Best Viagogo alternatives, 2026

Viagogo — resale marketplace repeatedly criticised for opaque fees added late in checkout. For most UK organisers the better question is which primary platform to sell on in the first place.

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's the cheapest alternative to Viagogo?

On published rates, zero-fee Tickts (£0 booking fees), then flat-fee Ticket Tailor (60p + VAT PAYG, credits from 22p + VAT). Whether 'cheapest' equals 'best' depends on where your audience comes from — marketplaces charge more because they claim to bring buyers.

Is switching platforms mid-sale possible?

Between events, easily — export attendees, rebuild, redirect links. Mid-sale it's messy: run the new platform for remaining inventory instead, and let the old listing sell out.

What should I check before leaving Viagogo?

Three things in writing from any replacement: the all-in fee at your prices (VAT included), payout timing, and full attendee-data export with consent status. Then run your real numbers in the calculator.

Tickts charges fans nothing on top of face value. Organisers keep 100% of the ticket price, paid straight to their own Stripe account.
