Fatsoma for weddings
Contribution events and ticketed receptions — fees on gifts sit badly with everyone.
The numbers for this event type
At a typical £25 weddings ticket, Fatsoma's rate of 5% + 49p per ticket (as published) works out to £1.74 per ticket (7.0% of face value). Across 100 tickets that's £174.00 in booking fees — money that either your fans pay on top or you give up from the door.
Weddings are invitation-led — you need access control and clean money handling, not marketplace reach, so discovery-priced fees buy nothing.
