Your HelloAsso events, memberships and donations now show up in your app

The short version. HelloAsso Events and HelloAsso Campaigns are two extensions of GoodBarber, the no-code app builder, that read an association's public forms on HelloAsso. HelloAsso Events fills a Calendar section with upcoming events, with their date, venue and prices, and a button to register in the app. HelloAsso Campaigns fills an Article section with memberships, donation forms and fundraisers: memberships open in the app, donations open in the phone's browser. You connect them with your association's HelloAsso API credentials. Both are free for Content apps: each section counts as one of the extensions included in your plan.HelloAsso is where many French associations already sell their tickets and collect their memberships. In February 2025, it passed two billion euros collected for associations since 2009, half of it in the previous 18 months, and it counts 376,000 registered associations, according to Le Journal des Entreprises on March 6, 2025.
