Tangents figures are exact: this uses the same fee code the checkout charges. Third-party figures are those platforms’ own published rates as of August 2026. Plots publishes a banded table; values between their published rows are interpolated and marked with ~. Verify current rates before relying on any of this for a quote.

Ours is 2.75% plus card processing, added on top of your price so you keep what you set. Theirs is 3.7% + $1.79 service fee, plus 2.9% payment processing, verified 2026-08-19. Both columns are one ticket — buying two at once costs your buyer less per ticket with us.
What you get
- Paid out to your bank
- Stripe Connect pays you directly. Not a balance we hold: your money lands in your account.
- QR check-in at the door
- Every ticket is a scannable QR. No printed list, no name-at-the-door bottleneck.
- You keep your audience
- Followers, your link, your posts. We are the checkout, not the middleman between you and your crowd.
- Free and paid events
- RSVP events cost nothing to run. Same check-in flow either way.
- Refunds and cancellations
- Cancel an event and every attendee is refunded automatically, with the notice sent for you.
- Upgrade when it's worth it
- Free is already cheaper than the alternatives — discounts, group offers and the door scanner are all included. $9.99/mo gets your buyers a lower fee and gets you paid 3 business days after the event instead of 5.
