Fees
Ticket fee
This fee will be added to the ticket sale price which are bought online, by online we mean that are not purchased via a point of sale account.
Lets take an example:
1.
Lets say you set the ticket fee to 1.5$
2.
An event is on sale for 10$ a ticket
3.
An attendee adds two tickets to his cart for this event 
4.
The checkout form will indicate that the attendee has to pay 23$ (10$ * 2 + 1.5$ * 2)
5.
Now when the organizer request a payout after this sale, the information will indicate that he will be requesting a payout with amount of 20$, the other 3$ that the attendee paid are your revenue as the owner of the platform
You can disable the additional fees paid by attendees by setting 0 in this parameter
Internally, this fee is saved when an organizer creates a new event date ticket
Please note that if you edit this fee, it will be applied to event tickets created after saving the parameter and will not affect event ticket already created
This fee does not apply for free tickets
Ticket price percentage cut
This percentage will be deducted from each ticket sold online, upon organizer payout request, this percentage will be taken from each ticket sold online.
Lets take an example:
1.
Lets say you set the ticket price percentage cut to 10%
2.
An event is on sale for 10$ a ticket
3.
An attendee adds three tickets to his cart for this event 
4.
The checkout form will indicate that the attendee has to pay 30$ (10$ * 3)
5.
Now when the organizer request a payout after this sale, the information will indicate that he will be requesting a payout with amount of 27$, the other 3$ are your revenue as the owner of the platform and are calculated this way: (10% out of 10$) = 1$ * 3
You can disable the percentage cut that is paid by organizers by setting 0 in this parameter
Internally, this fee is saved when an organizer creates a new event date ticket
Please note that if you edit this fee, it will be applied to event tickets created after saving the parameter and will not affect event ticket already created
This fee does not apply for free tickets
