The short version

  • Each has a real cost: PriceLabs the market dashboard is a separate subscription from the pricing engine, so the widely quoted 19.99 figure is not what most serious users pay per listing.; TicketingHub the 3 per cent applies to cash and walk-up sales recorded in the system, not only to online bookings, which operators frequently miss and which makes on-site revenue more expensive than expected.
  • They diverge on capability: PriceLabs covers Dynamic nightly pricing, TicketingHub covers No monthly fee.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

PriceLabs

  • The market dashboard is a separate subscription from the pricing engine, so the widely quoted 19.99 figure is not what most serious users pay per listing.
  • The revenue share alternative at one per cent of bookings is a poor deal for high average daily rate properties, where it can cost several times the per-listing price.
  • Market data quality collapses in destinations with few tracked listings, which is precisely where an owner has the least pricing intuition of their own.
  • It will happily discount to zero margin if the base price and minimum are set carelessly, and the tool does not know your cost base, so an inattentive user can lose money faster than they would manually.
  • It prices but does not distribute or manage; you still need a PMS or channel manager underneath, and rate push failures between the two systems are a recurring support burden.

TicketingHub

  • The 3 per cent applies to cash and walk-up sales recorded in the system, not only to online bookings, which operators frequently miss and which makes on-site revenue more expensive than expected.
  • At meaningful volume the model is expensive: a hundred thousand pounds of ticket revenue costs three thousand pounds a year, well above what a subscription platform with a lower booking fee would charge.
  • The 3 per cent excludes card processing, so the total take on each ticket is materially higher than the headline rate implies.
  • Enterprise discounts exist but are negotiated privately, so the published price is not the price for anyone with scale and there is no way to benchmark what a good deal looks like.
  • The product is a ticketing engine rather than an operations platform, with limited resource scheduling, customer relationship tooling and reseller management compared with the larger competitors.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

PriceLabs: What does PriceLabs cost for ten listings?

Around 19.99 US dollars per listing per month at that volume for dynamic pricing, plus about 9.99 per market for the dashboard if you want the competitor data.

TicketingHub: What does TicketingHub cost?

There is no subscription. It takes 3 per cent of every successful booking, plus your card processing separately.

PriceLabs: Should I take the one per cent revenue share instead?

Only if your average nightly rate and occupancy are low. On a listing earning 40,000 dollars a year the revenue share costs roughly 400 dollars against about 240 for the per-listing plan.

TicketingHub: Does the 3 per cent apply to cash sales?

Yes. It applies across the board, including cash and in-person walk-up sales entered into the system, which is the detail most operators overlook.

PriceLabs: Does it work for hotels?

It connects to Cloudbeds and similar systems and is used by small properties, but it is built around rental demand signals rather than hotel segmentation and forecasting.

TicketingHub: At what volume does a subscription platform become cheaper?

Roughly once ticket revenue passes about fifty thousand pounds a year, where 3 per cent begins to exceed a typical monthly subscription plus a lower booking fee.

PriceLabs: Can I override the algorithm?

Extensively. Base price, minimum and maximum, seasonal profiles and day-of-week adjustments are all directly editable and reusable across a portfolio.

TicketingHub: Can I negotiate the rate?

Yes for high volume. Enterprise rates are available but are not published, so you will need to ask directly.
