The integration

What moves, and which way

Every flow is a trigger in Eventbrite and an action in Raiser's Edge NXT. Here are some of the flows SmartEVENTBRITE can run for you, to give you a feel for what lands in your database when someone books.

Eventbrite to Raiser's Edge NXT

Trigger

Action

Eventbrite

Someone books a place at one of your Eventbrite events

Raiser's Edge NXT

They are matched to a constituent, or created as a new one

Name, email, address and phone are updated, and a constituent code of your choosing is added

Eventbrite

The booking is for an event not yet in your database

Raiser's Edge NXT

The event is created in Raiser's Edge NXT, or updated if it already exists

Name, description, dates, times and capacity, keyed on the Eventbrite event ID so it is never duplicated

Eventbrite

A ticket is issued on the order

Raiser's Edge NXT

A participant record is added to the event

Participation level, RSVP status and date, and the answers to your booking questions

Eventbrite

A paid ticket is bought

Raiser's Edge NXT

The registration fee is recorded as a gift on the constituent

Fund, campaign, appeal and gift subtype set to your defaults, referenced to the Eventbrite order

Eventbrite

The booker adds guests to their order

Raiser's Edge NXT

Each guest gets their own participant record, linked to the host

Guests are added as relationships of the booker, so the host record shows who they brought

Eventbrite

An attendee is checked in at the door, or an order changes

Raiser's Edge NXT

The participant is marked as attended and the record is kept up to date

Updated orders run through the same flow, so nothing needs re-entering

The data

What lands in Raiser's Edge NXT

Each Eventbrite order carries the booker, the event, the tickets and the payment. SmartEVENTBRITE places each part on the right record, using the fields and defaults agreed during onboarding.

Constituent

Name Email and phone Home address Constituent code

Event

Event name Description and link Dates and times Capacity Eventbrite event ID

Participant

Participation level RSVP status and date Attended Booking question answers

Registration fee

Amount and date Fund, campaign and appeal Gift subtype Payment method and reference

Bookers are matched by name and email before anything is created, so existing supporters are updated rather than duplicated. The answers to your Eventbrite booking questions travel across as participant booking options, so dietary needs and access requirements are on the record without anyone retyping them. Which constituent code, fund, campaign and appeal to use are nominated during onboarding.

The payoff

Why teams choose it

No more manual imports

Bookings reach Raiser's Edge NXT as they are placed, with no exports to clean and no imports to run.

Everyone who books is on the record

Bookers and their guests are matched or created as constituents, so your event history is complete.

Events built for you

Each Eventbrite event becomes a Raiser's Edge NXT event with its dates, capacity and description already filled in.

Fees recorded as gifts

Registration fees land as gifts against your chosen fund, campaign and appeal, referenced to the Eventbrite order.

Attendance you can report on

Check-ins at the door mark participants as attended, so follow-up and reporting start from real data.

Someone else runs it

Configuration, monitoring and changes are ours to do. Our team has worked with Blackbaud products for more than twenty years.

Resources

Read more before you talk to us

Two things worth knowing before a demo: how the integration is priced, and how far it can be shaped to your requirements.

Pricing

One app or a bundle

SmartEVENTBRITE is licensed per year, with a one-off set-up fee. If you run more than one integration with us, multi-app bundles and what they include are on the pricing page.

Built around your database

Tried and tested flows, configured to fit

SmartEVENTBRITE runs on flows already in use by not-for-profit organisations working in Raiser's Edge NXT, so you are not starting from a blank page. But no two databases are set up the same way. Which constituent code new bookers receive, where registration fees are recorded, which events sync and how guests are handled are all configured to your requirements during onboarding.

  • Proven flowsAlready running for other Raiser's Edge NXT users
  • Shaped to your setupYour codes, funds, appeals, event filters and exception handling
  • Run by our teamConfigured, monitored and supported on SmartSYNC

Bring your requirements to the demo. We will walk through the flows against your own setup and tell you what is possible.

"I've been very pleased with the SmartEVENTBRITE connector and the responsiveness of the SmartTHING staff. Using the Connector has saved us a great deal of work as most of the registrations come directly and correctly into Raiser's Edge."
