Competitor fee structures are representative examples for comparison. Actual third-party fees vary by provider, contract, and event type.
Payment processing is separate. Card payments still incur standard payment processing fees (typically charged by the processor, such as Stripe) on top of the platform fee above.
Base platform rates. The $0.50 / 3% structure applies to core ticketing on the Open Gate platform. Additional features, custom integrations, on-site support packages, or special contracts may adjust these values—we'll always confirm pricing before you go live.
