1. What are fees for?
With our fee option, you can break up the price of your ticket in several categories.
The main benefit of this feature is to file your income excluding all fees, thereby reducing your taxable income with organisations such as PRS for Music, PPL, etc.
Your accounts display everything you need to file your return easily: you will find the breakdown of your income with and without fees in a new table called “Revenues”. Your fees for each ticket category will be details in a dedicated table for each sale (made using Weezevent and direct sales).
2. How to set-up fees in my ticket types?
To enable this option, please go to your Weezevent interface on Configure > Ticket types and selling > Edit a ticket type and click on + fees.
Example
You plan to sell tickets for 20$. You add:
- "management fees" for 1$
- "production fees" for 1$ also
Your customer will pay 22$.
You will be paid 21.01$ (22$ minus Weezevent’s 0.99$ fee).
You can either display the details of the fees to your buyer or not: on the sales module, in the order email and on the ticket.
For your information, the ticketing option “display fees” becomes “display commissions and fees” for the customer. The whole thing is therefore grouped under the umbrella of “commission and service fees”.
Here is an example of an invoice received by the customer after purchase:
