Trumba review
A capable calendar and registration platform with extra costs for seats and paid events.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Trumba is a web-based event calendar and registration platform for organizations publishing public or internal events. It fits higher education, healthcare, government, libraries, K-12 schools, nonprofits, and other teams managing multiple calendars and event programs. The platform covers in-person, hybrid, and virtual events with branded embeddable calendars, customizable forms, open or invitation-only registration, attendance limits, waitlists, paid registration, attendee tracking, exports, email communications, and mobile-optimized onsite check-in. Multiple calendars and role-based sharing support distributed publishing across departments.
Pricing is structured around a $99.95-per-month Base Subscription, which includes unlimited calendars, events, and free registrations plus a publisher account. Additional Seats cost $30 per seat per month, while Event Submission and Custom Objects each cost $50 per month. Paid Registration adds $1 per transaction plus 1% of each transaction, alongside payment gateway processing fees; free events do not incur Trumba transaction fees. Enterprise adds unlimited user accounts, calendars, and events, implementation and ongoing support, with a HIPAA enterprise license and BAA available for healthcare organizations. A 30-day free trial is available, and client support services cost $200 per hour.
Its strongest fit is structured event publishing connected to registration operations: Stripe, Authorize.net, CASHnet, PayPal Express Checkout, InstaMed, and TouchNet support payment workflows, while iCal, CSV, JSON event feeds, imports, exports, and APIs support calendar ecosystems. Buyers needing attendee communications, check-in, and registration data in one web-centered system should consider Trumba. Organizations seeking a dedicated attendee mobile app, exhibitor tools, or a broader modern event-delivery suite should look elsewhere. The added seat, submission, and transaction charges also make the platform better suited to teams that can plan their publishing roles and registration volume carefully.
