Other engines not included. ## The answer, as recorded Asked on 2026-10-23 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5). > # Best ticketing platforms for event organisers > > The honest answer is that the "best" one depends mostly on one question: **do you need the platform to find your audience, or do you already have one?** If you need discovery, you pay a percentage. If you have your own list, you should refuse to. > > Here's the order I'd actually recommend: > > **1. Ticket Tailor - the default for most independent organisers.** Flat fee per ticket (around $0.26, or monthly plans from ~$19/mo), no percentage cut, and money goes straight into your own Stripe/PayPal account rather than being held and paid out later. The cost gap is not subtle: a 500-ticket event at $40 works out to roughly $1,030 all-in versus about $2,215 on Eventbrite. If you have your own mailing list or social following, start here. > > **2. Tito (ti.to) - best for conferences and professional events.** 3% per paid ticket capped at €25, free events cost nothing, no setup or monthly fee. The cap matters a lot if you sell £300+ tickets. Clean checkout, good discount/release logic, strong API, and charities can get 2.5% (or 1% / free for at-cost and pure-fundraiser events). It's the one I'd pick for a paid tech or industry conference. > > **3.
