The difference is, it's a social enterprise where the usual booking fees paid by the attendee, become feel good fees, shared with local not-for-profit organisations or charities.
It’s free to set up an account and create your event page. Free events are free. Feel GOOD Fees apply only when tickets are purchased.
The 4 per cent ticket booking fee is your Feel GOOD Fee. Instead of going to international ticketing corporations, this booking fee supports the work of Odyssey House Victoria and can be shared with other not-for-profit organisations or charities of your choice.
"Tix4good has been developed as an initiative that supports those doing good. We believe no one should ever have to face challenges alone. People need help to recover and to thrive. We feel privileged to be part of an initiative helping the community by supporting the journey towards a better tomorrow. By using Tix4good to promote and manage your events, you too will be helping many people change their lives...
You've helped raise funds to help people with drug and alcohol addiction at Odyssey House Victoria.
The NFPs we've helped really appreciate your efforts. Keep up the GOOD work.
That extra little bit always helps the schools and sporting clubs you've helped.
Thank you,
We’re a not-for-profit at Tix4good, so if you’re moved to do even more GOOD with a donation, we’d be rapt. And as you’d expect, it is fully tax deductible.
We don’t underestimate the power of the people, so if you can’t share a dollar (or even if you can), please share on social…

What rights do I have to access my personal data?
You are in the driver’s seat of your data. You own and control your data. Privacy law is all about the way you control how your data is handled.
Some key rights worth making sure you know about:
We also take an extra step of making sure if you request access to your information, that we verify you are you, and not an imposter. This is a standard safety check in line with our push to protect your Personal Information from anybody else, so we’ll ask for proof of identity (and guardianship for children) for your request.
We’ll only ever not be able to complete your request if the law forbids us.
What is different for children and teens?
Tix4good has services that are child friendly and for teens and we work with many fellow charities, community groups, schools and universities powering events. Same as adults, children have privacy rights.
Parents and Guardians, you are responsible for your child’s use of Tix4good services, including purchases and we will always work with you to ensure the safety of your loved ones.

We’d be sorry to see you go!
What do I do if I wish to make a complaint?
