Our audience generally sees flat fees as arbitrary and punitive. We'd like to pass only the Eventive, Stripe and CineSend fees onto the customer and retain the advertised ticket price before fees from which we would then remit our taxes and calculate our distributor split. Correct me if I'm wrong, but under the current model (lets use a $10 CDN ticket as the example) and add $1.49 for Eventive and Stripe and $1.29 for CineSend, Eventive then applies and deducts fees from $12.78 (for a total of deducted fees of $2.92) leaving the festival with only $9.86 before taxes and splits. It's a small difference, but multiplied across the entire festival it adds up. Also, in this model I'm using a single ticket price, but if we have a more expensive ticket and there is a flat fee set by a more common & lower ticket price, we're going to be losing more when the Eventive & Stripe fees are deducted. Sorry about the nickel and diming, but it's that kind of year.
