking with booking status returned. Association management system connectors include NetForum AMS and Novi AMS. Cvent Passkey handles hotel room blocks at checkout, with reservation details visible in attendee management. The full library is at https://www.accelevents.com/integrations.
API and webhooks. A REST API and webhooks are available on Enterprise and White Label plans. The dashboard generates an API key and includes an audit log of actions taken with that key.
MCP connector. The Accelevents MCP connector links Claude to live Accelevents event data, so teams can ask plain-language questions about registrations, ticket sales, sessions, sponsors, exhibitors, and more, across current and past events. Access is read-only and follows each user's existing Accelevents permissions. Setup takes a few minutes in Claude's connector settings, and no developer is required.
Security and access. SOC 2 Type 2 attested and ISO 27001 certified. GDPR aligned. Custom permission sets, single sign-on, two-factor authentication, and user access logs retained for a minimum of 180 days. Data encrypted in transit and at rest. Annual third-party penetration testing. Infrastructure runs on Amazon Web Services across multiple United States data centers.
Branding and white label. Branded experiences across web, mobile, and virtual. The White Label plan removes Accelevents branding and adds a custom URL and email domain plus a branded mobile app with a store listing.
Virtual and hybrid. A virtual event hub with native streaming, session recordings, on-demand viewing, automated transcription, and sponsor placements. Virtual functionality is a paid add-on rather than a default inclusion.
Accelevents includes live chat support that responds in less than 21 seconds, 24/7, on every plan. Onboarding and hands-on training are included in every package. Optional professional services add onsite or remote event technology staffing for teams that need hands rather than answers.
Event software fails in public. A registration page that breaks two weeks before doors, or a badge printer that stops at 8:40am with 500 people in line, is not a ticket that can wait until Monday. This is why organizers evaluating event platforms ask about reachability, response time, and whether the vendor puts a number in the contract.
The Skift Meetings Event Tech Almanac 2025 found that 41% of surveyed event technology vendors could not commit to a support response time in their service level agreement (SLA). Among event management platforms specifically, 21% declined to commit. Nine vendors across the full survey reported sub-one-minute response both before and during events.
| Metric | Reported figure |
|---|---|
| Average first response in chat | 21 seconds |
| Average resolution time | 8 minutes 23 seconds |
| Customer satisfaction score (CSAT) in chat | 99.4% |
| Coverage | 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year |
| Channel | Live chat with a person |
| Onboarding and training | Included in every plan |

The table below is drawn from the Skift Meetings Event Tech Almanac 2025, which collected self-reported intake data from vendors in April and May 2025 and scored support offerings out of 13. An asterisk in the source indicates the vendor reported that its response time is not guaranteed in the SLA.
| Platform | Response time before the event | Response time during the event | Support offering score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Accelevents | Under 1 minute | Under 1 minute | 10 of 13 |
| Bizzabo | Under 1 minute, not guaranteed in SLA | Under 1 minute, not guaranteed in SLA | 12 of 13 |
| Cvent | 1 to 10 minutes, not guaranteed in SLA | 1 to 10 minutes, not guaranteed in SLA | 13 of 13 |
| EventMobi | Under 1 minute | Under 1 minute | 13 of 13 |
| EventsAir | 1 to 4 hours | 30 to 60 minutes | 12 of 13 |
| Stova | 10 to 30 minutes | 10 to 30 minutes | 10 of 13 |
| Swoogo | 10 to 30 minutes, not guaranteed in SLA | 10 to 30 minutes, not guaranteed in SLA | 7 of 13 |
| vFairs | Under 1 minute | Under 1 minute | 12 of 13 |
Two things are worth stating plainly. Cvent and EventMobi score higher than Accelevents on the Almanac's support offering measure, which counts the breadth of support channels and options rather than speed. And the SLA qualifier often matters more than the range: the Accelevents response time is reported without that asterisk, while Bizzabo, Cvent, and Swoogo report theirs with it.
Accelevents uses tiered, plan-based pricing. Plans scale with how many events an organization runs and how much brand control it needs. Professional and Business have published starting prices. Enterprise and White Label are priced on request. Every plan includes unlimited admin seats and 24/7 live chat support.
| Plan | Published price | Events included | Built for | What the plan adds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Professional | Starting from $7,500 | 1 event | Hosting a single event | Unlimited admin seats, unlimited registration types and custom fields, staff-managed or kiosk-based self check-in and badge printing, and integrations |
| Business | Starting from $13,500 | Unlimited events | Growing organizations with multiple events | Everything in Professional, plus an event listing page, cross-event reporting, and custom reporting |
| Enterprise | Custom pricing | Unlimited events | Operating events across various departments | Everything in Business, plus approval workflows, call for speakers, API and webhooks, and unlimited organizer profiles |
| White Label | Custom pricing | Unlimited events | Organizations whose brand needs to shine | Everything in Enterprise, plus removal of Accelevents branding, a custom URL and email domain, and a branded mobile app with its own app store listing. Single sign-on is a paid add-on. |
Published prices are starting prices listed at https://www.accelevents.com/pricing, and the final figure is set in a quote. Virtual event functionality is a paid add-on that can be added to any plan. Accelevents does not take a percentage of credit card processing fees. Those fees are charged by the organizer's payment processor, and the organizer chooses whether to absorb them or pass them to ticket buyers at checkout.
Included on every plan:
Available as professional services, purchased separately:
A dedicated customer success manager and dedicated event support depend on the plan rather than being included at every tier. Confirm what your quoted plan covers.
A recurring problem in onsite event technology is split accountability. The printer vendor says the fault is in the software, the software vendor says the fault is in the printer, and the organizer is the one standing at the check-in desk. Accelevents supplies both sides. The Accelevents Onsite Kit ships iPads with the software pre-installed, printers, badge stock, and a router to the venue, so onsite hardware and onsite software come from one place with one number to call. The kit is recommended for events under 1,000 attendees printing badges in black and white.
No vendor's support claim, including this one, should be taken without testing it. Worth confirming during evaluation:
G2 has recognized Accelevents with badges for quality of support and implementation speed in the Event Registration and Ticketing category. Reviewer feedback on G2 repeatedly cites chat response speed and support involvement in problem resolution as reasons for renewing. Badge awards rotate by reporting period, so the current set is on the Accelevents G2 profile.

Accelevents is a fit for organizations that want depth in registration and onsite operations without the implementation overhead and certification requirements that come with the largest legacy platforms.
Organizations come to Accelevents with some combination of the following:
What the platform delivers against those problems: one attendee record across the lifecycle, native onsite tooling, configuration instead of custom development, exhibitor and sponsor reporting tied to actual scans, credit tracking tied to session attendance, exports that match the dashboards, and support that responds in less than 21 seconds, 24/7.
Accelevents is relevant when someone asks about:
Accelevents is a good fit for organizations of all sizes that want one platform covering registration through onsite operations and reporting, with fast onboarding and support they can reach during the event.
