01
Quicket is an established South African ticketing marketplace. Its public site and event listings describe a per-ticket service fee, and many listings state that advertised prices exclude additional booking, service, or processing fees charged by the ticket service provider.

We do not state a Quicket percentage or rand-per-ticket amount here because their dedicated pricing URL was not available on the review date. If you already sell on Quicket, the fee that matters is the one on your next checkout.

Your Yoco, PayFast, or Paystack card-processing rate. That is the provider's fee, not a TKKT booking fee.

Example: 120 tickets at R200 is R24,000 face value.
Use the figure Quicket shows you. Do not use a number from a blog or from this page.
That remainder is what a marketplace fee would have removed before your own card processing.
Card processing still applies through your gateway. There is no second TKKT booking fee on top.
04
If you rely on Quicket's public marketplace to find attendees you do not already have, their discovery audience may be worth their service fee. TKKT is built for organisers who already bring a WhatsApp, Instagram, residence, or community crowd.
TKKT is newer (2026) and does not match Quicket's brand recognition with attendees. That is a real tradeoff, not a footnote.
