## Shortlist

### 1. Posh

Social event platform with organizer dashboard, all-in ticket pricing and a consumer discovery app.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — The buyer pays Posh's fees on top of the base price, since the organizer's take-home is the ticket price plus any custom fees; an organizer who wants to pay the fee themselves out of the ticket price lowers the base price until the display price hits the target.](https://support.posh.vip/en/articles/15089963-creating-customizing-and-managing-your-posh-events-the-complete-guide)
- [Sales tax on tickets: partial — adds a tax line that you set: Posh explicitly does not calculate or collect local sales tax, and directs organizers to build tax into the upfront price with a percentage or dollar custom fee audited through the export.](https://support.posh.vip/en/articles/15076421-checkout-settings-customize-the-attendee-s-experience)
- [When you get the money: yes — Money is not held until after the event: sales clear to an available balance in 24 to 48 business hours, standard ACH payouts are free and take 3 to 5 business days, and an instant payout costs a flat 5%.](https://support.posh.vip/en/articles/15090213-managing-your-balance-payouts-bank-accounts)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [Fees on refunds: partial — On an ordinary organizer-issued refund Posh keeps its own fee while custom fees and sales tax go back to the buyer, so the organizer loses the platform cut; fees are only returned when Posh approves a full event refund.](https://support.posh.vip/en/articles/10723777-how-to-request-ticket-refunds)
- [Reserved seating: partial — Buyers pick a specific table or booth from an interactive floor-plan map rather than an individual seat, the map image has to be emailed to Posh support for upload, and each booking yields one QR code for the whole table.](https://support.posh.vip/en/articles/15255266-offering-table-service-creating-your-seating-map)

### 2. TicketSpice

Flat 99¢-per-ticket ticketing for events and attractions, with in-house payments and a box office app.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — The organizer chooses: pay the fees themselves out of the ticket price, or pass them to buyers, and any extra convenience fee the organizer adds is kept in full.](https://www.ticketspice.com/pricing)
- [Card processing: yes — Card processing is separate from and on top of the per-ticket fee, run by in-house Webconnex Payments at 2.9% plus 30 cents per transaction.](https://www.ticketspice.com/pricing)
- [Donations and tips: yes — Buyers can add a donation to an order with a donation field, or give without attending through a donation ticket level; the field carries no platform fee while a donation ticket level pays the 99¢ per ticket fee, and checkout can ask donors to cover the processing fee rather than tipping the platform.](https://help.ticketspice.com/en/articles/2829765)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [All-in price at checkout: partial — It depends on how the organizer configures the page: the vendor warns that its separate line item fee often breaks the FTC all-in rule and recommends absorbing fees or using the pass-on setting instead.](https://help.ticketspice.com/en/articles/9299044)
- [Fees on refunds: partial — Fees come back only on a full refund processed through Webconnex Payments; on partial refunds, custom processors and offline orders the organizer eats them.](https://help.ticketspice.com/en/articles/5539462)
- [Support on event day: partial — Chat, email, phone and Zoom are offered free on every account, but staffed hours are 8am to 5pm Pacific on weekdays with only limited weekend cover.](https://www.ticketspice.com/support)

### 3. Ticket Tailor

Flat per-ticket fee ticketing paid into your own Stripe, PayPal or Square account.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — The organizer chooses: pay the fee yourself out of the ticket price, or add a booking fee per ticket and/or a transaction fee per order so buyers cover it and you keep the full ticket price.](https://www.tickettailor.com/en-us/pricing)
- [Card processing: yes — You connect your own Stripe, PayPal or Square account and that processor's fee is charged on top of Ticket Tailor's per-ticket fee, which the vendor states it never touches; it prints 2.9% + $0.30 as an example US Stripe rate but labels those figures illustrative rather than its own.](https://www.tickettailor.com/en-us/pricing)
- [Donations and tips: yes — Buyers can add a donation on top of their order once at least one ticket type exists, and Ticket Tailor charges no fee on donations although the payment processor does; the pages say nothing about asking buyers to tip the platform itself.](https://help.tickettailor.com/en/articles/950984-how-to-accept-donations-for-your-event)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [Fees on refunds: no — Refunding or canceling a ticket does not return the platform fee or the credit to the organizer, so the organizer absorbs it; transferring an order instead avoids a second charge.](https://help.tickettailor.com/en/articles/6731528-how-much-does-ticket-tailor-cost-and-how-will-i-be-charged)
- [Disputed charges: partial — The organizer bears disputes entirely: because payments go direct to the organizer's processor, Ticket Tailor says it cannot influence the outcome and only supplies evidence such as check-in reports; no dispute fee of its own is stated.](https://help.tickettailor.com/en/articles/9630490-what-can-i-do-if-a-ticket-buyer-starts-a-payment-dispute-or-chargeback-after-attending-my-event)
- [Ad tracking: partial — Meta pixel plus Conversions API, TikTok pixel and GA4 are supported, but the vendor requires a custom domain on the box office first, and that is a separately billed add-on unless you take white label.](https://help.tickettailor.com/en/articles/5560643-can-i-use-a-meta-tracking-pixel)

