“The ease of creating an online ticket platform that I could monitor the ticket sales of my school's productions saved a lot of time and effort. Plus it saved lots of cost making everything digital and not making a paper trail of cash and printing ticket forms.“

“The cancellation insurance hard-sell wording when buying tickets is off-putting (two options - buy or lose out) when we do offer cancellations up to 48 hours.“

### "Helpful and Pro-active - run by real people"

February 28, 2026

5.0

As an event hoster, I find creating their listings intuitive, the fee they charge very low and reasonable (meaning I can feel comfortable offsetting this for customers to pay) and their staff communication when contacted swift and helpful.

Pros

I recently had a performer cancel on me, and when I paused ticket sales, and informed customers through Ticketsource, the team got in touch to let me know they would refund both the ticket price and the booking fee direct to my customers. This sort of pro-active, communicative assistance, seems rare these days, as does the fact they weren't money-grubbing! Highly recommend this platform.

Cons

Not Applicable :) I only hope they become more popular so that they pop up higher on search engines.

Alternatives considered

[Eventbrite](https://www.capterra.com/p/114949/Eventbrite/)

Reason for choosing TicketSource

The fee charged is much lower, which is more helpful for my customers.

April 1, 2026

5.0

First class would definitely use again -they were very helpful and easy to communicate with -being able to send an email via ticket source to all customers was again so easy

Pros

Made running a dance show so much easier , not having to deal with the ticket sales myself -far less hassle

Cons

Having to wait for our ticket money was a bit of a disadvantage as the theatre were chasing us for their invoice to be paid .

### "amazing way to sell fundraising event tickets "

April 1, 2026

5.0

Really pleased with the whole process and how easy it was to sell tickets for our fundraising event.

Pros

It was very easy to set up and easy to send out links and QR code for parents to make payment. It was great that you could keep up to date with ticket sales so that you could push your event if needed and that you had an attendees list. The fact that the admin cost is also passed on means that it is not impacting our fundraising amount from ticket sales which makes it great value for money. It was easy to scan people in and record attendance on the day of the event keeping track on who attended from the ticket sales.

Cons

There isnt anything that I didnt like I found the whole process really easy from set up to promoting to parents to managing the sales.

### "Easy, Intuitive and Comprehensive"

March 4, 2026

5.0

Very positive experience indeed. First time user, found it easy to use. When I needed to dive a little deeper the online support team where readily available and very helpful. Would most definitely recommend to other bands seeking to presell gig tickets.

Pros

The platform is intuitive, multi-functional and has excellent reporting facilities. The ability to upload images for tickets, send emails to ticket holders was also very useful

Cons

Lack of access to funds pre-event was as surprise. Our event sold out two months before it took place, but we were unable to access the funds until the event had completed, meaning we had to pay for staff/ sound/ lights etc out of our own pockets then get paid back by the platform.

### "Excellent service"

March 18, 2026

5.0

Excellent, cant fault the service and the website at all. From start to finish it was straight forward.

Pros

I found Ticketsource really useful. As someone with limit tech skills, once id learnt the basics it was so easy. Event ticket was easy, the marketing and sales side of things was stdaight forward. Value for money is exceptional. Cant fault the fees. I felt like the site was secure, and i was confident using it. Will definitely use again.

Cons

It took me a little bit of time to work out how to use it. And i dod t realise that tickets stopped selling, and the link stopped working 24hrs before the event, have since learnt i can alter that.

### "All good. I will use them for my next gig."

April 15, 2026

4.0

All good. Easy to set up and use. Paid out 4 days after the event. Lower fees than EventBrite. I'd use TicketSource again.

Cons

Obviously I'd like no fees and to be paid out within 24hrs but that's probably a dream! No real cons once I'd got my head around how to use it.

April 15, 2026

5.0

Pretty good, system is very flexible and allowed me to do everything I wanted to do and using the app to scan tickets on entry.

Pros

Flexibility, allowed me to set up the event exactly how I wanted to and modify it until I got the end result I wanted

Cons

Finding under which section all the options were stored when I wanted to modify an event, but it was my first time using the system and will expect that I will get used to it the more I use it.

### "I would absolutely recommend Ticket Source."

March 4, 2026

5.0

Excellent. Great functionality and super-easy to use. The Scanning App and supporting restricted logins means we are able to have teenagers doing the scanning.

Pros

This is our first time using Ticket Source. It is so easy to use and a great FAQ section if you need specific info.

Cons

Tiny detail: if you can't claim back the VAT, being able to see the fee inclusive of VAT could be helpful.

### "Great ticketing website"

October 6, 2025

Very positive. Would highly recommend and use again! Loved the online facility and reporting. Quick payments.

Pros

Easy to use, reasonable charges, great reporting, easy to edit/ update, quick payment after the event.

Cons

Lack of support when needed it. But lots of help with guides/ videos etc and easy to use. Would like to be able to donate without buying a ticket.

### "Everything worked perfectly!"

December 3, 2025

5.0

This was the first time our group used an online ticketing company. Our customers liked it, they found it easy to use. We liked it because we could see daily how ticket sales were going. This allowed us to know when to 'push' sales a bit harder, which lead to a sell out concert over a week in advance.

Pros

The website is basically easy to use. The ticket commission is very competitive. Our customers are mostly senior citizens and they had no problems booking their tickets. We liked being able to see ticket sales daily.

Cons

We didn't experience any real problems. There was a bit of a learning curve to understand some of the event set up procedure, but once that was mastered it was plain sailing.

### "Really good experience"

December 24, 2025

4.0

Really good experience overall, the support from the team was fantastic and for this reason i would use again and the fat that they add a booking fee rather than take it out of the ticket price is really valuable if, like me, your event is to raise money.

Pros

I had some teething issues but nothing a quick phone call to an actual person could not sort out. It was easy to use once i understood it. Payment was easy and using the app to scan was easy too... would reccomend

Cons

I wish there was to see previous communications i had sent to customers, i could not find it. Also i thought that i had to scan each individual so morw information on scqnning would be useful to know.

### "Excellent starter experience for our first event."

November 20, 2025

4.0

Very good - will continue to use TS in future for any other events we run. This was a word-of-mouth recommendation, and it was a good one!

Pros

Very easy to learn: simple to set up a ticketed event with simple capabilities: extras available beyond the first exploration to be exploited with more experience of the package for later events.

Cons

Not really applicable - have not yet had enough experience with TS to find any real problems/dislikes.

### "Simply work!"

June 25, 2025

5.0

It's a friendly, easy to use site. Anything I could think of is there when organising an event for a small organisation.

Pros

Simple to use. Efficient. The reporting features are comprehensive. Automation of closure and payment works a treat.

Cons

Event management, with multiple dates or price categories, can be very click heavy for changes. A 'apply to all' feature for example when changing a price for tickets, would be good.

### "5 Star Experience Using Ticket Source!"

November 26, 2025

5.0

Easy, great, seamless, and fun! No complaints and nothing I would have changed, would highly recommend the platform to other organizers!

Pros

Super easy to use! Liked the sales and questionnaire reports - made it easy to share with co-organizers. There were no issues using the platform and I appreciated the quick payment after the event was over. Fantastic experience from start to finish, thank you so much!

Cons

nothing in particular, maybe would have liked getting an email every time a ticket was purchased, and didn't like how the fee increased when ticket prices increased.
