For cars and coffee

saturday morning, sorted.

A public event page people can find, RSVPs that cap the lot before it overflows, and tickets that scan at the gate. No per-ticket fee, so a free meet stays free.

Why it fits

the lot has a limit. so should the rsvp.

Ticketing platforms charge per ticket and know nothing about cars. carclub.org caps the lot, knows what everyone is bringing, and charges nothing to run the event.

Reach

a page google can find

Every public event gets an indexed page with a real preview card. Share the link once and it grows from there.

Capacity

cap the lot

Set a cap for the event and a cap per audience. When it fills, it closes. No overflow into the neighbor's parking.

Cost

$0 per ticket

Free meets are free. Paid meets pay Stripe's processing rate only, on your own Stripe account.

Public events

open the gate to anyone.

Open an event to the public and it gets its own page anyone can find. Guests sign up right on the page, RSVP, and pay, and the car they bring is on the RSVP. Keep the members-only dinner private on the same calendar.

  • Public event pages, indexed and shareable
  • Guest signup and RSVP on the event page
  • Members, applicants, guests, and public on one calendar
  • Hidden location until the RSVP is confirmed, if you want it

The gate

scan in. count cars.

Tickets scan on a phone. Attendance is a tap, and the roster shows who came, who paid, and what they drove. Staff can run the gate without admin rights.

  • Scannable tickets with a staff check-in view
  • Attendance counts toward membership requirements
  • Roster with car, payment, and waiver status
  • Refunds and comp tickets from the same screen

Beyond saturday

a crowd becomes a club.

Regulars apply, get approved, and start showing up in the forum and the marketplace. The cars-and-coffee that grew too big to manage becomes the club it always was.

  • Applications and screening for regulars who want in
  • Forum and member feed between meets
  • Marketplace for the parts everyone keeps asking about
  • Weekly events email to the whole list

FAQ

Do we need to charge to use it?
No. Free events are free to run. There is no platform fee and no per-ticket fee. If you charge, Stripe's standard rate applies on your own Stripe account.
Can people RSVP without being members?
Yes. Public events get a page where a guest signs up, RSVPs, and pays in one step, with no application or membership required. Regulars who want in apply for membership from the same page.
Can we cap the number of cars?
Yes. Set a cap for the whole event and a cap per audience, so guests can't fill the lot before members RSVP.
How is this different from Eventbrite?
Eventbrite charges per paid ticket and knows nothing about cars or members. carclub.org charges no platform fee, puts the car on the RSVP, and runs the membership side too. See the comparison page for the line-by-line.
