ENTRY AND EVENTBRITE

An Eventbrite alternative with no booking fee

Eventbrite charges 6.95% + 59p on each paid ticket in the UK, which buyers pay by default, and adds 20% VAT to that fee if you haven't given it a VAT number. On a £20 ticket that's £1.98 before VAT. You're paid 3 business days after the event ends.

Entry takes nothing on tickets sold through your own Stripe or SumUp. You pay only the card fee, and the money reaches your account when the guest pays.

Card fees use Stripe's standard UK card rate, 1.5% + 20p. Eventbrite adds 20% VAT to its fee unless you give it a VAT number. Super Basic isn't VAT registered, so our prices are the full price.
