What does a ticket cost in fees?
Posh adds 10% + $0.99 to each paid ticket and the buyer pays it; card processing is included in that fee. On Evnts there's no fee on top, and Stripe's standard card fee comes out of the host's payout.
| Ticket price | Posh | Evnts |
|---|---|---|
| $10 | $1.99 (buyer, processing included) | $0 (Stripe's card fee only) |
| $20 | $2.99 (buyer, processing included) | $0 (Stripe's card fee only) |
| $50 | $5.99 (buyer, processing included) | $0 (Stripe's card fee only) |
Posh's fee includes card processing; Evnts' $0 doesn't, so the host covers Stripe's card fee (typically 2.9% + 30¢ in the US). Figures from Posh's own pages, checked October 2026.
