I'm researching better ways to sell fundraising events online. Currently I have TNEW forms that we make due with but they are far from ideal. I'm using the TNEW giving forms because we want the money to end up on the contribution screen. We have events of all different sizes throughout the year. At a basic level, I need people to be able to select the number of tickets they want and for the form to know how much to charge for that. For larger events I need to be able to collect guest names, dietary restrictions, seating info, etc. My questions are:
1. Is anyone successfully using TNEW giving forms to sell events in a way that is patron friendly?
2. If you aren't using TNEW forms, what other vendors are you using?
Thanks!
Hey Liz,
We aren't on Tnew so we use Donate2. It sounds like very similar functionality to what Colleen described in Tnew. Here's an example event we have going on D2 at the moment.

Hello Megan! I loved your event page you shared here, and I shared it with our marketing team member that designs our Donate2 pages. Would it be okay with you if I shared your contact into with him so he could reach out with a few questions on how you set this up?
Of course. Also the D2 team is really awesome to work with; if you haven't already, let them know what you're wanting to do and they will be great partners in building and prototyping the first set.
We've also been very happy with D2. Our upcoming event (not on sale yet, so I can't link it) has a custom URL and there's a lot can be done styling, background images and os on, as well as connected confirmation messages with tokens for including data from Tessitura and their responses (also recorded in CSIs).
