Badgetrac vs Eventbrite Lead Retrieval
Same Eventbrite, lower cost, simpler lead capture
Eventbrite offers a paid Lead Retrieval add-on for exhibitors to capture attendee contact info. If you're already on Eventbrite and want a more affordable, flexible way to give exhibitors lead capture, Badgetrac integrates natively with Eventbrite and provides web-based scanning at a fraction of the cost—with no per-exhibitor or per-lead fees.
