Why organisers switch to tickts
No platform fees at all
LiveIt charges a platform fee on every ticket plus separate payment processing fees. With tickts, there are no platform fees. You only pay standard Stripe processing (1.5% + 20p).
Paid direct to your Stripe
On Card Services, LiveIt holds your money until 5 days after your event. With tickts, payments go straight to your Stripe account immediately.
Simpler pricing
Bookitbee runs two plans with different rates, a per-ticket minimum, a cap, and VAT on top, and its full-service LIVE IT tier is quote-only. tickts pricing is simple: zero booking fees for fans, zero commission for organisers. Free Starter plan, optional paid plans for advanced features.
Modern experience
tickts offers Google Wallet passes, Apple Wallet support, and a modern checkout experience. Your fans get premium tickets at zero extra cost.
Optional refund protection for fans
At checkout your fans can add TicketPlan refund protection and claim the ticket price back if they cannot attend for a covered reason. It is optional, never pre-ticked, and the premium never touches your payout.
