motion vs Eventbrite for virtual events
Eventbrite sells the ticket, but the stream lives somewhere else. motion bundles ticketing and the live broadcast, with a paywall that actually gates access.
Eventbrite is a powerful ticketing marketplace, but for virtual events it stops at the ticket. You still have to run the stream on another tool and trust that the join link does not leak beyond ticket buyers.
motion combines both: the ticket and the live stream are the same thing. Access is verified at the door, so only buyers can watch, and you keep 90% with Naira or USDT payouts.
Everything you need, built in
No stitched-together stack. motion bundles the paywall, payments, and live video so you can focus on the show.
Ticketing + streaming together
One platform for the ticket and the live broadcast.
Paywall that holds
Access is verified at join time, so links cannot be shared freely.
Built-in interaction
Live chat, screen share, and on-stage guests are standard.
Flexible payouts
Withdraw in Naira or USDT, built for local and global audiences.
