Calculate Markup

  1. Enter the base price (or old price).
  2. Enter the final price with fees (or new price).
  3. Calculate the percentage difference.

Markup Formula:

Markup % = ((Final Price − Base Price) ÷ Base Price) × 100

The Actual Cost of Tickets

Advertised prices rarely match what you pay at checkout. Calculate the "Hidden Fee Percentage" by entering the advertised price as Old Value and the final checkout price as New Value.

Pricing FAQ

Why are ticket fees so high?

Service fees, venue fees, and processing charges are often added on top of the 'face value'. This calculator helps you see the TOTAL percent markup.

What is dynamic pricing?

Dynamic pricing means prices change based on demand (like Uber surge pricing). Airlines and concerts uses this, causing prices to jump 50-100% in minutes.
