The free alternative to Humanitix
Humanitix is a social enterprise that donates its booking fees to charity — a lovely model, but it still adds a fee to your tickets. Ticketable adds no booking fee at all; it's funded by light advertising instead.
Start selling free →Humanitix adds a booking fee to each ticket (it varies, and goes to charity). Ticketable adds £0 in platform fees — so if you'd rather keep the money and give to a cause of your own choosing, you can.

Running a ticketing platform isn’t as expensive as the big players make out. Ticketable covers its costs through small, tasteful, non-intrusive advertising — for example a discreet sponsor logo on the printable ticket. Nothing on your event page, and nothing that interrupts your buyer. That’s the only thing subsidising the platform — so you keep every penny of your ticket revenue.
Ticketable vs Humanitix — your questions
What's the difference between Ticketable and Humanitix?
Both let organisers keep the face value and pass a fee to the buyer, but Humanitix's buyer-side booking fee funds children's charities, whereas Ticketable charges no booking fee at all (it's ad-funded). With Ticketable the buyer simply pays less.
Can I still support a charity with Ticketable?
Yes — because you keep 100% of your ticket revenue with no platform fee, you're free to donate whatever you choose to any cause, rather than the platform deciding.
Who holds the money?
Humanitix collects and pays out. Ticketable pays you directly via your own connected Stripe account, with daily payouts — Ticketable never holds your funds.
Is Ticketable really free?
Yes — no platform fee, no per-ticket cut, no subscription. It's funded by tasteful advertising on printable tickets.
