Competitor pricing note
- Ticket Tailor public pricing reviewed March 15, 2026 showed Free for free up to 5,000 free tickets per year, Pay upfront from £0.22 per ticket (+ VAT), and Pay as you sell at £0.60 per ticket.
- Ticket Tailor's pricing help also showed a US Stripe example of 2.9% + $0.30 payment processing, so this calculator uses a USD estimate of the published pay-as-you-sell fee plus standard processing.
- MrStubs does not claim parity with every Ticket Tailor box office, discovery, or add-on feature.
