Tiered Plans for Exhibitor Services Monetization
We’re excited to introduce a new tiered pricing model for exhibitor services: AEC Basic and AEC Pro. These tiers are designed to help organizers better monetize digital offerings while giving exhibitors clear upgrade paths and access to advanced features that drive real value.
💡 Why you’ll love it
Exhibitor value is often tied to digital visibility and lead capture capabilities. Until now, premium features like badge scanning and lead qualification were automatically included with no link to sponsorship level or spend.
With AEC Basic and AEC Pro, you can:
-
Package, sell, and scale digital exhibitor experiences in a structured way
-
Unlock new revenue opportunities tied directly to feature access
-
Give exhibitors clarity on exactly what’s included with their plan — and how they can upgrade
This ensures that sponsorship investment is directly connected to digital benefits, allowing you to maximize value for both organizers and exhibitors.
✅ What’s included:

Company Profiles | ✅ | ✅ |
Live Chat & Meeting Management | ✅ | ✅ |
