Unite Worldwide is vendor-event management built around farmers markets: applications, booth payments, booth mapping, and automated vendor communications.
Unite gives every plan every feature, including booth mapping, and only varies the transaction fee: 5% free, 3% on Pro, 0% on Enterprise. That is a genuinely fair model, and for small recurring markets the free tier is hard to beat.
At festival scale the math flips. On $50,000 of vendor payments, Unite's free tier costs $2,500 in fees and Pro costs $2,700 all-in, while FestKit Spotlight is $1,549 with a flat 2%. Unite's own guidance says Enterprise ($3,720/yr) pays off above roughly $12K of vendor revenue per month, a volume most seasonal festivals never reach.
| Plan | Subscription | Fee on vendor payments |
|---|---|---|
| FestKit Spotlight | $549/yr per event | 2% |
| FestKit Showcase | $1,249/yr per event | 2% |
| Unite Pay as you Go | $0 | 5% per booking |
| Unite Pro | $120/mo, or $1,200/yr billed annually | 3% |
| Unite Enterprise | $350/mo, or $3,720/yr billed annually | 0% |
All Unite plans include the same features; the difference is the transaction fee. Card-processing fees apply on every plan.
A typical FestKit customer: a 100-vendor event collecting a $500 booth fee, or $50,000 in vendor payments per year. Card-processing fees (Stripe or equivalent) apply on every platform and are excluded on all rows.
