## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-29 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## What I'd actually recommend
> 
> **1. Eventbrite** - the default starting point, mainly for discovery. Its marketplace genuinely sends you buyers you didn't find yourself, which no other platform on this list does at scale. You pay for it: ~3.7% + $1.79 per ticket plus ~2.9% processing in the US, and roughly 6.95% + 59p in the UK. Good for first events, workshops, community stuff. Bad value once you have your own audience.
> 
> **2. Ticket Tailor** - the one I'd point most independent organisers to. Flat per-ticket fee instead of a percentage (from ~$0.26/ticket, or monthly plans), so your costs don't scale with ticket price. On a $100 ticket it's roughly half of Eventbrite's take. Payments go into your own Stripe/PayPal, and free events are free. No marketplace, so you bring your own traffic.
> 
> **3. Tito** - best for paid conferences and professional events. 3% per ticket but **capped** (around €25/ticket), which matters enormously if you're selling £300-£1,000 conference passes. Clean, developer-friendly, great buyer experience, free for free events.
> 
> **4. Humanitix** - if you want low fees and a story. Not-for-profit; ~2.1% + $0.99 per ticket with profits going to charity. Consistentl
