Payments
Settle before the doors open, not at one in the morning.
Take money at the door or in advance, split it between venue, artist and platform on terms agreed in writing, and see what has cleared without leaving the event.
How it works
-
Agree the split
Percentages and what they apply to, recorded against the event before anyone plays.
-
Take the money
Card, wallet or cash at the door, all counted against the same event.
-
Pay out
Automatic splits on cleared funds, with a statement each party can read.
The argument is rarely about the percentage.
What it does
- Card and wallet payments
- Online in advance, or on a reader at the door.
- Automatic splits and payouts
- Calculated on the agreed basis, paid without a second conversation.
- Reconciliation per event
- Sales, comps, refunds and cash counted into one figure.
- Cash takings recorded
- Door cash logged against the event so the totals still balance.
- Statements per party
- Venue, artist and promoter each see the same arithmetic.
- Refunds without breaking the count
- A refund adjusts the split rather than the headcount.
The argument is rarely about the percentage
The common dispute is not the split but what it applies to: gross, net of fees, or net of the bar. Writing that down before the event turns settlement into a receipt rather than a negotiation late at night, and where payouts are automatic the argument disappears entirely.
- Basis agreed in advance
- Same numbers for every party
- Cash and card in one total
- Payouts on cleared funds
