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.

Questions people ask

What does Humanitix charge in 2026?

Humanitix's current structure is 4.67% + 46p per paid ticket (excl VAT). On a £20 ticket that's £1.67 per ticket including VAT — 8.4% of face value.

Who pays the fee — me or my fans?

By default the fee is added on the fan's side at checkout — buyers pay face value plus the fee. Many platforms let organisers absorb it instead; either way the total is what the market responds to.

What are the cheapest alternatives to Humanitix?

For lower fees, compare Humanitix against flat-fee Ticket Tailor (60p + VAT PAYG, credits from 22p) and zero-fee Tickts (£0). The right choice depends on whether Humanitix's audience genuinely brings you buyers — see our alternatives guide.
