ENTRY AND TRYBOOKING

A TryBooking alternative for regular events

TryBooking is free for free events. For paid tickets it charges 5% + 20p a ticket, card fees and VAT included, and pays you after the event. Or it's 75p a ticket plus Stripe's own fees if you take the payments yourself.

With Entry and your own Stripe, a £20 ticket costs you 50p in card fees and nothing to Entry.

Card fees use Stripe's standard UK card rate, 1.5% + 20p. Super Basic isn't VAT registered, so our prices are the full price. TryBooking's details checked on 8 November 2026 from its own pages, listed at the bottom of this page. Prices change, so check before you choose.

QUESTIONS

TryBooking questions

How much does TryBooking charge on a £20 ticket?

£1.20, card fees and VAT included: 5% + 20p. Or 75p plus Stripe's fees if you take the payments yourself. With Entry on your own Stripe, it's Stripe's 50p and nothing to Entry.

When do I get paid with Entry?

When the guest pays, into your own Stripe or SumUp account. TryBooking pays after the event unless you use your own Stripe.

Does Entry charge a booking fee?

Not on your own Stripe or SumUp, on any plan. You pay only your provider's card fee. With Super Basic payments instead, it's 3% + 20p a booking on Basic and 1.5% + 20p on Super, with the card fee included.
