Compare monthly ticketing costs
Choose a small event within the included allowance. All figures are USD. Per-ticket charges are rounded to cents. These are ticketing charges, before payment processing, taxes and optional add-ons.
| Platform | Ticketing cost |
|---|---|
| Ticket Spot Professional | $29.99 subscription; no extra capacity needed |
| TicketSpice | $247.50 ticketing charges |
Professional includes 500 attendees and 0 reserved seats per month. Reserved seats and attendee capacity are separate allowances. Higher usage can require a plan upgrade, ticket packs and/or Reserved Seating Packs. Annual billing differs.
Payment processing is additional on every platform. Eventbrite lists 2.9% of the total order in the US; TicketSpice lists 2.9% + 30¢ with its standard processor. Ticket Spot uses your connected processor's rates. Shopify merchants also pay Shopify subscription and applicable transaction fees. Plans are not feature-matched, and this is not a total checkout quote.

Ticket Spot connects to Shopify ticketing, Wix and WordPress. Set up ticket types, deliver QR tickets and check attendees in against a live guest list. Interactive seating starts on Business; full white-label mode starts on Business+. Check the allowances before choosing a plan.
Explore the setup for festivals and concerts, reserved seating, or attractions and tours. For a switch, first recreate one event and test a purchase and scan. Confirm existing attendee imports, refunds and any old ticket barcodes with support before moving a live event.
Before you move an event from TicketSpice
Start with one upcoming event. Confirm its dates, ticket types, capacity and any seat map, then test the complete purchase, ticket delivery and check-in flow. Keep existing orders and refunds with their original payment provider until you have agreed a migration plan. Do not assume previously issued QR codes will work in a new app.
Use our TicketSpice switching checklist to decide what to test before moving live sales.
Compare the full event workflow
For a box office, check the Square ticket sales workflow, supported hardware and recovery steps before choosing on price alone. For a Shopify store, compare Shopify ticketing apps on checkout, plan allowances and per-ticket charges.
