How to sell event tickets online for free

Selling tickets online should be simple, but most ticketing platforms add a service fee to every ticket that either eats your margin or gets passed to your attendees. For a club running regular events, that adds up fast. Here is how to sell tickets without the stacked fees.

Create the event and add tickets

Publish your event on your club page with a date, location and description, then add ticket types. Free events cost nothing; for paid tickets you connect Stripe and pay only standard processing, with no per-ticket platform fee on top.

Check people in at the door

Every ticket comes with a QR code, so on the day you scan people in rather than hunting through a printed list. You know exactly who turned up, which is gold for planning your next event.

Turn attendees into members

The advantage of running tickets on your own club page instead of a one-off listing is what happens next: attendees land somewhere they can join the club, see future events and get your announcements.
