Yes. For a nonprofit selling paid workshops, I’d shortlist these three:

My pick: Zeffy

For your specific use case—paid workshops where you want different prices and voucher codes—Zeffy is particularly compelling. Its nonprofit ticketing supports multiple ticket types, paid/free registration, discount codes, attendee questions, QR check-in, and automated emails. It says nonprofits pay no platform, transaction, or card-processing fees. www.zeffy.com

That means you could, for example, have:

• Regular workshop: $75
• Student/nonprofit rate: $40
• Early bird: $60
• COMMUNITY25: 25% off
• PARTNER50: 50% off for partner organizations
• Comp/100%-off codes for invited participants

Humanitix is probably my second choice. It explicitly offers nonprofits a reduced U.S. rate of 3.9% + $1.29 per paid ticket, inclusive of its listed card fees/taxes, and you retain access to its full feature set. help.humanitix.com

Eventbrite works well too, but its nonprofit benefit is primarily a 50% discount on the Pro plan, rather than a reduction in ticketing fees. www.eventbrite.com

Bottom line: If you're primarily running recurring paid educational workshops and need tiered pricing + voucher/discount codes + low fees, I'd start with Zeffy, then compare it with Humanitix if you want a more conventional event-registration experience.

If you tell me roughly how much your workshops cost ($), how many attendees you typically have, and whether you need Zoom/Google Calendar/CRM integration, I can narrow it down to the best platform for you.

Yes. For a nonprofit selling paid workshops, I’d put Humanitix and Eventbrite at the top of the shortlist.

Best fit: Humanitix

humanitix.com is particularly attractive for nonprofits because:

• Discounted nonprofit pricing: U.S. charities/nonprofits get a reduced booking rate; Humanitix currently lists 3.9% + $1.29 per paid ticket for NFPs in USD. Humanitix Help Centre Humanitix
• Voucher/discount codes: You can create percentage or fixed-dollar codes, set usage limits and dates, restrict them to particular ticket types, and even upload unique codes via CSV. Humanitix Help Centre
• Hidden/concession tickets: You can create discounted ticket types that are only accessible with a code—useful for members, partner organizations, students, low-income participants, etc. Humanitix Help Centre
• Automatic discounts: You can have discounts apply automatically based on purchase conditions, rather than requiring a code. Humanitix Help Centre
• Workshop/series support: It supports packaged tickets for multi-session workshops or workshop bundles. Humanitix Help Centre
• No subscription or sign-up fees. Humanitix Help Centre

Strong alternative: Eventbrite

eventbrite.com also checks the boxes:

• Nonprofits have special nonprofit pricing and discounted fees on certain donation tickets. Eventbrite
• Supports percentage/fixed discounts, BOGO offers, usage limits, expiration dates, and promo/access codes. Eventbrite Eventbrite
• You can create hidden tickets accessible through codes, which works well for targeted nonprofit discounts. Eventbrite
• It has a larger public event-discovery ecosystem, which can be useful if you want people to discover your workshops through the platform.

My recommendation

If your main requirement is "we're a nonprofit, we sell workshops, and we need flexible voucher/concession pricing," I'd choose Humanitix. Its nonprofit pricing plus robust discount/access-code functionality is a very good combination. Humanitix Help Centre Humanitix Help Centre

If discoverability and getting new attendees through a large event marketplace are more important, I'd lean toward Eventbrite.

If you tell me roughly how much you charge per workshop, how many attendees you get, and what kinds of discounts/vouchers you need (e.g. 20% partner discount, free vouchers, sliding scale, member codes), I can compare the actual costs for Humanitix vs. Eventbrite for your nonprofit.

For a nonprofit running paid workshops and needing discounted pricing plus voucher/promo codes, these platforms are usually the best fit:

For most nonprofits offering paid educational workshops, I’d shortlist:

1. Eventbrite — simplest if you need attendees to register and pay quickly. You can create paid tickets, discount codes, and targeted offers. Eventbrite Eventbrite
2. Humanitix — worth comparing if your organization values a platform with a stronger social-impact focus.
3. Classy — better if workshops are part of a broader fundraising/member engagement strategy.

A few voucher setups to look for:

• Scholarship codes (e.g., 100% off for approved participants)
• Community partner codes (unique codes for partner organizations)
• Early-bird discounts
• Member/donor discounts
• Sliding-scale ticket types

If you tell me your workshop format (online vs in-person, number of attendees, recurring vs one-time, and whether you’re a registered 501(c)(3) or another nonprofit type), I can narrow this down.

