Frequently asked questions
How much does Tito charge?
Tito’s pricing lists a fee of 3% per ticket (2.5% for charity, community and non-profit events, on application), plus your payment gateway’s fees. Free events are free. (From Tito’s own pages, checked 7 November 2026.)
Is Ticket Cherry free for organisers?
There’s no subscription and no paid plan, and free events carry no fee. Paid tickets carry one transaction fee: 2.5% of each paid ticket. Payment processing fees are charged separately by our payment provider.
Do I have to build my own seating plan?
No — unless you want to. Send us your venue layout (a PDF, a floor plan or a clear photo) from Venues & seating and we’ll build the plan in your account, free of charge; you check it and publish it. You can also build or edit plans yourself, with sections, rows, price bands and wheelchair and companion spaces. Curved and free-form layouts are built as rows and sections for now.
Is there an app for scanning tickets?
iOS and Android apps for organisers and door staff are on the way. Today, door staff scan in any phone browser with no app to install: online, a ticket can only be admitted once, and you can download an event for offline scanning, with conflicts flagged when phones reconnect.
When do I get paid?
Paid sales are designed to go straight to your own payment account, so you’re the seller and you’re paid out directly on the payment provider’s schedule. Ticket Cherry is in prelaunch testing, so live payments aren’t open yet.
How do I switch from Tito?
Create your account, set up your shop and build your events — you can do all of that before connecting payments. Tickets you’ve already sold on Tito stay there; start selling new events or dates on Ticket Cherry when you’re ready. You can export your own orders and attendees from Ticket Cherry as CSV at any time.
Can my shop use my own brand and domain?
Yes. Your logo, colours, fonts and images, and your own domain at no extra charge. Buyers see your name first.
Do my buyers need an account?
No. Guest checkout, with tickets and a secure order link by email, and a ‘Find my tickets’ page if they lose them.
