## What changes when you move from Kaboodle?

    What does Kaboodle charge?

Kaboodle's own pages publish no price for its advanced ticketing, and Kaboodle offers a demo. Its self-service ticketing sends you to Weezevent's Weezticket, which charges 2.5% per ticket sold online plus £0.99, with taxes and payment fees included, as shown to UK visitors. Weezevent's own pages call Kaboodle Weezevent's ticketing for events that go beyond entry. Kaboodle's terms say a buyer's order may carry a booking fee per ticket, a card handling fee and a transaction fee per order. On Ticket Fairy, every plan has one standard ticketing fee with card processing included, and you choose whether buyers pay it on top of your price or you absorb it. On a paid plan you can also add your own ticketing fee on top of Ticket Fairy's, and you keep your own fee. [1](#source-1) [106](#source-106) [107](#source-107) [108](#source-108) [109](#source-109) [110](#source-110) [7](#source-7)

    Which Kaboodle alternatives offer festival payment plans?

On Ticket Fairy, your buyers can pay a deposit at checkout and the rest in weekly or monthly installments that finish before the event. Easol buyers can pay a deposit and the balance later or pay in installments you set, Skiddle offers monthly payment plans, and Eventcube offers Deposit Tickets. [8](#source-8) [13](#source-13) [18](#source-18) [34](#source-34)

    When do I get my ticket money if I leave Kaboodle?

It depends on how the platform holds your money. On Ticket Fairy you can be paid daily as tickets sell on your own connected Stripe account, where your country supports it. If Ticket Fairy collects the payments, it usually pays you 10 to 15 business days after the event, and where there are chargebacks or cancellations, funds can be held for the chargeback window. Easol pays weekly in arrears on Fridays after deducting its fees, and Eventcube sends your earnings to your own Stripe account after every sale. [1](#source-1) [111](#source-111) [33](#source-33)

    Which Kaboodle alternatives let fans resell tickets at face value?

Ticket Fairy lets your fans resell and transfer tickets at face value, with each returned ticket offered to the next fan on your waiting list. Skiddle offers face-value resale through Re:Sell. [68](#source-68) [17](#source-17)

    Can I run cashless and accreditation if I leave Kaboodle?

Yes. Ticket Fairy works with Weezevent cashless: you can keep Weezevent cashless at your event and, once Ticket Fairy confirms the integration for your event, see ticket sales and guest entry together, with on-site spend where Weezevent shares it. On Ticket Fairy, you can also issue accreditation passes that your door team scans with the same app as tickets. [112](#source-112) [113](#source-113)

## When staying put makes sense

When should you stay with Kaboodle?

Kaboodle remains a fit when you rely on its access control to keep scanning tickets during internet outages, or on its staff and accreditation management with team recruitment, zones and roles. If your festival uses Weezevent cashless, Ticket Fairy works with it, so you can keep it at your event whichever ticketing you choose.

## Already on Kaboodle? Use Ticket Fairy alongside it
