eBridge
Bring all your event financial data into your AMS
Your annual conference is one of your association's biggest revenue generators. But if you're using a third-party event platform like eShow, A2Z, Cvent, or another event management system, there's a good chance your financial data lives outside of your association management system (AMS).
Most integrations only tell your AMS that someone registered. They don't transfer the financial transactions behind those registrations.
When revenue data is spread across multiple systems, reporting and month-end close become more complicated, and staff spend more time pulling information together instead of analyzing it.
Introducing eBridge
eBridge automatically brings event financial data into your AMS on a schedule you define, giving you a more complete financial picture of your events.
Why associations choose eBridge
With all your event financials available in your AMS, you can:
- Create more complete financial reports without pulling data from multiple systems
- Simplify month-end reconciliation
- Reduce manual imports and data entry
- Give finance and event teams access to the same information
- Make faster, better-informed business decisions
Instead of managing data in multiple places, you have one system of record for your event financials.
How eBridge works
eBridge acts as a secure web service between your event platform and AMS.
Depending on your event software, data is either sent directly to eBridge or retrieved through an API integration.
Transactions are then transferred to your AMS on the schedule you choose. For many associations, daily updates are ideal, but updates can run more frequently if needed.
eBridge supports common event activities including:
- New registrations
- Registration updates
- Payments
- Cancellations
The result is a reliable, automated process that keeps your financial data synchronized without requiring manual work from your staff.
The platform already supports integrations with leading event systems, including A2Z, eShow, Bravura, and Cvent. Its flexible architecture makes it possible to build additional integrations as needed.
Proven in the real world
When the Texas Association of School Business Officials (TASBO) moved to iMIS® EMS, they lost the integration that had previously synchronized their event financials.
Without it, financial information was split between systems, reporting became more difficult, and staff had to rely on manual processes to keep records up to date.
ISG Solutions used eBridge for iMIS EMS to restore automated synchronization while expanding the platform to support additional event systems. Today, TASBO automatically synchronizes vendor financial data into iMIS, reducing manual work and giving the organization a complete view of event revenue for its conferences.

Simple pricing
eBridge is available as an annual subscription.
Depending on your event platform, there may be a one-time implementation fee to build an API integration. Once configured, eBridge runs automatically in the background, keeping your event financial data flowing into your AMS.
