## What we checked on Etix

### What the fees come to

**The fee per ticket** · Partly — A per-ticket convenience fee plus possible delivery fees is the published structure, but Etix states no percentage, fixed amount, minimum or cap anywhere on its own sites.

> A convenience fee (service charge) is assessed for each ticket purchased for the ease of purchasing tickets remotely. Delivery fees may also apply.
> — https://etix.com/ticket/online3/purchase-policy.jsp · Master Purchase Policy, 'Convenience Charges' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Who pays the fees** · Yes — The convenience fee is assessed on the ticket buyer at purchase, so by default fees sit on top of the ticket price rather than coming out of the organizer's price.

> A convenience fee (service charge) is assessed for each ticket purchased for the ease of purchasing tickets remotely.
> — https://etix.com/ticket/online3/purchase-policy.jsp · Master Purchase Policy, 'Convenience Charges' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Card processing** · Partly — Etix runs card payments through its own processors, but says clients may instead connect their own payment processor; no processing rate or who bears it is published.

> Etix processors accept all major credit cards, however some of our clients may choose to utilize their own payment processor when selling their tickets through Etix.com
> — https://support.etix.com/purchasing-tickets/etix-says-sorry-this-card-is-not-accepted-when-i-try-to-purchase-what-can-i-do · Article body, first paragraph, checked 27 October 2026

**Fees on refunds** · Partly — On a canceled performance Etix returns the ticket price and the per-ticket convenience charge to the buyer, but keeps the per-order delivery handling charge.

> Refunds for canceled performances include the ticket price and the per ticket convenience charge(s), unless otherwise stated in the applicable venue, event organizer, or ticketing provider’s refund policy disclosed at the time of purchase. Refunds do not include the per order handling charge for a chosen delivery option.
> — https://etix.com/ticket/online3/purchase-policy.jsp · Master Purchase Policy, 'Refunds and Exchanges' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Donations and tips** · Yes — Organizers can take donations at checkout alongside tickets and memberships, and buyers may set a donation recurring; nothing says checkout asks buyers to tip Etix itself.

> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/donations-memberships · 'PURCHASE, RENEW, & DONATE ONLINE' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Refund protection at checkout** · Yes — offered, off by default: Allianz Partners ticket insurance is an opt-in third-party add-on the buyer pays for at checkout, and Etix cannot refund it.

> Ticket insurance is a 3rd party purchase offered during your check-out. Customers who opt in for this 3rd party ticket insurance option are charged separately by Allianz Partners (insurance provider)
> — https://support.etix.com/purchasing-tickets/what-is-allianz-ticket-insurance · Article body, first paragraph, checked 27 October 2026

### Getting paid

**When you get the money** · Partly — For the TutuTix dance line Etix publishes weekly direct deposit of the prior week's sales; for the core Etix platform no payout schedule or payout fee is published.

> Tututix is proud to offer the friendliest recital ticketing payout approach on the planet. Each week, we direct deposit the previous week’s sales into your bank account.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/dance-studios · 'REPORTING AND PAYMENT IN DAYS, NOT MONTHS' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Your buyers’ details** · Yes — Etix says the organizer owns its ticket-buyer data outright, and the Etix Community CRM lets you sort buyers and export them into your own email campaigns.

> Unlike some ticketing companies, with Etix, your data is 100% owned by you and will only be used to sell tickets to your events.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/music-venues · 'FAN DATA TO BETTER UNDERSTAND YOUR AUDIENCE' section, checked 27 October 2026

### Selling the tickets

**Ticket types and discounts** · Yes — Full-season and custom packages, group sales, discount offers and price codes are supported, and buyers can enter a promo code at checkout to unlock a price.

> Create full-season packages or custom packages where your patrons can choose which specific events they would like to attend. We also make setting up group sales and discount offers — online or through the box office — simple and fast.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/ticketing · 'ROBUST OPTIONS FOR SEASON TICKETS, PACKAGES, & GROUPS' section, checked 27 October 2026

> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/ticketing · 'CREATE A DETAILED, SELECT-A-SEAT EXPERIENCE WITH SEATSUITE' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Questions at checkout** · Yes — Orders carry per-ticket custom information fields such as attendee names and meal choices, which buyers can even edit later from the confirmation email.

> — https://support.etix.com/existing-orders/how-do-i-add-names-of-the-passengers-on-my-polar-express-train-ride · Article body, first paragraph, checked 27 October 2026

**Timed entry** · Yes — Timed entry ticket options cap how many visitors may enter within a given time period, and the support center documents the buyer-side timed entry pass flow.

> Our timed entry ticket options allow you to control the number of visitors within a certain time period.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/ticketing · 'MAINTAIN YOUR TRAFFIC FLOW WITH TIMED ENTRY' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Add-ons** · Yes — Upsells at checkout cover parking, early entry and VIP areas, and parking passes can also be sold and validated from a handheld device at the gate.

> Tailored performance recommendations and upsell options — like parking, early entry, and VIP areas — create a better experience for your customers while adding incremental revenue to your bottom line.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/ticketing · 'PROMOTIONS, UPSELLS, & RECOMMENDATIONS' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Recurring events** · Yes — A past performance can be copied rather than rebuilt and season or custom packages sell a series in one purchase, though no automatic recurring schedule generator is described.

> That’s why we’ve designed our Performance Builder to quickly create reserved seat and general admission performances from scratch, or you can simply copy a past performance to save time.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/ticketing · 'CREATE EVENTS IN MINUTES' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Refunds and transfers by buyers** · Partly — Buyers can transfer or forward their own tickets through Etix Wallet and Account Manager, but self-service refunds do not exist: all sales are final bar a cancellation.

> — https://etix.com/ticket/online3/purchase-policy.jsp · Master Purchase Policy, 'Ticket Transfers and Forwards' section, checked 27 October 2026

### At the door

**Check-in app** · Yes — The Etix Scanner app validates barcodes and QR codes on staff-owned iOS and Android phones; Etix does not say whether it scans offline, as all scans sync to its system.

> The Etix Scanner app uses the camera on your iOS or Android device to scan in customers alongside our other scanning devices. All scans are synchronized with the Etix ticketing system to prevent duplicate and invalid tickets.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/mobile · 'SCAN & VALIDATE TICKETS ANYWHERE' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Door sales** · Yes — Etix Sell opens a box office on a tablet or desktop and the integrated parking app takes cash or card at the gate, but no door-sale fee is published.

> Integrated with the Etix Box Office platform, our parking app can process cash or credit card payments, and can be used with an optional bluetooth printer to provide receipts on demand.
> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/mobile · 'PARKING? NO PROBLEM.' section, checked 27 October 2026

**Apple Wallet** · Yes — Each mobile ticket shows an Add to Apple Wallet icon that iPhone buyers tap per ticket, and the Etix Wallet app also pushes tickets into the native wallet.

> Ticket purchasers using an iPhone can save their purchased tickets to their Apple Wallet passbook to be accessed at a later date.
> — https://support.etix.com/existing-orders/using-apple-wallet-to-store-tickets · Article body, 'Overview', checked 27 October 2026

**Google Wallet** · Yes — The Etix Wallet app lets buyers move tickets into the device's native wallet, naming Google Wallet, so tickets open without WiFi or cell service.

### What it connects to and where it is sold

**Works with** · Yes — The open API shares seat inventory, membership and order data with third-party tools, and Etix cites email marketing, loyalty and food-and-beverage links; no named Mailchimp or Zapier connector is published.

> — https://hello.etix.com/clients/integrations-partnerships · 'CONNECT WITH ETIX API' section, checked 27 October 2026
