An Eventbrite alternative, compared on cost
What would it cost me?
Put your own event in. Every figure below is the total the host pays, with card processing included, so you are comparing the same thing on every row.
Eventbrite only sells the ticket. A Hive House Games plan runs the event itself: the games, the live hosting, the display screens, and as many events as your plan allows. So every row compares total cost to total cost, and what you get for that cost is where they differ.

Our rows include Stripe card processing at 2.9% plus $0.30 a transaction, which Stripe bills you directly on top of our fee. Per ticket is fees only; the subscription is a monthly cost and is on its own line.
Eventbrite fees as published on September 24, 2026: 3.7% plus $1.79 a ticket, plus 2.9% processing. Their pricing page. Both sides assume one ticket per order, which is the assumption least favorable to us.
