## What matters for your events

What should a fair or show look for in a ticketing platform?

You open the gates for one or several days, sell adult, child and family tickets, and many visitors decide on the morning. You need tickets on your own website, extras such as parking in the same checkout, a gate that sells as well as scans, a fee visitors accept, money in time to pay your suppliers and ways to tell last year's visitors about this year.

1. You know what each ticket costs in fees, and who pays them.
2. You get paid in time to pay your suppliers and crew.
3. Visitors buy on your own website, with extras in the same checkout.
4. Your gate team scans tickets and sells to walk-ups.
5. You can tell past visitors when tickets go on sale again.

## What else should you know?

    What is the best ticketing platform for a fair or show?  Ticket Fairy is the best fit if you want day and weekend tickets, extras such as parking in the same checkout and walk-up sales at the gate from one platform. TicketSpice suits fairs in the US and Canada that want a box office app taking cards, wallets and cash, and Etix suits a large fair that wants its own point of sale. [1](#source-1) [10](#source-10) [11](#source-11) [2](#source-2) [8](#source-8)    Can I sell tickets at the gate on the day?  Yes.

The TicketSpice Box Office app takes cards, mobile wallets and cash, Events.com has a point-of-sale app that prints tickets on site, and Ticketsauce kiosk mode lets visitors pay without staff. [11](#source-11) [2](#source-2) [23](#source-23) [7](#source-7)    Can visitors add parking or extras to their tickets?  Yes.

## 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 you can run your whole fair or show on it, from ticket sales to trader applications, crew rotas and your site map, not only the ticketing. Every other platform follows in order of how many of the five things we compared it includes: fees, payouts, your event website or checkout on your site, door scanning and marketing tools. Platforms with the same count follow how closely they fit a fair or show, where walk-up sales at the gate and extras in the same checkout matter most. TicketSpice, TicketLeap, Events.com, SimpleTix and Eventbrite include all five. Ticketsauce does not publish a fee amount, so it counts four. Etix and Front Gate Tickets do not publish their fees or payout timing, so each counts three of the five.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.
