RedBalloon alternative



RedBalloon and ClassBento have many similarities. Both of us are nationwide marketplace platforms offering experiences for couples, families and corporate clients, and both of us have an extensive database of customers.

Compared to RedBalloon, some of the benefits of coming on board with ClassBento are:

  • Vastly superior team support throughout the entire booking process. We pride ourselves on not just focusing on our clients, but also on our artists. Unlike RedBalloon, we don’t just want your classes to grow, we want your business to grow! That’s why we list your classes alongside your business, so potential customers have an opportunity to see who’ll be teaching them before they book, and feel closer to you as a result. We don’t want you to be just another faceless supplier, we want your brand identity to shine through!

  • A stronger focus on mental wellbeing. This means that the experiences we choose to offer aren’t swamped in a miscellaneous sea of gift vouchers and hot air balloon rides. They’re handpicked to ensure that the artists and teachers we work with align with our brand ethos and message. Our customers - corporate or otherwise - engage with us for this reason, meaning that instead of joining a list of holiday experiences, you’re coming on board with a team that has an audience that not only trusts the service but trusts the people behind them. By doing this, we’ve cultivated a brand loyalty that other marketplace platforms simply don’t have.

  • Repeat corporate clients. As mentioned above, the trust we have with so many of our clients means that repeat business isn’t just common, it’s expected. With clients such as Google, Spotify and Samsung running multiple team building workshops through us, your workshops have the potential to reach thousands of people and build lasting business relationships with a larger audience.

  • Reliable assistance. Our focus on our artists guarantees you help every step of the way. Whether that’s setting up your classes, troubleshooting booking issues or even changing what you offer, we’re here to work with you to make sure your business flourishes in every aspect.

  • We donate to Dementia Australia with every booking.

ClassBento specialises only in listing high-quality classes, experiences and kits, and we love supporting the talented local artisans in our communities. We're a proudly Australian company and our mission is to empower artists to improve mental wellbeing through creative workshops; we donate to Dementia Australia with every booking made through our curated marketplace, classbento.com.au

We also provide a best-in-class booking solution that you can use on your own website, via our widget, which hundreds of teachers are already using.

We'd love to learn more about you and how we can make your life better. Let's partner up!


Until the end of May 2024, migrate from RedBalloon to ClassBento, let us know, and we'll power the first 30 days of your bookings (via our widget) for free!
