The short answer
TickPick is almost always cheaper on total price because it charges no buyer fees — the number you see is the number you pay. StubHub adds fees at checkout that typically run 10–25% of the ticket price. StubHub’s advantage is the larger inventory and a longer track record.
Fees compared
StubHub shows a lower sticker price on many listings, but the fee added at checkout closes and usually reverses that gap. On a $150 ticket, StubHub’s fees can add $20–35. TickPick’s $150 ticket costs $150.
When to use each
- Buy on TickPick when the same seats are listed on both — you keep the fee savings.
- Buy on StubHub when it has a listing TickPick doesn’t, especially for sold-out events.
Compare both for your exact event before checking out — the totals shift listing by listing.
