Case Study: Aspen Gay Ski Week maximizes nonprofit ticket sales with Ecwid by Lightspeed

Aspen Gay Ski Week saves 18% per ticket and recovers $23k with Ecwid

Aspen Gay Ski Week, a week-long nonprofit LGBTQ+ fundraiser in Colorado, faced the challenge of maximizing donations while operating on a small budget. They needed a cost-effective way to sell event tickets online without the high service fees charged by their previous third-party ticketing platform. They turned to the ecommerce solution from vendor Ecwid by Lightspeed.

The solution implemented by Ecwid provided an efficient payment system with Lightspeed Payments, a seamless WordPress integration, and a shopping cart with no per-ticket fees. This allowed Aspen Gay Ski Week to save over 18% per ticket on service fees and recover $23,000 in revenue from abandoned carts. As a result, the nonprofit can now maximize funds for its community programs, having processed over $100,000 in revenue in a single day without issue.
