How our booking fees are changing.

We regret to inform you that, due to the rising costs of operating a sustainable business,… GOTCHA!

You were braced for bad news, just another addition to the pile of cost increases littering your inbox. Cost-of-living pressures are squeezing every business, and most of them are passing that squeeze straight onto you.

So here's our promise to you.

Effective 1 July 2026, Humanitix's booking fees are staying exactly the same. In fact, we haven't raised them in 10 years.

No sneaky percentage bump, no new "service charge" quietly added at checkout, no fine print.

(Our first website from 2016. Our booking fees haven't changed since.)

Why we're not doing what everyone else is doing

Most ticketing platforms are for-profit, which means they answer to shareholders. When costs rise, that pressure tends to fall on event hosts and ticket buyers.

Humanitix is built differently. We're a non profit and a for-purpose platform, which means we answer to the same people who use it: the hosts running events and the people buying tickets. That structure gives us more room to hold our fees steady, even when costs elsewhere are climbing.

(We love our event hosts, ticket buyers and community of supporters!)

Events are for everyone

That's really the headline here. Not "fees aren't changing," but why access to events matters in the first place.

Live music, theatre, festivals, community fundraisers: these things shouldn't be reserved for people who can absorb the rising costs. Every dollar added to a ticket price is a decision about who gets to walk through the door and who gets priced out.

Keeping our fees low is about keeping events within reach for as many people as possible.

A discount for doing good

We believe the organisations doing the most good in the world shouldn't be held back by the high costs of traditional ticketing platforms. That's why we offer a discounted not-for-profit rate for schools and charity hosts, giving them access to a world-class platform to put on a world-class event.

100% of profits to charity

100% of Humanitix's booking fee profits are dedicated towards charity. Not "a portion of proceeds." All of it!

Our booking fees work towards ending extreme poverty, funding meals, healthcare, education, and life's basic necessities for the people who need it most.

Using Humanitix does more than get you through the door. It opens one up for someone else.
