    Sugar Calendar is now my go-to calendar due to its simplicity with adding new events. I’ve found that it was so much easier for my clients to use than some of the other event/calendar plugins out there while providing the features they needed most.
  • Stars
    Sugar calendar is an overall great plugin that’s easy to use, looks clean and was so easy to implement. Im so used to programs having a steep learning curve before I can truly use the program to its fullest potential, this is not the case for Sugar Calendar!
  • Stars
    Sugar Calendar does all that I need. I have never had a problem with it, and support has been responsive when I had questions. It’s easy to install, simple to configure. It looks great on my WordPress theme.

  • Stars
    Sugar Calendar is intuitive, and very user friendly. I love that the learning curve to use the calendar is so low. Even my non-tech clients can get their heads around it.

    Sugar Calendar is a selective and useful approach for time management and scheduling. It gives the exact appointment to the right person, and all the reminders are well set.

  • Stars
    Overall I’ve found sugar calendar to be a robust plugin that’s well maintained and offers everything you would need for a Wordpress plugin like this. It’s extremely user friendly and the simplicity of creating events, adding details, and more make this an amazing plugin.

    This is an incredibly solid plugin to use as a base. I’ve tried several others, and this one is better than all the others I’ve tried!
  • Stars
    Huge fan! Love the simple nature of this plugin. Perfect for a site that just needs a basic calendar with none of the bloat that comes along with The Events Calendar.

  • Stars
    I was just looking for a simple calendar to display a short events list inside a sidebar and a calendar on a single page. This plugin accomplishes this exactly as expected and, unlike the other many calendar plugins, this one provides two blocks which include the events list and also the calendar.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have a question about Sugar Calendar event ticketing? See the list below for our most frequently asked questions. If your question is not listed here, then please contact us.

What payment methods can I accept?

Sugar Calendar event ticketing integrates with Stripe, allowing you to accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and more). Stripe supports 100+ currencies and customers in 35+ countries. You can also enable Google Pay and Apple Pay for express checkout. Plus license holders can integrate with WooCommerce to accept PayPal and any other WooCommerce-supported payment gateway.

Do I need a Stripe account?

Yes, you’ll need a Stripe account to process ticket payments. If you don’t have one, you can sign up for free at Stripe.com during the connection process. Stripe is available in most countries and handles all payment processing securely.

What are the fees for using event ticketing?

With Sugar Calendar Lite, you’ll pay Stripe’s standard processing fees (2.9% + 30¢ per transaction in the US) plus a 3% service fee. When you upgrade to a Plus license or higher, the 3% service fee is removed, and you only pay Stripe’s processing fees. There are no monthly fees or hidden costs.

Can I sell free tickets (no charge)?

Yes! You can set ticket prices to $0 to offer free event tickets. You’ll still collect attendee information and manage registrations through the same interface.

How do attendees receive their tickets?

After completing a purchase, attendees immediately receive an email with their order confirmation and ticket details. They can print these tickets or display them on their mobile device. You can also manually email tickets to specific attendees from your WordPress dashboard.

Can I set a maximum number of tickets per event?

Absolutely. When you enable tickets for an event, you set a capacity limit. Once that many tickets have been sold, the “Buy Tickets” button is automatically disabled, and the event shows as “Sold Out.”

What happens if someone requests a refund?

You can process refunds through your Stripe dashboard. Once processed, you can manually update the ticket status in your Sugar Calendar admin area and notify the customer.

Is event ticketing included in the free version?

Yes! Core event ticketing functionality is available in Sugar Calendar Lite with a 3% service fee. Upgrade to Plus or higher to remove this fee and access advanced features like WooCommerce integration.
