Most event-app companies won't show you a price until you've sat through a sales call. We will. Here's our pricing, their pricing, and the fees they'd rather mention later, side by side.
The short version: $2,500 puts your event on one branded link. $4,500 makes it an app people use all weekend. $6,500 adds the tools your crew runs the event with.
Think of it as your event's brochure, minus the printing bill: one link that answers every question your attendees ask all weekend: who's on, where's the food, what time does it open. Put it on posters, socials, and signs.
Everything in the Guide, plus the reasons somebody pulls their phone out mid-event: a push alert when the schedule slips, a map that gives directions to booth 42, your own domain on the poster.
For events with staff, vendors, and moving parts. The app your attendees see, plus the tools your crew runs the weekend with, and us on call while they do.
Multi-event organizations, ticketing and data integrations, parking and traffic tools, sponsor Wi-Fi, onsite event-weekend staffing, modules nobody's built yet. We do that work too. It's quoted by scope, because pretending custom engineering has one flat price is how the rest of the industry ended up at "contact us." Tell us what you're running and we'll put a real number on it.
"Starting at" means exactly that: the listed price covers one event of up to three event days at the scope shown. What can move a quote up is listed below, and you'll know your number before you commit to anything.
Every row here is built and running today on real Alaska events, in real weather. Not a roadmap slide.

Published or widely reported pricing as of mid-2026. Every one of these is a capable product. We just think you should see the whole bill before the demo, not after.
| Platform | Real-world cost | Pricing public? | How attendees get it | Registration / attendee fees | Where they are |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Coop HQ | $2,500 / $4,500 / $6,500+, all published above | Yes, this page | Link & QR, installs to home screen | None | Alaska. You can call us. |
| Whova | Quote-only; typically reported $3,000–$6,000/event, add-ons reported up to $2,000 extra | No, sales call first | Native app first; web version exists | 3.0% + $0.99 per paid ticket through Whova registration (free tickets: none) | San Diego, CA |
| EventMobi | From $3,000–$3,500/event or ~$8,900/yr; streaming add-ons from $500 | Partially | Native + web | None on app plans | Toronto, Canada |
| Guidebook | From ~$3,750/event; small-event plan capped at 200 attendees | Starting price only | Native app | None on app plans | San Francisco, CA |
| Appmiral | €339–€599/month billed annually (≈$4,400–$7,800/yr); Pro reported €10,000+/yr | Tiers public, Pro is quote | Native app | None | Belgium |
| Aloompa / Leap | Quote-only; festival builds historically reported $10,000–$30,000+ | No | Native app | Varies by contract | Nashville, TN |
| LineUpr | Free under 50 attendees; roughly $459–$929/event at 1,000 attendees | Yes | Web | None | Germany |
| ExpoFP | $990–$2,100 per event, for the floor plan alone | Yes | Web | None | Remote / intl. |
Credit where due: LineUpr publishes prices and skips the App Store, same as us, but it's self-serve template software, so your team does all the building, and there's no interactive floor plan, no staff tools, and nobody to call when the schedule falls apart Saturday morning. And the floor plan ExpoFP sells for up to $2,100 standalone? Included in our $4,500 package.
Quote-only pricing means two events the same size can pay wildly different amounts: whatever the rep thinks your budget is. If a company won't print a number, the number is negotiable. Ours is printed.
Run registration through some platforms and 3% + $0.99 comes off every paid ticket. On 5,000 tickets at $40, that's roughly $10,900, often more than the app itself. We don't sell ticketing, and we never touch your ticket revenue.
Document uploads, streaming packs, extra admins, "premium" support: add-ons reported at $500–$2,000 each stack up after you've already committed. Our packages say what's inside, and the table above is the receipt-level detail.
The platform fee buys software. The forty hours of typing in vendors, set times, and map pins? On most platforms that lands on your team. With us, setup is part of the product. You send what you have, we build from it.
Native-first apps mean App Store review cycles, forced updates, and attendees standing at your gate downloading 80MB on festival Wi-Fi. Ours opens from a QR code in seconds and saves to the home screen.
Several platforms cap attendees per plan (one caps its entry plan at 200) and re-quote you as you grow. Your crowd showing up shouldn't be a billing event.
Quote-only pricing resets at renewal, right when switching platforms would hurt most. Ask us what year two costs before year one starts and we'll answer in writing. Rolling your event forward runs a fraction of launch, because the build's already done.
When the schedule changes at 7am Saturday, a support portal in another time zone doesn't help. We're in Alaska, we answer during your event. Same day, a real person.
The Coop HQ / My Alaska Event is a local company. The platform was built running real Alaska events: outdoor festivals with spotty coverage, vendor grids that change the night before, weather that actually matters. That's why it's web-first, light on bandwidth, and built around an admin your own team can run.
No per-ticket skim flowing to a platform Outside. Flat, published launch pricing.
The people who configure your platform are the people who answer during your event.
White-label under your name and domain. Your content and attendee data stay yours, exportable, always.
