Built in Birmingham.
Built for community.
Matter Tickets started with a simple belief: local events are where communities come alive, and the platforms that power them should give something back.
Ticketing that does more than sell tickets.
Most ticketing platforms are extractive. They charge organizers and attendees as much as the market will bear, and none of it goes back to the neighborhoods where those events happen.
We built Matter Tickets to change that. Organizers keep 100% of their ticket price. Buyers pay a small fee on top, and after covering our costs, every dollar left goes to food banks and classroom supply funds.
Community-first
A portion of every ticket fee automatically funds food banks and classroom supply programs.
Transparent pricing
No hidden fees, no surprise charges. Buyers see the full breakdown before they pay, and organizers always receive their full ticket price.
Independent organizers
We're built for the people who organize markets, concerts, comedy shows, theatre, festivals, and workshops, whether you're a solo organizer or a large operation.
What we believe
These aren't values we put on a slide deck. They're the decisions we make every day.
Events are infrastructure
Farmers markets, comedy shows, theatre nights, music, and neighborhood festivals hold communities together. They deserve better tools.
Small fees, big impact
Even a 2.1% community fee adds up quickly when events happen every week. We want those dollars to stay local.
Simple beats clever
Organizers shouldn't need a manual. If a feature makes things complicated, we cut it.