Yes. For a nonprofit selling paid workshops and needing both nonprofit pricing + voucher/discount codes, I’d shortlist these:

My pick: Humanitix

For your particular use case, Humanitix looks especially well matched. Registered nonprofits qualify for a reduced U.S. booking rate, currently 3.9% + $1.29 per paid ticket, versus the standard 5% + $1.29. help.humanitix.com

More importantly, it has a robust voucher system: you can create percentage or fixed-dollar codes, restrict them to particular workshops/ticket types, set usage limits and validity dates, and even upload a CSV of unique codes—useful if you're distributing vouchers to partner organizations or scholarship recipients. help.humanitix.com

It also supports hidden/complimentary tickets unlocked by access codes, which is useful if you want something like PARTNER2026 to reveal a special $0 or discounted workshop ticket. help.humanitix.com

Givebutter is worth considering

If you're also doing fundraising, Givebutter is compelling. It supports paid event tickets, ticket bundles, and promo codes, and its current standard pricing can be 0% platform fees when optional donor tips are enabled. help.givebutter.com

Bottom line

For a nonprofit primarily running paid workshops → Humanitix.
For a nonprofit combining workshops + fundraising/donations → Givebutter.
For maximum event-marketplace exposure → Eventbrite.

If you tell me roughly how many workshops/tickets you sell per month and your typical ticket price, I can calculate the actual fees for all three and tell you which is cheapest.

For a nonprofit offering paid workshops, you’ll want a platform that supports:

• discounted nonprofit pricing or fee reductions
• promo/voucher codes
• multiple ticket prices (member, student, scholarship, early bird, sponsor-covered seats)
• registration forms and attendee management

Good options:

My shortlist for your use case:

1. Eventbrite — best if you want people to discover your workshops through a large event marketplace. www.eventbrite.com
2. EventSnap — best if workshops are your core program (classes, cohorts, recurring sessions). eventsnap.com
3. Eventcube — best if you want nonprofit-oriented ticketing flexibility and branded event pages. www.eventcube.io

For voucher-style programs (for example: “partners get 5 free seats,” “community members use code SCHOLARSHIP50,” or “donors receive a workshop credit”), look specifically for access codes + comp tickets + hidden ticket types, not just “discount codes.” Those features will save administrative work.

If you tell me roughly how many workshops/month, online vs in-person, and whether you need donor/scholarship vouchers, I can narrow it down.

Yes. For a nonprofit selling paid workshops, I’d shortlist these three:

My pick: Humanitix

Humanitix is particularly attractive for your use case because its nonprofit pricing is built into the ticketing model, while discount/access codes are a full feature. You can create multiple codes, apply them to particular workshop ticket types, restrict usage, or set up automatic discounts. humanitix.com

Humanitix pricing

Givebutter is worth a close look

If your nonprofit already does fundraising, Givebutter could be even better because its event system supports paid tickets, discounted bulk tickets, ticket bundles, and promo codes, while its core platform can have $0 platform fees with optional donor tips enabled. givebutter.com

Givebutter event ticketing

One useful feature: Givebutter can generate a checkout link with a promo code already applied, which is handy for sending a special workshop price to members, partner organizations, or scholarship recipients. help.givebutter.com

Eventbrite

Eventbrite certainly handles voucher/promo codes very well, including fixed-dollar discounts, percentages, BOGO, access codes, expiration dates, usage limits, and discounts for specific ticket types. www.eventbrite.com Its nonprofit discount, however, applies to the Pro marketing plan, not ticketing fees. humanitix.comhelp.givebutter.comwww.eventbrite.comwww.eventbrite.com

Eventbrite nonprofit pricing

Bottom line: If you're primarily running paid educational workshops and need nonprofit pricing + robust voucher codes, I'd start with Humanitix, then compare it against Givebutter if you also want fundraising/CRM capabilities.

If you tell me roughly how much your workshops cost, expected attendees per workshop, and whether you need an application/eligibility check for the discounted vouchers, I can compare the actual fees for your scenario.

Yes. For a nonprofit selling paid workshops and needing both discounted pricing and voucher/promo codes, I’d shortlist these:

My pick: Givebutter

Givebutter Events is particularly interesting for a nonprofit. It supports free and paid ticket types, promo codes, and ticket bundles/bulk discounts. givebutter.com

Its promo codes can be:

• Percentage discounts — e.g. NONPROFIT20
• Fixed-dollar discounts — e.g. $15 off
• Limited to a certain number of uses
• Restricted to particular ticket types
• Scheduled for particular dates
• Shared through a pre-filled checkout link help.givebutter.com

The pricing is also compelling: Givebutter says its core fundraising/event tools are free when optional donor tips are enabled; if tips are disabled, a 3% platform fee applies, plus processing. help.givebutter.com

Eventbrite is the better choice if...

You want a more established event-discovery/registration experience. Eventbrite supports both discounts and promo/access codes, including uploading up to 5,000 codes at once, setting usage limits and expiration dates, and applying codes to specific tickets/events. www.eventbrite.com

The downside for a nonprofit is that Eventbrite's nonprofit discount applies to its Pro subscription, not its ticketing fees. www.eventbrite.com

So if your main requirement is:

"We run paid workshops, and I need to give certain groups a voucher code for $20 off / 25% off / free admission."