### 4. Eventbrite

Ticketing platform with a buyer-discovery marketplace and optional fee transfer.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — Buyers pay ticketing fees by default, while organizers can include them in ticket revenue.](https://www.eventbrite.com/help/en-us/articles/755615/how-much-does-it-cost-for-organizers-to-use-eventbrite/)
- [Card processing: yes — Eventbrite Payment Processing is the default online processor; United States processing is 2.9% per order.](https://www.eventbrite.com/help/en-us/articles/755615/how-much-does-it-cost-for-organizers-to-use-eventbrite/)
- [Donations and tips: yes — Donation tickets let buyers set the amount; United States donations have no service fee and 2.9% processing.](https://www.eventbrite.com/help/en-us/articles/460357/how-to-fundraise-and-collect-donations-with-eventbrite/)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [All-in price at checkout: partial — Fees can be included in a chosen ticket price or added above it, so display depends on organizer settings.](https://www.eventbrite.com/help/en-us/articles/755615/how-much-does-it-cost-for-organizers-to-use-eventbrite/)
- [Fees on refunds: partial — Ticketing fees stay with Eventbrite by default, but organizers can pay them from their payout.](https://www.eventbrite.com/help/en-us/articles/158301/how-to-refund-an-order/)
- [Check-in app: partial — The Organizer app scans QR tickets on iOS and Android; the reviewed source does not document offline scanning.](https://www.eventbrite.com/organizer/features/organizer-check-in-app/)

### 5. Humanitix

Nonprofit ticketing: 5% + $1.29 a paid ticket, card processing included, profits to charity.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — Buyers are charged the fee on top of the ticket by default, and you can instead pay it yourself out of the ticket price, split it, or let buyers choose.](https://help.humanitix.com/en/articles/12292391-what-are-the-humanitix-booking-fees)
- [Card processing: yes — Humanitix handles the card payment itself on US dollar events and the cost sits inside its 5% + $1.29 fee; connecting Stripe instead means Stripe bills you separately.](https://help.humanitix.com/en/articles/9760527-how-much-does-humanitix-cost)
- [Donations and tips: yes — Buyers can add a donation at checkout or give on a standalone donation page, and each donation carries the lower nonprofit rate; buyers can also be offered the chance to cover the booking fee.](https://help.humanitix.com/en/articles/8914022-why-are-there-booking-fees-for-donations)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [All-in price at checkout: partial — Prices buyers see are inclusive of fees, but they are printed as the ticket price followed by the fee, and events where the host pays the fee show no fee at all.](https://help.humanitix.com/en/articles/9653327-changes-to-how-ticket-prices-and-booking-fees-are-displayed)
- [Fees on refunds: no — When a ticket is refunded the buyer gets the ticket price back but Humanitix keeps its booking fee, so whoever paid that fee loses it.](https://help.humanitix.com/en/articles/13454109-my-refund-was-smaller-than-expected)
- [Refund protection at checkout: partial — offered, off by default: Xcover provides it, buyers choose and pay for it at checkout, and a host must ask Humanitix support to switch it on.](https://help.humanitix.com/en/articles/9187932-enable-refund-protection-on-ticket-purchases)

### 6. Etix

Venue-focused primary ticketing with box office, scanning, patron data and marketing, sold by quote.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [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.](https://etix.com/ticket/online3/purchase-policy.jsp)
- [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)
- [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.](https://hello.etix.com/clients/mobile)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [Fees on refunds: partial — 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.](https://etix.com/ticket/online3/purchase-policy.jsp)
- [Sign up without a sales call: partial — The core Etix platform is sales-led: every page ends in a demo request or a call to corporate sales, while the TutuTix dance line advertises self-service account setup in minutes.](https://hello.etix.com/schedule-demo)

