The money is yours from the first order
Buyers pay into your own Stripe, Flitt or AllPay account. ArenaSoldOut.com never holds funds, so there is no payout to wait for after the event.
PaymentsAn Eventbrite alternative without a percentage of your ticket price
Eventbrite takes a percentage of every ticket plus a fixed amount. ArenaSoldOut.com takes a flat fee per ticket, whatever the ticket costs, and the money goes to your own payment account with every order. Below are both price lists side by side, as published on 11 November 2026.
Price per ticket
How much does a ticket cost on each platform?
Prices of both platforms as of 11 November 2026. Our commission per ticket sold next to Eventbrite's service fee. Card processing is paid separately on both platforms in the US: to Eventbrite there, to your own payment provider with us.

What does that mean for one event?
All figures at the prices of both platforms as of 11 November 2026.
1,000 tickets at US$30, pay as you go. ArenaSoldOut.com: 1,000 × US$0.62 = US$620. Eventbrite: 1,000 × (3.7% of US$30 + US$1.79) = US$2,900. That is US$2,280 of difference, before card processing on either side.
300 seated tickets at US$60. ArenaSoldOut.com: 300 × US$1.18 = US$354, and we draw the seating plan for free. Eventbrite: 300 × (3.7% of US$60 + US$1.79) = US$1,203.
The more a ticket costs, the bigger the gap. Our commission stays the same on a US$15 ticket and on a US$150 one. A percentage grows with the price.

Extra servicesQuestions organizers ask when they compare
Is ArenaSoldOut.com cheaper than Eventbrite?
On the commission, yes, at any ticket price: US$0.62 per ticket instead of 3.7% + US$1.79 in the US, and €0.55 instead of 5.9% + €0.79 in Ireland. Card processing comes on top on both platforms in the US.
Who pays the fee, me or the buyer?
You decide. You can add your own service fee for the buyer on top of the ticket price, or keep the price as it is and pay our commission yourself. Invitations and free tickets to paid events carry no commission.
Where does the buyer's money go?
Into your own payment account with every order: Stripe, Flitt or AllPay. ArenaSoldOut.com never holds funds. Our commission is invoiced after the event or taken from your credits.
Will my event be listed in a marketplace?
No. Eventbrite has a marketplace where buyers browse events; ArenaSoldOut.com does not. We sell tickets on your site and on your own event page, and you bring the buyers with your own channels.
Can I move my events from Eventbrite?
Yes. You create your events in the Event Center or the Telegram bot, we draw your seating plans for free, and you keep selling on Eventbrite until your page with us is ready. No time to set it up yourself? Our event manager does it for you, as a paid service.
Do I pay a subscription?
No. You pay only for tickets sold, after the event, or buy credits upfront from US$0.38 per ticket. Credits never expire.
