Three kinds of ticket
No card taken and no fee. Somebody books, gets a ticket by email, and holds a place.
A price you set, taken by card through Stripe and paid into your own account.
A suggested minimum you choose. Set it to zero and it becomes pay what you can.
Capacity
The seat count is held in the database, not in the page. When two people reach for the last two seats at the same moment, the second one is told there is one left rather than both being sold the same chair.
Seats are held from the moment a booking starts, not only when it is paid, so a card sitting in 3-D Secure does not lose its place.
What the buyer sees
A count appears once twenty or fewer remain, and the tier closes itself when the last one goes.
Checkout
Name, email and, if you want it, a mobile number. Nothing else is asked unless you ask it.
The money
Connected in a few minutes. Payouts go to your bank on Stripe's normal schedule, and we never hold your funds.
The card is entered into Stripe's own payment element. Nothing sensitive touches our servers.
All in, card processing included. Nothing monthly, and nothing at all in a month you sell nothing.
After the sale
Every booking gets a confirmation with the details, a QR ticket and a short reference. A reminder goes out the day before, another two hours ahead with the QR again, and a thank-you afterwards. None of it needs you.
You get told too: an email on the first booking, and again as the room passes half full, four fifths and sold out.
