SHWDWN vs Ticket Tailor

Ticket Tailor

Ticket Tailor is the budget option. A flat £0.60 per-ticket fee, no monthly cost, and a basic event page builder — that's the whole product. It's built for village halls, hobbyist meet-ups, and one-off community events where you just need a form to sell a few tickets. There's no combat sports affiliation, no live streaming, no fan app, no discovery, and the UI feels dated compared to platforms built for professional promoters. If you run real events more than a few times a year, you'll outgrow it fast.

What Ticket Tailor doesn't do

  • No combat sports affiliation or credibility — built for generic hobbyist events
  • No PPV or live streaming — pure ticketing only
  • No event discovery or marketplace — zero inbound traffic, you drive every sale yourself
  • No fight card, fighter portal, or any combat sports features
  • No customer management, email marketing, or retention tools
  • No fan-facing mobile app — only a basic check-in scanner for staff
  • No fighter attribution or payout splitting
  • Dated UI/UX — looks and feels like a basic ticket form, not a professional event platform
  • Designed for low-volume, infrequent events — you'll outgrow it fast if you run regular shows

Who is Ticket Tailor for?

Village halls, charity fundraisers, hobbyist meet-ups, and one-off community events — anyone running a handful of tickets a few times a year

If you need more than just ticketing — PPV streaming, fighter management, a promoter dashboard, and a dedicated app for your fans — SHWDWN is built for that.
