What is Climaider?
Ticketbutler has partnered up with Climaider to reduce the CO2 footprint in the event industry by offering all ticket buyers the opportunity to carbon offset their emissions when buying a ticket(s) to any event created using the Ticketbutler ticketing software.
How big is the donation amount?
The amount is a fixed DKK 5 regardless of the ticket price, and Ticketbutler does not profit from the collaboration.
When a ticket buyer chooses to donate DKK 5/ticket, they are supporting climate projects that will reduce 40 kg CO2. That means that for every donation, a guest approximately covers the carbon footprint of 4 guests in total.
How was this amount calculated?
Climaider has calculated the average price per participating guest of DKK 5 by looking at the CO2 emissions of 39 different Ticketbutler events, a third of which were outdoor events.
The analysis covers energy, heating, transport, and general catering-related emissions.
Ticketbutler does not gather information on the guests' transport to and from events, so the number is an estimate opposite to the other data that is based on averages.

What exactly does this entail for me as a Ticketbutler user?
Nothing, in essence, as the service is completely free of charge for you. Nothing will be deducted from your ticket sales. Instead, you can pat yourself on the back for making a positive difference for the environment!
What does it entail for my ticket buyers?
Carbon offsetting is voluntary. The option is presented to the ticket buyer in the ticket purchase flow as a check box that has to be actively checked in order to offset one’s participation.
A few days after their purchase, the ticket buyer will receive an email confirming their climate compensation. The email will contain more information about Climaider, as well as which projects their donation will contribute to.
Why is Ticketbutler introducing this feature?
We have chosen to initiate this collaboration with Climaider because we feel obliged to contribute to pushing the industry in a greener direction. To do this, we need your help. No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.
Ticketbutler does not profit from your CO2 offsetting. Our sole goal is to contribute positively to the climate with you.

Would you like to opt out?
We naturally hope that you’re just as excited about the Climaider project as we are.
However, if you prefer to have the option to carbon offset removed from the purchase flow, please let us know via email to hello@ticketbutler.io.
