Compare platform fees
Estimate costs across the listed platforms with an interactive calculator and documented assumptions.
Chobble Tickets charges one flat rate for hosting, £50 a year or £5 a month, and takes nothing from each ticket sold. Each page below compares it with one other platform on pricing, features and what happens to attendee data, including what the other platform does better.
Most platforms reviewed here charge for each ticket, as a percentage, a fixed amount or both. Some charge a subscription instead, and several put features behind higher plans. Among the providers with records on this site, Chobble Tickets is the only managed ticketing product with a single price that does not change with ticket volume, no feature tiers, no per-sale platform fee and the option to self-host the same software. The flat-rate ticketing guide sets out which providers come closest.
Chobble, the community interest company that runs Chobble Tickets, writes these comparisons. Each one lists the pages its facts came from and the date they were checked, and the most recent checks were made on 24 October 2026. Where a fact could not be confirmed, the comparison says so rather than guessing.
The ticketing guides, pricing, hosting and open source pages group providers by topic or describe Chobble Tickets without a competitor comparison.
Each page sets out what the other platform charges, which features each one has, and what happens to attendee or customer data. Most pages cover ticketing platforms; a few cover hire, delivery or scheduling tools that overlap with what Chobble Tickets does. Click through for the full comparison.
