The answer, as recorded
Here's how I'd actually rank them, since "best" depends a lot on whether you need an audience or just a checkout. **1. Eventbrite** - the default first recommendation for most organisers, because it's the only one that brings you buyers. Its marketplace and email list surface your event to people who weren't looking for it, which matters enormously for a first-time or public-facing event. You pay for that reach: roughly 3.7% + $1.79 per ticket plus ~2.9% processing, so ~12% on a $30 ticket. Worth it if discovery is your bottleneck, bad value if you already have the audience. **2. Ticket Tailor** - what I'd recommend the moment you have your own mailing list or social following. Flat ~$0.85 per ticket (down to ~$0.30 on prepaid credits), free for most free events, and you keep your own branding. On 200 tickets that's roughly $170 vs ~$580 on Eventbrite. No built-in discovery at all - you have to drive the traffic. **3. DICE** - the one to use for gigs, club nights, and festivals. All-in pricing shown to fans (~13% per ticket, processing included), a genuinely good consumer discovery app with Spotify/Apple Music-based recommendations, and a waitlist system that curbs scalping. Caveat: onboarding is invite-gated, so you apply rather than sign up, and it's been owned by Fever since 2025. **4. Humanitix** - my pick for charity, school, and community events. Fees (~2.1% + $0.99) are competitive and 100% of profit from booking fees goes to children's education and health causes, which is a real selling point in your event copy. Downside: payout usually lands after the event, so it's poor for events where you need ticket revenue to fund the event itself. **5. Tito** - best for tech and B2B conferences, or anyone who wants ticketing to feel like part of their own site. Clean embeddable widget, solid API and webhooks, ~3% per ticket, and money goes straight into your own Stripe or PayPal, so cashflow is immediate. It assumes a bit of technical comfort and gives you no marketplace. **6. TicketSpice** - worth a look if your flow is unusual: multi-day passes, timed entry, add-ons, waivers, complex upsells. Highly customisable forms at a low per-ticket fee, at the cost of more setup work than the others. **7. Ticketmaster / Tixr** - only relevant at venue or tour scale, where reserved seating, resale infrastructure, and high-concurrency onsales genuinely matter. Overkill and over-committing for anything smaller. Short version: use Eventbrite if you need an audience, Ticket Tailor if you have one, DICE if it's live music, Humanitix if it's charitable, Tito if it's a conference.
