The Essentials of Real-Time Tour and Attraction Booking
Tour operators and visitor attractions rely on precise scheduling. The core challenge is managing capacity across multiple daily time slots and ensuring real-time availability to prevent double bookings. Traditional booking platforms often lack the flexibility for guided tours, or charge high commissions that cut into the thin margins of a local attraction. You need a system that minimizes admin and maximizes visitor flow.
Simple, honest pricing
Organisers pay 3% on paid tickets. Buyers pay a 60p booking fee plus card processing.
Registered charities pay no platform fee. Free events are free.
Buyer price includes the 60p booking fee and card processing (2.9% + 20p per order), assuming one ticket per order. Orders with several tickets cost buyers less.
Eventbrite comparison uses its UK fee of 6.95% + 59p per paid ticket, added at checkout by default. Prices correct as of October 2026.
