Simple pricing
R0 to list. R0 per ticket to TKKT.
TKKT does not add a booking fee or take a percentage of your ticket price. Paid transactions run through your own Yoco, PayFast, or Paystack account.
Your payment provider still charges its standard card-processing rate. That fee is set and collected by the provider, not TKKT.

Payment processing through your gateway
01
A verified paid event on these terms
Beyond the Dust at Opium, Cape Town, on 6 May 2026 issued 110 paid tickets and processed R27,500 through the organiser's own gateway. TKKT charged R0 in platform fees. Twelve attendees added R5,100 in optional top-ups, including one R4,000 supporter.
That is the complete paid path: listing, checkout, ticket email, organiser reporting, and money that never sat in a TKKT settlement queue.
02
What is included
The core event workflow is available without a TKKT subscription.
Free and paid tickets
Publish free RSVP events immediately, or connect a supported payment provider for paid tickets.
QR tickets and check-in

Organiser dashboard
See ticket totals, revenue processed through your gateway, guest details, and check-in progress.
Promotion tools
Use tracked sharing links, promo codes, tiered pricing, and optional event-specific top-ups.
Direct payment architecture
TKKT does not collect your ticket revenue and then pay it out later. Your gateway processes it for your account.

What you may still pay
-
01
Payment-provider processing
Yoco, PayFast, or Paystack applies its own current transaction pricing. Check your provider account for the rate that applies to you.
-
02
Refund costs or retained fees
Refund handling and any non-refundable processing fees are governed by your provider. After refunding there, contact TKKT to invalidate the matching QR ticket and update its status.
-
03
Optional future tools
TKKT is currently bootstrapped. Optional paid organiser tools may be introduced later, but the plan is not to add a per-ticket TKKT fee.
04
How can TKKT be free?
TKKT is currently bootstrapped during its founding-organiser period. The goal is to prove that organisers can repeatedly run successful events before introducing paid products.
Future revenue is planned around optional organiser tools and services, such as advanced operations, branding, team access, and launch support. Core ticketing remains positioned around R0 TKKT platform fees.
FAQ
Questions organisers ask
Does TKKT add a fee for the ticket buyer?
No. TKKT does not add its own booking fee at checkout. The organiser sets the displayed ticket price and the connected payment provider processes the transaction.
Do free events need a payment gateway?
No. A free event can be published and issue RSVPs without Yoco, PayFast, or Paystack.
Who holds the ticket money?
TKKT does not hold it. Paid transactions are processed through the organiser's connected gateway account.
Are payment-provider fees included in R0?
No. Your chosen provider charges its own standard processing rate under its agreement with you.
Has a paid event actually run on R0 TKKT fees?
Yes. Beyond the Dust issued 110 paid tickets and processed R27,500 through the organiser gateway, with R0 TKKT platform fees. See the verified case study.
