mTap vs Luma

Luma owns the moment before the door opens. mTap owns what happens after.

Hosting plus business-card identity, 90% enrichment, and a CRM bridge — at a per-ticket fee 10× lower.

TL;DR

Luma is great for getting people to an event (check-in QR, attendee discovery, beautiful event pages) and you leave with a CSV — no card identity, no enrichment, no CRM bridge. mTap hosts the event and turns every attendee into an enriched CRM contact with drafted follow-up. mTap is 0.5% + $0.30 per paid ticket; Luma is 5% (or Luma Plus at $59/mo flat).

The wedge, explained

Where mTap and Luma actually diverge

Does Luma have CRM integration?

Luma exports a CSV of attendees and connects to Zapier for downstream automation. It does not bridge attendees into your CRM as enriched contacts the way mTap does — the relationship ends at check-in.

Does Luma enrich contacts?

No. Luma captures what the attendee fills in at registration. mTap enriches every attendee — and every captured contact — to a full record at 90% accuracy.

Is mTap cheaper than Luma for paid tickets?

Yes, for almost every event size. Luma is 5% per paid ticket (or Luma Plus at $59/mo flat). mTap is 0.5% + $0.30. On a 200-person, $50 event, Luma takes ~$500 and mTap takes ~$70 — 80%+ lower.

What Luma does well

Luma's UX is genuinely beloved, the event pages are gorgeous, and its discovery feed is the best in the industry for getting strangers to show up. If your only goal is getting people through the door and you do not care about what happens after, Luma is hard to beat. The boundary is that it forgets the relationship the moment the event ends.
