Compare absorbing the fee with passing it to buyers

Use the calculator before publishing an event page. It shows the buyer price, the Hambax fee, and the amount you receive, so you can decide whether to keep the advertised ticket price clean or let buyers cover the fee at checkout.

No monthly subscription

No setup fee before your event goes live.
Free events cost nothing because no paid ticket is sold.
The scanner app, QR-code tickets, event page, and sales dashboard are included.
You can compare organizer-paid and buyer-paid fees before launch.

Pass fees to buyers or absorb them?

The calculator is useful because both pricing models can be right. Absorbing the fee keeps the advertised ticket price simple. Passing the fee to buyers protects your margin but raises the final checkout price.

Absorb the fee when a clean, round ticket price is more important than maximum net revenue.
Pass the fee to buyers when event margins are tight and buyers can understand the final checkout price.
Run the 10, 20, and 50 EUR examples before choosing the model for early bird, standard, and VIP tickets.

Check ticketing costs before launch

Use the cost comparison page to review subscription fees, per-ticket fees, buyer fees, payout assumptions, scanner costs, and free-event pricing before you publish ticket sales.
