How people buy
Buying several tickets in one order can reduce card payment fees. This estimate starts with one ticket per order.
At these numbers: 100 tickets across 100 orders a month.
Eventbrite
Source: Eventbrite pricing — verified 2026-08-30. US rate. UK is a different all-in structure (6.95% + £0.59, no separate processing fee) — not modelled here. Eventbrite STATES attendee-paid is its default; the organizer may choose to absorb the fee instead. Eventbrite calculates its processing fee on the total order including tax; this calculator has no tax input, so the figure here excludes that component and may be slightly low.
Prekindle
Source: Prekindle pricing — verified 2026-08-30. Standard published rate only. Volume (10,000+ tickets/year) and non-profit pricing are negotiated directly with Prekindle's sales team and are not published — never estimated here. The page does not state a default for who pays the fee; this calculator applies the same assumption as Eventbrite's stated default.
Card payment fees with Hespera
Hespera does not add a ticket fee. This estimate uses Stripe's standard rate for US cards. Use your provider's rate if it differs. Extra charges for international cards, currency conversion, and disputes are excluded.
