In bonus ticketing news, **Eventbrite** and **Crowdsponsor** are joining forces to ease the process of matching sponsors and events. **Tikly Says: "It's your show, they're your tickets."** [Tikly's](http://www.tikly.co/?ref=hypebot.com) subtitle resonates with [String Cheese Incident manager Mike Luba's statement](http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/16/arts/music/string-cheese-incident-takes-on-ticketmaster.html?%5Fr=2&ref=hypebot.com), "I would argue that on some level they are our tickets." That's probably because [Tikly founder Emma Peterson](http://thenextweb.com/insider/2012/05/17/tikly-and-its-22-year-old-ceo-are-turning-music-ticketing-on-its-head/?ref=hypebot.com) "believes that 'at some level, all these tickets belong to the band.'" Tikly is focusing on low charges for reliable ticketing services based on Peterson's own frustration as manager of a band. [Launched](http://www.tikly.co/about-us.php?ref=hypebot.com) in May 2011, Tikly charges begin at $1.00 with an average 10% fee for all tickets. Tikly covers the transaction fees for tickets under $100.
