Fix Wix Events feature comparison for accuracy
- Move discount/promo codes from shared to Wix-only (Chobble doesn't have them) - Remove misleading "event discovery on Wix" claim (no marketplace, just your own site) - Clarify waitlists are RSVP-only, not available for ticketed events - Note Wix has Apple Wallet but NOT Google Wallet natively (needs third-party) - Add embeddable widget as Chobble advantage (Wix Events is Wix-site-only) - Clarify Wix API/webhooks require building a custom Wix app - Add Apple Pay/Google Pay and refund processing to shared features - Add more Wix help center sources for verification https://claude.ai/code/session_01WwiJKtihkfWBc8MoF2MTAs