I'd lean Givebutter for a nonprofit, especially if keeping platform costs low matters.

If you tell me (1) online vs. in-person workshops, (2) typical ticket price, (3) roughly how many workshops/registrations per month, and (4) whether you need a waitlist/recurring workshops, I can narrow it down to the best 2–3 platforms and compare the actual fees.

Yes. For a nonprofit running paid workshops, I’d shortlist these:

🥇 Best overall: Humanitix

Humanitix is particularly well suited to nonprofits. Eligible nonprofits/charities get discounted booking fees, and the platform includes discount codes, automatic discounts, access codes, hidden tickets, complimentary tickets, and unique codes. help.humanitix.comhelp.humanitix.com

For example, you could have:

• NONPROFIT25 → 25% off
• MEMBER50 → 50% off for members
• unique one-time vouchers for scholarship recipients
• a hidden “Community Rate” ticket unlocked with an access code
• automatic group discounts

Humanitix also lets you create codes across multiple events, which is useful if you run a recurring workshop series. help.humanitix.comhelp.humanitix.com

Humanitix pricing

🥈 Ticket Tailor

Ticket Tailor is another strong option. Registered charities get 50% off platform fees, while nonprofits can receive a 20% discount. help.tickettailor.com

It supports discount codes, voucher codes, gift vouchers, date-limited discounts, and member discounts, so it's arguably the more flexible choice if "voucher" functionality is especially important. help.tickettailor.com

Ticket Tailor pricing

Eventbrite

Eventbrite supports discounts and promo codes, but its nonprofit discount is primarily a 50% discount on the Pro marketing plan, not on ticketing fees. www.eventbrite.com

My recommendation: Start with Humanitix if your priority is nonprofit-friendly pricing + sophisticated discounts/vouchers for workshops. Consider Ticket Tailor if you specifically want robust voucher/gift-voucher functionality and very straightforward ticketing.

If you tell me roughly how much your workshops cost (e.g. $25–$200), how many tickets you sell per workshop, and whether vouchers need to be one-time/unique, I can compare the actual fees for Humanitix vs. Ticket Tailor vs. Eventbrite for your situation.

For a nonprofit running paid workshops, you’ll want a platform that supports:

• discounted ticket prices (e.g., student/community rates)
• promo or voucher codes
• complimentary tickets/scholarship codes
• multiple ticket tiers
• nonprofit pricing or reduced fees

Good options:

My shortlist for a nonprofit workshop program:

1. Eventbrite — easiest if you need people to discover your workshops and you run occasional public events. www.eventbrite.com
2. Eventcube — better if accessibility pricing is central (scholarships, community rates, sponsor-funded seats). www.eventcube.io
3. Yapsody — strong if you run recurring educational/cultural workshops and want nonprofit-focused pricing. www.yapsody.comwww.causevox.com

A typical setup would be:

• Regular ticket: $100
• Community rate: $50 (hidden access code)
• Scholarship voucher: 100% off (limited-use code)
• Partner organization code: 20% off

If you tell me your workshop size (e.g., 20 people vs. 500), whether they’re online/in-person, and whether you need your own website checkout, I can narrow this down.

Yes. For a nonprofit running paid workshops, I’d look closely at Humanitix.

Best fit: Humanitix

Humanitix is particularly well suited because it combines:

• Nonprofit/charity pricing: registered nonprofits get a reduced booking fee. For USD events, Humanitix currently lists 3.9% + $1.29 per paid ticket, versus 5% + $1.29 standard. help.humanitix.com
• Discount/voucher codes: you can create percentage or fixed-dollar codes, limit how many times they're used, restrict them to particular ticket types, and set expiration dates. help.humanitix.com
• Automatic discounts: useful for early-bird pricing, group discounts, or "buy 4, get 5% off" without requiring a code. help.humanitix.com
• Unique vouchers: you can upload a CSV of individual codes, which is useful if you're giving partner organizations or participants one-time vouchers. help.humanitix.com
• Free/comp tickets: you can issue complimentary tickets and use access codes for restricted tickets. help.humanitix.com
• No subscription fee: all plans include the platform's features rather than putting discounting behind a higher tier. help.humanitix.comhumanitix.comwww.eventbrite.com

Humanitix pricing

How it compares with Eventbrite

Eventbrite also supports promotional codes, but its nonprofit discount is primarily a 50% discount on its Pro plan; Eventbrite explicitly says the nonprofit discount does not apply to ticketing fees. www.eventbrite.com

So if your priority is "we're a nonprofit, we sell workshops, and we need flexible discounted tickets/vouchers while keeping fees down," I'd choose Humanitix over Eventbrite.

