The transaction fee applies per order not per ticket. If you purchase six tickets, you only pay one transaction fee.
The transaction fee will vary depending on what type of postage we are being asked to use by the event organiser and these costs are reflective of the amount that See are charged by despatch companies. First class post and Registered Post prices will vary accordingly.
