On TicketSpice, each $10 ticket carries a $0.99 service fee, paid by you or passed on to your buyers. Here the ticket carries no fee from us. This event is over 250 attendees, so we have included the attendee block it needs.
Run your own numbersPublished pricing, before card processing. TicketSpice's card processing, about 2.99% + 49 cents, is on top. On Ticket Committee, Stripe charges 2.9% + 30 cents per card charge. Our subscription is charged once a year, not per event.

Ticket sales
$6,250Ticket Committee is a flat $99 a year with no per-ticket fees. Up to $247.50 in platform fees on 250 tickets at $25.00 elsewhere. That is more than 2 years of Ticket Committee.
Published pricing. Card processing is estimated from each platform's published rates and charged on top of the service fee, including on Ticket Committee, where it runs through your own Stripe account. Actual processing may vary. Our subscription is charged once a year, not per event, and is counted in full against the one event shown here. Each event includes 250 attendees; a bigger event adds 250 more for $39.99. Silent auctions carry a separate fee of 1.2% of each winning bid, capped at $15 per item.
Schools, nonprofits, and community groups, where the person running the event is a parent or a volunteer. Flat pricing, a text to the parent when their child checks in or out, waivers, and a silent auction on the same subscription.
TicketSpice offers highly customizable ticketing pages at $0.99 per ticket. It is capable but DIY-leaning, with payments routed through its own processor and no built-in fundraising tools like silent auctions or raffles.
We would sooner tell you now than have you find out after you have built your page.

You run very large events
Our plan is sized for committees.Each event includes 250 attendees and grows in blocks of 250 for $39.99. A festival or a conference with thousands of guests is a different job.
You sell a few dozen tickets, once
Below about 100 tickets at $15, TicketSpice's fees come to less than $99.The flat price pays for itself when you run more than one event or sell more than a handful of tickets.