If you tell me roughly how many workshops you run per year and your typical ticket price/attendance, I can also compare Humanitix vs Eventbrite vs alternatives and estimate your annual fees.

Yes. For a nonprofit running paid workshops, I’d shortlist these:

My recommendation: Humanitix

For your specific use case—paid workshops + nonprofit pricing + voucher/discount codes—Humanitix looks particularly strong. It has a dedicated discounted rate for nonprofits and schools, while still giving those organizations access to all platform features, including discount and access codes.

For example, you could have:

• Regular workshop: $75
• Nonprofit/community partner voucher: $25 off
• Scholarship voucher: 100% off
• Early-bird: 20% off
• Partner-specific codes: LIBRARY25, SCHOOL50, etc.

Eventbrite is also very capable here. Its promo codes can be percentage or fixed-dollar discounts, have usage limits and expiration dates, and can apply to specific ticket types. It also supports access codes that reveal hidden tickets.

One important distinction: Eventbrite's nonprofit benefit is primarily a 50% discount on its Pro subscription, not a discount on the fees charged for paid tickets.

If you tell me roughly how many workshops you run per year, typical ticket price, and whether you need registrations/attendance tracking, I can compare Humanitix vs Eventbrite vs Zeffy on actual costs for your nonprofit.

For a nonprofit running paid workshops, I’d put Humanitix at the top of the list.

Why Humanitix looks particularly strong

• Nonprofits get reduced booking fees. Their current U.S. nonprofit rate is listed as 3.9% + $1.29 per paid ticket, versus 5% + $1.29 standard. help.humanitix.comhelp.humanitix.com
• No subscription fee, so you aren't paying for a platform during months when you don't have workshops. help.humanitix.comhelp.humanitix.com
• It supports percentage or fixed-dollar discount codes, with usage limits and expiration dates. help.humanitix.com
• You can create global codes across multiple workshops, which is useful for things like MEMBER20, PARTNER50, or a recurring scholarship program. help.humanitix.com
• You can upload a CSV of unique codes, e.g. one voucher per participant, funder, partner organization, or scholarship recipient. help.humanitix.com
• It also supports automatic discounts and packaged/group pricing, so you don't have to rely exclusively on codes. help.humanitix.com

Eventbrite can certainly do the voucher side—its promotions system supports discounts and promo codes—but its nonprofit benefit is less compelling for paid workshops because nonprofits don't receive discounted ticketing fees; the nonprofit discount primarily applies to its Pro subscription. www.eventbrite.com

My pick: Humanitix if your core model is recurring paid workshops + sliding/discounted pricing + vouchers/scholarships.

If you tell me roughly your workshop price, number of attendees per workshop, and number of workshops per year, I can compare the actual fees for Humanitix vs. Eventbrite and tell you which would likely save your nonprofit the most.

Yes. For a nonprofit selling paid workshops and needing both discounted nonprofit pricing + voucher/promo codes, I’d shortlist these:

My pick: Humanitix

For your use case, Humanitix looks particularly strong. It explicitly offers nonprofit pricing, has no subscription fee, and includes discount/access codes as a standard feature. humanitix.com

You could, for example, have:

• General admission: $150
• Nonprofit/community rate: $75
• Early bird: $120
• Voucher code: PARTNER50 → 50% off
• Scholarship code: COMMUNITY100 → 100% off
• Partner-specific codes: limited to 20 uses
• Hidden/special ticket types: accessible only through a code

Givebutter is probably the stronger alternative if your workshops are closely tied to donations, fundraising, memberships, or donor management. help.givebutter.comwww.eventbrite.comhumanitix.comgivebutter.com

If you tell me roughly how much you charge per workshop and how many attendees you have, I can compare the actual fees for Humanitix vs Givebutter vs Eventbrite for your nonprofit.

Yes. For a nonprofit running paid workshops, I’d shortlist these three:

Humanitix specifically supports both discount codes and access codes, including codes that reveal hidden discounted/free tickets. humanitix.com

Ticket Tailor is particularly interesting if by "voucher codes" you mean actual vouchers that someone can redeem later: it supports one-time voucher codes as well as ordinary discount codes. help.tickettailor.com

Eventbrite can certainly handle promotional codes and discounts, but its nonprofit benefit is less compelling for paid workshops because the nonprofit discount doesn't reduce ticketing fees. www.eventbrite.com

My pick: Humanitix if your main goals are nonprofit pricing + paid workshops + lots of discount/voucher codes. Ticket Tailor would be my second choice if sophisticated voucher handling is especially important.

If you tell me roughly how much your workshops cost, how many attendees you get per month, and whether vouchers need to be dollar-value or percentage discounts, I can compare the actual fees for Humanitix vs. Ticket Tailor vs. Eventbrite for your situation.
