DICE for markets
Token entry fees under £5 — minimum-fee platforms can exceed 25% effective rates.
The numbers for this event type
DICE doesn't publish standard rates — industry sources cite a fan booking fee around 10–12%. For markets, that means the fee bill on 300 × £4 tickets is whatever your contract says; get it in writing before comparing.
Markets run on thin, often volunteer, margins — every pound of fee is visible. Fixed-pence fees are the enemy at this price point.
Compared at markets prices
The market computed on 300 × £4 — a realistic markets scenario.
Figures computed from each platform's stated rate (2026-07-26 data review). Where a rate excludes VAT it is shown grossed-up at 20%. Card processing paid to Stripe/PayPal applies similarly on most platforms and is excluded. Quote-only platforms can't be computed — their rates are negotiated.
