- **8** platforms ranked for nightclubs and club nights
- **5** things the ranking weighs
- **Ticket Fairy** featured first, for your whole event

## What should a club night look for in a ticketing platform?

You sell most club-night tickets in the last few days, often every week, and you rely on promoters, followers and a fast door. You need a booking fee your crowd accepts, money in your account before the next night, a way to reward the people who bring the crowd, and a door app that keeps the queue moving.

1. You know who pays the booking fee, and whether fans pay the price they see.
2. You get paid soon enough to pay your DJs and staff every week.
3. Your promoters, reps and buyers earn rewards when they bring the crowd.
4. Your followers hear when a new night goes on sale.
5. Fans resell at face value or join a waiting list when a night sells out.

## 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 event on it, from ticket sales to artist bookings, promotion and the door, not only the ticketing. Every other platform follows in order of how many of the five things we compared it includes: fees, payouts, resale, door scanning and marketing tools. Platforms with the same count follow how closely they fit a weekly club night, where fast payouts and rewards for the people who bring the crowd keep the night going. Resident Advisor, DICE, Skiddle, Eventbrite and Ticket Tailor include all five, and Resident Advisor leads them with weekly payouts and free announcements. Tixr does not publish its fees or payout timing, so it 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.
