Typeform alternative for event registration
Typeform makes a form people enjoy filling in. Then the responses land in a results table, and the guest list, the tickets, the reminders and the door are somewhere else. Mission Support starts with the same form and keeps everything that follows in one place.
In short
Pick Mission Support if the form is the start of an event: you need a capacity, a duplicates check, a confirmation with a ticket, reminders and a scanner at the door, under your own address and hosted in the EU.
Pick Typeform if you need surveys, quizzes or lead forms across the whole organisation, want the one-question-at-a-time experience, and are happy to run the event itself in other tools.

Mission Support is the better fit when
- The form is a registration and the room has a fixed number of seats.
- Every guest should get a confirmation, a ticket and a reminder without you exporting anything.
- Someone will stand at the door with a phone and needs a scanner, not a spreadsheet.
- The event page should sit under your own address, hosted in the EU, with no cookies on guest pages.
- You would rather pay for a plan than watch a monthly response counter.
Typeform is the better fit when
- You run surveys, quizzes, lead capture or HR forms for the whole organisation.
- The one-question-at-a-time design matters for completion rates.
- Responses must flow straight into Sheets, HubSpot, Slack or Zapier.
- You need logic jumps on the cheapest plan.
- The event itself is already handled elsewhere and you only need the form.
What it costs
Typeform prices by responses per month. On 3 November 2026 the pricing page lists Basic at 39 USD per month (28 USD per month billed yearly) with 100 responses a month and one user, Plus at 79 USD per month (56 USD yearly) with 1,000 responses and three users, and Business at 129 USD per month (91 USD yearly) with 10,000 responses and five users. The Free plan is described as having a limited number of responses; the page does not state the number. Removing the Typeform footer starts at Plus. A custom domain and the choice of an EU data centre are marked Enterprise only. Source: https://www.typeform.com/pricing/, 3 November 2026.
The response counter is the point to look at for events. A conference with 600 registrations in one month is over the Basic base of 100 and over half of the Plus base of 1,000, and the counter resets whether you have an event that month or not. A form that is open all year for a small series costs the same as one that is busy for three weeks.
Mission Support prices by plan, and the limit is guests per event. Free is €0 with one live event and 100 guests per event, no time limit. Plus is €49 per month or €490 per year with five live events, 500 guests per event, QR tickets, reminders and the door scanner. Pro is €149 per month or €1,490 per year with unlimited live events, 2,000 guests per event, personal invitations with approval, conditional logic, custom domain and white label. A single event pass is €199 one-off for Pro features on one event with up to 500 guests. All prices exclude VAT; the same numbers apply in USD.
There is no fee per guest and no fee per response. Paid tickets carry a platform fee of 2.5 % plus €0.50 per paid ticket on top of Stripe. Free tickets and free events carry no fee at all.
Where a Typeform stops being enough for an event
A Typeform registration works on day one. Someone fills it in, the response appears in Results, and you see the count go up. The trouble starts on day two. The room has 120 seats and the form does not know that. The same person registers twice, once with a typo in the email address, and the duplicates check is not on the plan you have. Two weeks before the event you want to remind everyone, so you export the list and build a mailing elsewhere. At the door, someone holds a printout and looks for names.
Each of these gaps can be bridged with an integration. Many teams do exactly that, and for a survey or a lead form it is the right design: Typeform collects, other tools act. For an event it means four tools and one spreadsheet in between, and the spreadsheet is where guests get lost.
Mission Support treats the form as the entry to a guest list. A registration creates a guest. The guest gets a confirmation mail, and on Plus a ticket with a QR code. The capacity is enforced on the form. Reminders go to the same list. The scanner at the door reads the same tickets and marks the same guests as present. Nothing is exported in between, and the Excel export is there when you want it, not because you need it.
What Typeform does better
Typeform is a better form builder than Mission Support, and that is not a small thing. The one-question-at-a-time flow is pleasant to fill in, and the templates, themes and video questions give a form a character that a classic one-page form does not have. If completion rate on a long questionnaire is your main worry, Typeform wins.
It is also broader. Quizzes with scoring, outcome pages, surveys with hundreds of question variations, lead forms that feed HubSpot or Salesforce, and more than five hundred integrations through Zapier on every plan. Conditional logic is included from Basic, while Mission Support puts logic on Pro. If you need one form tool for the whole organisation, Typeform is the one.
Mission Support does one thing with forms: registration for an event, plus follow-up forms you send to guests afterwards, for dietary needs, workshop choices or a short feedback round. Everything else about the product is the event: invitations, tickets, campaigns, check-in. If your forms are not about events, it is the wrong tool.
Capacity, duplicates and the quiet rules of a guest list
A guest list has rules that a response table does not. It has a maximum. It should not contain the same person twice. It has a registration window with a start and an end. Some guests bring a companion. Some decline, and a decline is information, not a missing row. Some guests were invited personally and should not have to register at all.
All of that is built in. Capacity is enforced per event and can be split into ticket categories. Duplicates are checked on registration. The window opens and closes on its own. Companions are a setting. Declines are recorded, both the guest saying no and the organiser turning someone down. On Pro, personal invitations with one link per guest replace the open form entirely, with optional approval before the ticket goes out.
The result is a list you can trust at the door, which is the whole point of collecting it.
Hosting, data protection and who sees what
Typeform offers the choice of a US or EU data centre on Enterprise, according to its pricing page. On Mission Support, every plan runs in the EU: database and app in Frankfurt, mails through Brevo in Paris, payments through Stripe in Dublin. The organiser is the controller and the platform the processor under Art. 28 GDPR. Guest pages carry no analytics and no cookies. A GDPR export per contact and a retention purge are available on Pro.
Branding follows a similar pattern. Typeform removes its footer from Plus upwards and offers a custom subdomain there, with a custom domain marked Enterprise only. Mission Support gives you your own event address on Plus and, on Pro, a custom domain with your own sender domain and no platform name anywhere on guest pages. On Free and Plus, guest pages show a small "Powered by Mission Support".
