How Ludus Compares
Ludus vs. Cur8
Cur8 users come to Ludus after facing clunky checkouts, confusing credits, and limited tools that slow them down. Ludus is the platform that fixes what they couldn’t.
3 reasons organizations choose Ludus
💡 9 out of 10 organizations that demo Ludus after using Cur8 switch to Ludus.
1. Clunky, frustrating patron experience.
- Since Cur8’s rebrand, usability has gone backward. The system has become even harder for patrons and users to navigate. Confusing "credits," a frustrating checkout experience, and poor overall usability create friction for your patrons and headaches for your team.
- Ludus offers a simple, intuitive patron experience from start to finish. No confusion. No friction. Just fast, human support with responses in less than 3 minutes via chat, email, or phone.


2. True customization & branded experiences.
- Cur8 pages look like Cur8, not your organization. Ludus offers fully customizable event pages, integrated widgets, and powerful branding tools: your events, your branding, your way.
- Ludus is designed to scale as your organization grows—no limitations.
3. Immediate payouts & complete financial control.
- Cur8 holds 5% of your funds for up to 60 days. Ludus never holds your money. We offer daily payouts and immediate access to your funds.
- Ludus also includes robust tools that Cur8 lacks, including invoicing, volunteer management, concessions, donor tracking, and advanced marketing campaigns.
