## How we chose and ranked them

How did we choose and rank these platforms?

Ticket Fairy comes first as the featured all-in-one option: Ticket Fairy publishes this list, it is our own platform, and your box office, door team and customer service work in the same system that sells your tickets. Other platforms rank by how many of these five capabilities they include: door scanning, reserved seating, your buyer data, fees and payouts. Ties are decided by fit for a box office, where selling and scanning in one app and finding orders fast matter most. Showpass, TicketSpice, TryBooking, SimpleTix, Tessitura, Humanitix and Eventbrite include all five, Showpass with assigned seating on its Professional plan. Ticketsolve does not publish a per-ticket fee, and on Ticket Tailor each reserved seat uses an extra credit, so each counts four of the five. We describe every platform from its own published pages, and every fact links to its source, so you can check it before you choose.
