Brushfire · FinOps Profile

Brushfire Finops

FinOps view of Brushfire spend. Brushfire bills on a per-ticket basis rather than a metered API subscription - the REST API and App Key are free, and cost is incurred when paid tickets are sold, whether through the UI or the API. Published per-ticket fees vary by organization type (for example $0.75 for attractions/education, $1.50 for general events, $1 + 1% for faith organizations, or a $299/mo flat option for smaller churches), and credit-card processing through Stripe or Square is charged on top at their standard rates. There are no setup fees and no monthly contracts, so spend scales directly with paid ticket volume plus payment processing.
