The free alternative to Ticketing.events
Ticketing.events is a QR-based ticketing and check-in tool that is free for free and charity events but charges a flat fee per ticket once you start selling. Ticketable charges nothing per ticket, paid or free, and adds Apple and Google Wallet passes as standard.
Start selling free →A flat $1 per paid ticket looks small until you scale: across 2,000 tickets that is $2,000, whatever you charged for them. Ticketable charges nothing per ticket at any volume — you only pay your Stripe processing at cost.

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 Ticketing.events — your questions
Is Ticketable cheaper than Ticketing.events?
On paid events, yes. Ticketing.events charges a flat fee per paid ticket, which scales linearly with volume. Ticketable charges no platform fee at any volume — the only cost is Stripe's card processing, passed through at cost.
Both are free for free events — what is the difference?
Free events are free on both. The difference shows the moment you sell a ticket: Ticketable stays at 0%, and you also get Apple and Google Wallet passes, an organiser-branded booking page and daily payouts into your own Stripe account.
Can I use Ticketable outside the UK?
Yes. Ticketable works anywhere Stripe Connect operates and supports GBP, USD, EUR and other Stripe-supported currencies, with prices shown in your local currency. There is no UK-only restriction.
