Ticketing Overview

Band Account has a built-in ticketing system that lets you sell tickets to your shows, collect payment directly into your bank account via Stripe, and manage door entry with a mobile QR scanner — all without paying fees to a third-party ticketing platform.

How it works

Here's the end-to-end flow:

1. Connect your Stripe account (one-time setup) so you can receive payments

2. Enable ticketing on any show and create ticket types (General Admission, VIP, Early Bird, etc.)

3. Share the public show page link with fans — they can buy tickets without creating an account

4. Buyers receive a confirmation email with a 'View Ticket' link

5. The ticket page displays a QR code the buyer shows at the door

6. Use the in-app scanner on any phone to scan tickets and check in guests

7. Track sales, revenue, and check-in rates on the Ticket Sales Dashboard

What does it cost?

Band Account charges a 2.5% platform fee on each ticket sale. Standard Stripe processing fees also apply (typically 1.4% + 30p for UK cards). There are no monthly fees or setup costs for ticketing — you only pay when you sell.

Requirements

To sell tickets you need: an active Band Account subscription, a completed Stripe Connect onboarding (takes around 5 minutes), and a show marked as public with ticketing enabled.
