You keep 100% of your ticket price.
Our fee is 3%, and your buyer pays it — along with card processing. List a ticket at $20 and you receive $20. There's no listing fee, no monthly fee, and nothing charged for an event that doesn't sell.
A $20 ticket — your buyer pays
$21.53
$20.00 your ticket + $1.53 service fee
Where the $1.53 service fee goes
How that number is worked out
Your buyer sees a single Service fee line at checkout. It covers two things:
- Card processing — 2.9% + 30¢, charged by Stripe, not by us.
- nesso's 3% — calculated on your list price, so 60¢ on a $20 ticket.
Those aren't simply added together. Stripe takes its percentage of whatever the card is actually charged, so the total has to be worked backwards until what's left equals your list price exactly. That's why the combined figure comes to roughly 6.1% + 31¢ rather than a flat 5.9% + 30¢.
Your first event is free
The first event you sell tickets to on nesso carries no platform fee at all — your buyers still cover card processing, but our 3% comes off. It applies automatically to the first event that sells a ticket, so there's nothing to claim and no code to enter. From your second event on, the 3% above applies.
What your buyer pays
Your side never changes — you receive your list price at every level.

Free tickets are free
A tier priced at $0 carries no fee at all — nothing goes through checkout, so there's nothing for anyone to charge. Run a free event and nesso costs you nothing.
