Simple Process

How It Works

Get started selling tickets in just a few simple steps

YourBoxOffice is an online box office solution that helps you manage event ticketing efficiently and easily. Register your school, theatre, dance company, festival, charity or other organisation to create your producer account. Set up events, with or without a seating plan. Give your audience the ability to purchase tickets 24/7 with the convenience of online payments.

Direct Payments

Bookers pay with credit or debit card. Ticket revenue is paid directly into your bank account - no waiting days after the last performance. For schools using ParentPay, money goes directly into your ParentPay account.

E-Tickets

Save on printing costs with e-tickets. Bookers simply print their ticket or show it on a smartphone. For phone bookings, your team can see available seats, allocate them instantly, and arrange payment.

Instant Reports

Booking reports are instantly available showing seats sold, prices charged, total revenue received and more. Track your event performance in real-time.

Phone Bookings Made Easy

For customers who prefer to call, your sales team can:

  • See immediately what seats are available
  • Instantly allocate seats - blocking others from buying them
  • Arrange payment by cash, cheque, or on the door

Prefer No Upfront Cost? Try Pay As You Go

Use Stripe payments without purchasing credits. A flat 4.5% + 20p per transaction covers everything — no annual fees, no credit bundles needed. Switch on or off any time from your account.

Get Started

What does a real production cost? A worked example

Say your school or society stages a production in a 300-seat hall over two sold-out performances, with tickets at £8. That is 600 tickets and £4,800 in ticket revenue. On the Starter plan you pay £90 +VAT for the event, plus card processing of 2.7% + 20p per transaction — roughly £170 across a typical 200 bookings. All-in, that is around £280 — about 6% of revenue — with no booking fees added to your audience's tickets and the money paid directly to your bank account as tickets sell. Prefer no upfront cost? Pay As You Go charges a flat 4.5% + 20p per transaction instead, and nothing else.

Figures are illustrative; card processing varies slightly with basket size.

FAQ

Selling tickets online — your questions answered

How do I sell tickets online for my event?

Register your organisation free, set up your event with or without a reserved seating plan, and share your booking link. Your audience can buy 24/7 and receive e-tickets instantly, while your team can also take phone and door sales.

What does it cost to sell tickets online?

There are no monthly fees. Choose a plan from £90 +VAT for a single event up to £400 +VAT per year for unlimited events, or use Pay As You Go with no upfront cost at a flat 4.5% + 20p per transaction.

How and when do I get paid for ticket sales?

Card payments are paid directly to your own bank account via Stripe as tickets sell — you are not left waiting until after the last performance. Schools using ParentPay receive the money straight into their ParentPay account.

Can I sell tickets for a school play or concert?

Yes. Your Box Office is built for schools: ParentPay integration lets parents pay through the platform they already use, e-tickets remove printing costs, and staff can allocate seats for phone or in-person bookings.

Do my customers pay a booking fee?

No booking fee is added at checkout — the ticket price you set is exactly what your audience pays.

Can I use a reserved seating plan?

Yes. The seating plan builder is included on every plan, so your audience can choose their exact seats, and your box office team can see and allocate available seats in real time. Perfect for theatre groups of any size.
