Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

How do I sign up to sell tickets?

You'll connect to Stripe (our secure payment partner) so you can get paid. After your name, email, phone, and address, Stripe asks for some business info that can be confusing. Select:

  • Business → Individual/Sole Trader
  • Industry → Entertainment
  • Business Activity → Event Ticketing
  • Website → I don't have a website
  • Product description → Selling event tickets
  • Add your bank details

Once that's done, you're ready to upload and sell 🎟

How do payouts work?

Stripe transfers money from your sales straight to your bank account. Payouts are sent on a weekly basis, so you'll usually see funds land the following week.

Can buyers make offers on my tickets?

Yes! Buyers can send you an offer. The offer will appear in your dashboard where you can accept or decline in one click.

What happens when a buyer purchases a ticket?

When a buyer completes their purchase, they'll immediately be able to download the ZIP file containing their ticket. They'll also simultaneously receive an email with a download link that expires 7 days later. Additionally, buyers receive an email asking for a seller review - please review the seller to help build a trustworthy community and platform.

How does Ticklish keep things safe?

No marketplace is 100% scam-proof, but we've built in features to keep things safer:

  • Stripe checkout — payments are processed securely.
  • Seller ratings — buyers can see who's trusted in the community.
  • No random bank transfers — everything runs through Ticklish

What does Ticklish cost?

We keep it cheaper than anyone else:

  • Seller fee: 3.18%
  • Buyer fee: 4% + £0.30 flat fee

That's it — no hidden extras. We're beating the market on price while still keeping everything smooth and secure.

What kind of tickets can I sell?

Any e-tickets for events (PDFs, QR codes, etc.). Just make sure the event allows resale. Paper tickets and cash swaps aren't supported.
