Spektrix fees in 2026

The dominant CRM-plus-ticketing system in UK arts venues — theatres, concert halls and arts centres run their box offices on it. Priced as an annual contract scaled to the organisation, not per ticket; it's venue infrastructure, not an event platform.

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.