### 7. Tixr

Enterprise live-event ticketing and commerce platform with quote-only fees.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — The organizer decides how fees are presented to fans, and the fan help center confirms the organizer sets service and delivery fees, so passing them on or absorbing them is the organizer's call.](https://creators.tixr.com/products/platform)
- [Card processing: yes — Card processing runs through Stripe, and the organizer can either connect its own Stripe account for direct settlement or use Tixr's processing; neither the rate nor whether it sits inside the service fee is published.](https://creators.tixr.com/products/studio)
- [When you get the money: yes — An organizer can connect its own Stripe account so proceeds settle directly to it, or use Tixr's managed payouts instead; the site gives no payout schedule, hold period or payout fee.](https://creators.tixr.com/products/studio)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [Sign up without a sales call: partial — A self-serve tier exists for smaller organizers, but every call to action on the site is "Get a demo" or the contact form and the self-serve tier has no published sign-up route or price.](https://creators.tixr.com/products/platform)
- [Support on event day: partial — Every client reaches the support team seven days a week and a dedicated Client Experience Manager comes with all tiers except self-service; no phone number, chat channel or published hours appear on the site.](https://creators.tixr.com/products/studio)

[View Tixr](https://boxofficefees.com/tixr)

### 8. Ticketmaster

Enterprise ticketing for venues, teams and promoters, sold through its own marketplace.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — Buyers pay the fees on top of the ticket price the organizer sets: the upfront price a fan sees is the ticket price plus all required fees, and the organizing parties share the service fee rather than absorbing it.](https://help.ticketmaster.com/hc/en-us/articles/9663528775313-How-are-ticket-prices-and-fees-determined)
- [Sales tax on tickets: yes — adds a tax line: applicable city, state and local taxes are calculated automatically from the event's location and added at checkout, and in some states the tax is folded into the upfront price; remittance is not described.](https://help.ticketmaster.com/hc/en-us/articles/9663528775313-How-are-ticket-prices-and-fees-determined)
- [Sell on your own website: yes — Embedded checkout lets organizers take the purchase on their own site so fans stay in their brand, and it supports quick pay methods such as Apple Pay and Google Pay.](https://business.ticketmaster.com/self-serve-event-ticketing-solutions-for-live-events/)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [Check-in app: partial — Entry runs on SafeTix encrypted rotating barcodes with real-time ingress monitoring, but scanning uses Ticketmaster hardware and partner access-control providers rather than a published free scanner app, and offline operation is not described.](https://business.ticketmaster.com/solutions/event-day/)
- [Promoter links: partial — Promoters are brought into the shared TM1 workspace with permissions and audit visibility, and came-from codes attribute sales to a source, but Ticketmaster documents no affiliate link product giving an outside seller its own sales dashboard.](https://business.ticketmaster.com/solutions/event-creation-management/)
- [Sign up without a sales call: partial — Once you are a client, event build and marketing are genuinely self-serve in the browser and an event can publish in minutes, but you cannot sign up and sell today: access to TM1 starts with a 'Work with us' inquiry handled by an account team.](https://business.ticketmaster.com/work-with-us/)

### 9. TicketLeap

Per-ticket event ticketing with no plans or contracts, $1 + 2% plus a 3% transaction fee.

**Where it improves on Tickeri:**
- [Who pays the fees: yes — You choose per event: buyers pay the ticketing and transaction fees on top by default, or you switch the event to 'Paid by Me' and pay the fee yourself, out of the ticket price, with the one exception that the 3% on door sales must be paid by the organizer.](https://support.ticketleap.com/en_US/fees-payments/how-do-i-change-who-pays-the-fees)
- [Card processing: yes — TicketLeap processes cards itself through Stripe rather than a third-party merchant account, and the card cost shows up as its own 3% transaction fee charged per order on top of the per-ticket ticketing fee.](https://www.ticketleap.com/info/pricing/)
- [Donations and tips: yes — Buyers can give through a 'name your own price' donation ticket type, a donation-only event, or a non-ticketed donation added to an order that already contains a paid ticket; buyer-paid ticketing fees apply to donation ticket types.](https://support.ticketleap.com/en_US/customizing-enhancing-event-pages/how-do-i-create-donations-for-my-event)

**Trade-offs against Tickeri:**
- [All-in price at checkout: no — By default the ticketing fee and the 3% transaction fee are added to the ticket price the buyer first sees, so the opening price is not all-in; the organizer can instead choose Paid by Me per event, which folds the fee into the ticket price.](https://support.ticketleap.com/en_US/fees-payments/how-do-i-change-who-pays-the-fees)
- [Fees on refunds: partial — The features page says a full or partial refund costs nobody a fee, but the ticketing services agreement reserves an additional refund processing fee, so the vendor's own pages do not agree on whether refunds are fee-free.](https://www.ticketleap.com/info/features/)
- [When you get the money: no — Money is held until after the event: payouts reach the organizer's bank by direct deposit 4-6 business days after the event ends, 5-7 for Canadian sellers, and multi-day events pay out per event date; no payout fee is stated.](https://support.ticketleap.com/en_US/fees-payments/when-do-i-get-paid)
