ticket fees
Added purchase charges
Ticket fees are the additional charges added to the base price when purchasing tickets, especially for concerts, sporting events, or travel.
These fees—service fees, convenience fees, processing fees—often appear only at checkout and can significantly inflate the final cost: The tickets were $50 each, but the ticket fees pushed it to $75.
The term usually carries a note of complaint about hidden or excessive charges.
