Pick Pay As You Go for the odd event, or Membership if you perform 4-8 events a year, and if you're planning more than 8 events a year, Gold Membership gets you a custom rate built around your season.
Plus Stripe's card fee (1.5% + 20p/ticket). No commitment.
If your customers pay by BACS, that's it — no more fees. How does that work?
Your very first published event on Tickets4Musicians is £17.50 instead of £25 — 30% off, applied automatically at checkout, no code needed. It only applies once, to the first event any group of yours ever publishes.
For a typical event (100 tickets at £10, paid by card) fees would be:
£25 fee + £35 Stripe card fee
8 events included — the maximum. Extra events top up at £25 each.
🔗 Run more than one group? At checkout you can choose Account Membership instead, for the same £98/yr — it shares that same 8-event allowance across every group on your login rather than covering just one.
For a typical year (5 events, 100 tickets at £10 each, paid by card) fees would be:
£98/yr + £175 Stripe card fees
Enter your event plans to see whether Pay As You Go or Membership works out cheaper — and how both compare to TicketSource, Eventbrite and Bath Box Office. Planning more than 8 events? You'll see a Gold Membership callout instead, since that's the better option once you're that busy.
Bank transfer (BACS) has no Stripe card fee, so with Tickets4Musicians you'd only pay the £25 event fee (or £98/yr membership) — shown below.

🎗️ By selling tickets through Tickets4Musicians, we donate 1p from every ticket (up to the first 200 per event) to Dorothy House — at no extra cost to you or your audience.
🎗️ Pay your own Tickets4Musicians fee by Pay by Bank instead of card, and we'll donate what we save on card fees to Dorothy House too.
🎭 Best way to see it all in action: sign in and try the demo. It gives you your own free, fully-editable copy of a real choir's page — events, prices, shop items, reports and all — so you can click around exactly as an organiser would, with nothing you do affecting anyone else.
Card payments are usually processed through Stripe. If you'd rather your buyers pay through SumUp, that's supported too — its online card fee is typically higher, around 2.5%, compared with Stripe's 1.5% + 20p/ticket.
To be clear: this card fee always comes out of what you receive, never added on top of the ticket price — your audience only ever pays the price you set.
