We characterize the equilibrium when platforms manage user access by setting participation fees for each user group.

We study a two-population strategic queueing game in a double-ended system with nonzero matching times, where agents choose to join or balk. The resulting multi-dimensional state complicates analysis, but it can be shown that one dimension can be omitted in subgame perfect Nash equilibrium. The equilibrium strategies are threshold-based.
