Why organisers switch to tickts
Your fans pay less
Whether you absorb it or pass it on, someone pays. On tickts, nobody pays platform fees.
Paid direct to your account
TicketSource holds your money until after your event ends, then pays out the following week. With tickts, payments go straight to your own account the moment a ticket is sold.
You control the money
With tickts, you connect your own Stripe or PayPal account. The money is yours from the moment a fan buys a ticket. No platform sitting on your cash flow until the show is over.
Save more as you grow
The more successful your events, the more you lose. tickts charges zero platform fees at every scale.
Optional refund protection for fans
At checkout your fans can add TicketPlan refund protection and claim the ticket price back if they cannot attend for a covered reason. It is optional, never pre-ticked, and the premium never touches your payout.
