AboutTryBooking

Supporting communities through events.

TryBooking’s online event ticketing software was built on the idea that anyone, anywhere, wanting to organise an event should have the tools to simply do so. We bring that idea to life every day for community organisers right across New Zealand.

The focus of our efforts is the event organiser, who works hard to ensure that their attendees have a great experience. We share that passion for bringing people together, creating memories and enriching lives.

Your data belongs to you, and we treat it that way.

We don’t sell, share or mine your data – ever. Your booking information is yours alone, and we see ourselves as its custodian rather than its owner.

Every payment runs through PCI DSS compliant rails – Stripe and Fat Zebra handle cards, so nothing sensitive touches our servers. The platform is TLS encrypted end to end, and we’re GDPR compliant across every region we serve.
