Ticket Spot vs Ticket Tailor: The No-Fee Ticketing Alternative With More Flexibility
Ticket Tailor is well known for offering simple ticketing at a low cost—but its model still charges you for every ticket sold. Ticket Spot takes a different approach:
one flat monthly price, zero transaction fees, and support for more advanced event types.
If you're deciding between the two, this breakdown highlights the real differences that matter for modern event organizers.
1. Pricing: One Grows With You, One Stays Flat
Most organizers eventually hit the same moment with Ticket Tailor:
“Great… my event grew. Why did my bill grow too?”
Ticket Tailor
Per-ticket fees on every sale (even small ones).
Sell more = pay more.
Ticket Spot
One predictable monthly price.
Sell more = keep more.
If your event scales—or if you run multiple events a month—Ticket Spot’s pricing model protects your margins every time you sell a ticket.
2. Supported Platforms: Ticket Spot Works Everywhere
Ticket Spot is available as a native or embedded integration on:
- Wix (native app)
- Shopify (App Embed + App Block)
- WordPress (shortcode plugin)
- Any custom domain
- Any website via embed
Ticket Tailor offers embeds and hosted event pages, but no native Wix or Shopify integrations, which limits flexibility for businesses that rely on those platforms.
If your business runs on a real website—not a standalone ticketing link—Ticket Spot fits in more naturally.
3. Event Types: Ticket Spot Supports More Complex Setups
This is one of the biggest differences.
Ticket Tailor works best for:
- Single-date events
- Simple repeating events
- Basic ticket types
Ticket Spot supports everything above plus:
- Specific date pickers
- Multiple time slots per day
- Timed entry sessions
- Multi-day events
- Advanced recurring schedules (daily/weekly/monthly)
- Capacity limits per session
- Classes and workshops with repeating schedules
- Full event calendar pages and multi-event sites
If your events require anything more than “pick a date and show up,” Ticket Spot is built for that.
4. Branding & White Label: Full Control vs Conditional Control
Ticket Tailor
Branding tools exist—but full white-labeling and custom domains require higher-tier plans.
Ticket Spot
Full white-labeling and custom domains are included. Branding carries consistently across:
- Event pages
- Checkout
- Emails
- PDF tickets
- Apple Wallet passes
Your attendees see your brand everywhere—not ours.
5. Email Communication: Basic vs Professional Tools
Ticket Tailor
Email tools include:
- Order confirmation
- Simple reminders
Ticket Spot
A full communication system:
- Automated event reminders
- Post-event follow-ups
- Branded email templates
- Optional Mailchimp sync
- Segmentation tools for VIPs, no-shows, waitlists, and more
If communication and automation matter, Ticket Spot has the richer toolset.
6. Marketplace & Multi-Organizer Support
Here’s a feature Ticket Tailor doesn’t offer at all.
Ticket Spot can operate as a multi-organizer event marketplace, allowing you to:
- Let organizers create accounts
- Approve their submitted events
- Take automatic revenue share
- Give organizers dashboards for attendees + revenue
This is ideal for:
- Venues with rotating promoters
- Community event hubs
- University or campus ticketing
- Multi-host creative spaces
Ticket Tailor is single-organizer only.
7. Payments & Payouts
Ticket Tailor
Supports Stripe and PayPal.
Ticket Spot
Supports:
- Stripe
- PayPal
- Square
Payments always go directly to your account—Ticket Spot never sits between you and your money.
