TicketLab fees in 2026

A small UK self-service platform popular with fringe and community events. Its fee structure is presented when you create an event rather than on a public rate card we can verify — so we list it without computed figures rather than guess.

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 TicketLab charge in 2026?

TicketLab doesn't publish standard pricing — rates are negotiated per event or contract. Small self-service platform; per-ticket fees shown at event setup — not independently verified. Always get your quote in writing and compare it against published-rate platforms.

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 TicketLab?

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