For organisers
Choose a sale type
Fixed-price tickets, sealed or open auctions, ballots, free events, and pay-what-you-want.
Buy Now (fixed price)
Standard ticket sales at a set price through Stripe. Configure capacity on each purchase option and publish when ready.
Sealed bid auction
Bidders submit private bids of at least £1.00 per ticket. At close, Biddly ranks bids and winners pay their own bid. You can set an optional reserve (also at least £1.00) and guide price, and offer unsold tickets to runner-up bidders.
Open bid auction
Same pay-your-bid allocation as sealed, but buyers see a live minimum winning price while the auction is open. There is no public leaderboard of named bidders. Bids still start at £1.00 per ticket.
Ballot
Buyers enter before the ballot closes. Winners are drawn at close; paid winners are charged after the draw. Free ballots can use your complimentary quota.
Complimentary and pay-what-you-want
Free (£0) register-style events use your monthly complimentary quota and do not charge a platform fee on free tickets within that allowance. Pay-what-you-want lets buyers choose an amount on a Buy Now option — £0 follows the complimentary path. Paid amounts must be at least £1.00 so the card charge can succeed.
Check Organisation details for your current free-event quota. See the ticket pricing guide for UK all-in price rules.
