Eventbrite charges a Ticketing Fee for every paid ticket and add-on you sell. The Ticketing Fee consists of a Service fee and a Payment processing fee where applicable. If your tickets are free, you and your ticket-buyers don't pay any Ticketing Fees. The Ticketing Fees vary per country and currency. You can view your Ticketing Fees in your Organization settings.
Choose who pays the Ticketing Fees
By default, Ticketing Fees are paid by your ticket-buyers. However, when you create a paid ticket type, you can choose who will pay the Ticketing Fees.
- Absorb fees: Check the box next to “Absorb fees” if you want the fees to be included in the ticket price you set. Fees will be deducted from your sales at the time of your payout.
- Pass fees on: Leave the box next to “Absorb fees” unchecked if you want attendees to pay the fees on top of the ticket price you set. Fees will be collected off the top of your ticket sales at the time of your payout.
You can change this setting at any time, but the new fee setting will only apply to future orders.
Ticketing Fees per country
Your bank must be located in the payout country you choose. You can't change your payout country and currency when sales are pending or after tickets have been sold.
If you host large or complex events with paid tickets, Eventbrite offers tailored packages for your unique needs. Contact Sales Partnerships to learn more.
