Bring the house down. We'll handle the door.
You run the show—the lights, the crowd, the moment everyone remembers. We run the box office: ticket sales straight to your bank, one flat 5% fee shown before anyone pays, and a patron list that stays yours.
- Your money, your timeline
Ticket sales go straight to your bank account. No waiting weeks for a marketplace to release funds you've already earned from sold-out shows.
- Flat 5% — nothing hidden
One box office fee. Pass it to patrons as a clear line item or absorb it into your ticket price. No stacked service, processing, or facility fees at checkout.
- Your patrons, yours alone
Buyer names and emails belong to your venue. We don't share your attendee list with other venues or sell patron data to marketers.
Fee realism on a $50 ticket
Stacked service fees and default “tips” inflate checkout. One honest line item is easier to explain to patrons and your bookkeeper.
| Provider | Patron pays | Our fee | What you should know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Eventbrite-style stacks | $55.09 | $5.09 | Service, processing, and facility fees layered at checkout |
| Zeffy tipping trap (15%) | $57.50 | $7.50 | “Free” checkout with a pre-selected 15% tip to the vendor |
| yourboxoffice.net | $52.50 | $2.50 | Flat 5.0% box office fee — pass through or absorb |
