Zoom's OnZoom service lets you host, monetize online events

Zoom is looking to capitalize on the trend of online classes and workshops hosted on its app with a new service it's beta testing. OnZoom will allow paid Zoom users to host and monetize the online events they hold. It works similar to apps like Eventbrite and Meetup. If you're an attendee, you can look up workshops, classes, and events to check out. You pay via credit card or PayPal directly to Zoom, and you have the option to gift tickets to others.

Zoom says it won't take a cut from the ticket sales while the service is in beta, which the company expects to run at least until the end of the year.
