Default Travelcard vendor commission

...
What percentage of a Travelcard's sale price does the Travelcard vendor
receive as commission?

For example, if I buy a Travelcard from a Tube station as opposed to from

a
National Rail station, how much extra revenue does the Tube receive for
selling me the Travelcard?


Not sure about the commission, but it probably doesn't work out cheaper for
the Tube to sell tickets themselves due to staffing and equipment costs.
