Straight answers
Three lines we do not claim.
A card you can trust has to name what is missing from it. These three are true about Getvnt no matter which platform you are holding it against.
No marketplace
You bring the audience
Your public events can be listed on the Getvnt browse and search pages, but a listing is not a marketplace's built-in audience. What actually fills a room is your own schedule page, an embeddable calendar, a follower QR code, newsletters, and an interest list that emails people when tickets go on sale.
Seat maps are Enterprise
Ticket types, then seats
On Free and Pro a ticket type has a name, a price and a quantity, and buyers are not choosing a specific seat. A reserved-seating house needs Enterprise, where a venue schedule draws the room once and buyers pick their seats from the map.
One team member on Free
Extra members are Enterprise
The free plan is one person per schedule. Adding team members is on Enterprise and is capped at five on the hosted platform, so do not plan on inviting a whole staff for nothing.

The margin marks
Where the marks fall our way.
27 of the 41 lines above carry a diamond. Here are the 6 advantages over Splash that most often decide it, in plain language rather than table cells.
No Sales Process
Splash requires contacting sales and negotiating an enterprise contract. Getvnt lets you sign up and start creating events immediately - no calls, no demos, no waiting.
Instant Setup
Splash implementations can take weeks of onboarding. Getvnt is ready in minutes - create your schedule, add events, and share with your audience right away.
Transparent 5 NGN/mo
Splash hides pricing behind "contact us" forms. Getvnt is free forever, with Pro at a transparent 5 NGN/mo - no surprise invoices or annual commitments.
AI Event Parsing
Paste event details in any format and AI extracts everything automatically. Skip the lengthy setup process that enterprise platforms require.
Fan Engagement
Let attendees share videos and comments on your events, building community that goes beyond registration. Not available on Splash.
Open Source
Fully open source with selfhosting option. Own your data completely - no enterprise contract needed to control your event platform.

Why choose Getvnt?
Three things decide it against Splash: the money is yours, the code is public, and the calendar keeps itself in step with the one you already use.
What you get

- Free registration with no monthly ceiling, and a ticket scanned at the door on every plan
- Refunds from the Sales page on Pro, in full or in part, that send the money back through Stripe or PayPal
- One checkout for tickets to several of your events, and an interest list that emails people when tickets go on sale
- Passes, gift cards and installment payments on Pro, and allocated seating for venues on Enterprise
- Two-way Google, Outlook and CalDAV sync, free, so the public listing and your own diary cannot disagree
- Open source under the Attribution Assurance License, and selfhostable, which resolves to Enterprise
A fresh card
How to switch in 4 steps
Nothing has to move on day one. The schedule is useful the moment it exists, and the events and the list follow at whatever pace suits you.
01
Create your schedule
Free, no card, and it has its own address the moment it exists. Nothing has to move before it is useful.
02
Bring the events across
Paste a listing or upload the flyer and the parser fills in the name, date, time, venue and description for you to check. Fifty a day on the free and Pro plans (ten during a Pro trial), a hundred on Enterprise.
03
Bring your list across
Export the addresses you already have and paste them in or upload a CSV, up to ten thousand rows, on any plan. What the newsletter allowance counts is sending to them, not holding them.
04
Connect Stripe or PayPal and sell
Your own Stripe or PayPal account, so the money settles into it rather than into ours. Zero platform fees on every plan, a ticket with a price on it is Pro, and refunds go back through the same account.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about switching from Splash.
Is it easy to switch from Splash to Getvnt?
Yes. Unlike Splash, there is no enterprise onboarding or sales process required. Just sign up, create a free schedule, add your events, and share your schedule URL. AI import can speed up event creation too.
How does Getvnt pricing compare to Splash?
Splash uses custom enterprise pricing that requires contacting sales, with contracts typically running thousands of dollars per year. Getvnt Pro is a transparent 5 NGN/mo with zero platform fees and no annual commitment.
Can Getvnt handle corporate events like Splash?
Yes. Getvnt supports custom branding, embeddable widgets, custom CSS, and a REST API with webhooks on Pro for integration with your existing tools. Custom domains and multiple team members are on Enterprise.
Can my team work on the same schedule?
Yes, on Enterprise, capped at five members on the hosted platform. An admin runs the schedule day to day and sees its ticket sales, waitlist and check-in dashboard; a viewer is read-only and sees no sales, but can scan tickets at the door. The free and Pro plans are one person per schedule.
