Putting an End to Fee Madness

At MainGate Tickets, we believe in putting the F.U. in Fee Unfairness. The ticketing industry has spiraled out of control with excessive fees, hidden charges, and complex pricing structures that hurt both event organizers and ticket buyers. We're taking a stand with transparent, fair pricing that puts more money in YOUR pocket and keeps tickets affordable for your customers.

While other platforms pile on fee after fee, calling them "service charges," "convenience fees," and "facility charges," we keep it simple. One straightforward fee structure. No surprises. No hidden costs. Just honest ticketing that works.

Real Cost Example

For a $50 ticket:

With MainGate your ticket is $51

Ticketmaster, it is $65-75 (30-50% more)

Eventbrite, it is $58-63 (16-26% more)

‍StubHub: $65-70 (30-40% more)‍

AXS: $60-68 (20-36% more)‍

Universe: $57-62 (14-24% more)

‍

Call or email us directly to get exclusive onboarding instructions, even better custom pricing and a more profitable ticketing experience.

Fairs & Festivals

A New World Record! Get your guests in the gates 4 times faster with MainGate. Let's say a family of 5 comes to your gate with their pre-purchased tickets in hand. With other platforms, they would need to present 5 different scan codes, One each for the 2 adults and 1 each for the 3 kids. With MainGate's Exclusive "All-In" Scanning, the entire family or even large group gets scanned in with a single "Beep". Our MAINGATE EVENT CHECK-IN app on your device will display the tickets they purchased, you hand them their wristbands or wave them on in. For large groups it's even more of an asset. You could have a school bus full of 25, 50, 100 kids (for example) and scan all of them in with one miraculous "Beep"!
