Switch from FIXR to Ticketable
FIXR is a familiar name for student and nightlife events, but it charges fans 4.99% + 49p (+VAT) on every paid ticket and pays organisers out after the event. Ticketable charges 0%, pays into your own Stripe, and is just as quick to set up for a club night or ball.
Why organisers move from FIXR
- Cut the 4.99% + 49p (+VAT). Across a busy student calendar, FIXR's per-ticket fee adds up. Ticketable's platform fee is £0 — you only pay Stripe's processing at cost.
- Built for fast, repeat events. Publish a club night in minutes, reuse ticket types, apply discount codes, and check people in from any phone — including offline at a venue with poor signal.
- Get paid directly, daily. Instead of a post-event payout, money flows into your own Stripe account with daily payouts.
How to switch to Ticketable
- Export your attendees. Download your existing customer list from FIXR so you can invite past buyers to your next event. Your audience is yours to keep.
- Create your event on Ticketable. Set up the event, ticket types and capacity — it takes a few minutes, with no demo or sales call.
- Connect your Stripe account. Link your own Stripe so payments land directly in your bank with daily payouts. Running a free event? You can publish without Stripe.
- Publish and share. Go live, share your branded booking link, and check attendees in at the door with the free scanner app.
What you bring with you
The things that matter come with you: your audience (export your buyers and keep marketing to them), your branding (an organiser-themed booking page), and your money (paid directly into your own Stripe account, daily). There’s no contract and no minimum, so you can move one event at a time. For the full numbers, see the Ticketable vs FIXR comparison.
