Direct Payouts

Get paid as you sell,
not after the event.

Ticket sales deposit to your own Stripe account on a rolling 2-day basis. While other platforms hold your money until the event is over, Direct Payouts put revenue in your bank while tickets are still selling. Cover the venue, the caterer, and the marketing with money you have already made.

    Why it matters

    Events spend money before they happen

    Deposits, vendors, and marketing all come due before doors open. A platform that pays you afterward turns your event into a loan you make to yourself. Direct Payouts fix the order of operations.

    Months out

    Book the big things

    The venue, the caterer, and the entertainment all want deposits up front.

    • Pay deposits from early-bird revenue
    • Fund marketing while it still moves sales
    • Stop floating costs on a personal card
    Event week

    Cover the day-of costs

    Final balances and last-minute needs land in the busiest week you have.

    • Settle vendor balances before doors
    • Handle surprises without a cash scramble
    • Sell at the door with in-person POS
    After the event

    Close the books in minutes

    Most of your revenue is already in the bank. What is left is paperwork, and it is short.

    • Match payouts to orders with clear reports
    • Reconcile cash and check sales in one place
    • Report real numbers to your board or sponsors
    How it works

    Your sales, your Stripe account, your bank

    Direct Payouts run on Stripe, the payments infrastructure behind millions of businesses. Connect your own account once and revenue flows to it automatically as you sell. We never touch your balance.

    Your own Stripe account

    Sales settle into a Stripe account you own and control, wired to your own bank. Never a platform wallet.

    Rolling 2-day payouts

    Ticket revenue deposits to your bank on a rolling 2-day basis as orders come in, per your Stripe payout settings.

    Accelerated payout options

    Need money moving even faster? Stripe offers accelerated payout options for eligible accounts.

    Automatic, nothing to claim

    No payout requests, no withdraw button to hunt for, no minimums to hit. Deposits simply arrive on schedule.

    Payout and order reports

    Every deposit matches back to its orders and fees, so reconciliation takes minutes instead of an evening.

    Stripe-grade security

    Card data is handled end to end by Stripe, a certified PCI Level 1 provider. Ticket Falcon is a verified Stripe partner.

    One low per-ticket service fee, card processing billed by Stripe, and nothing else. You decide who covers each fee, per event.

    Choose who pays the fees

    Pass fees to your buyers, absorb them yourself, or split them: your call, fee by fee, event by event.

    Questions

    Direct Payouts, answered

    When do I actually get paid?
    As you sell. Ticket revenue deposits to your bank on a rolling 2-day basis through your own Stripe account, per your Stripe payout settings. Eligible accounts can turn on accelerated payout options for even faster access.
    Do you ever hold my money?
    No. Sales settle into a Stripe account you own and control. We never pool your funds in a platform wallet, and we never make you wait until after the event to be paid.
    What do I need to set up?
    A free Stripe account connected to Ticket Falcon. Setup is guided, takes a few minutes, and you only do it once. Every event you run afterward pays out through it automatically.
    Which payment methods can my buyers use?
    All major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Cash App Pay, Link by Stripe, and buy now, pay later installments. You can also accept ACH bank debits for large orders, take cards in person with Stripe Terminal, send invoices, and record cash or check payments.
    What does it cost, and who pays the fees?
    Free events are free. Paid tickets carry one low per-ticket service fee, plus card processing billed by Stripe. You choose who covers each fee: pass it to buyers, absorb it, or split it. The pricing page has current rates and an interactive calculator that shows your exact net.
    Can I take payments at the door?
    Yes. Give door and box-office staff an event-scoped POS link and take tap-to-pay or card payments with Stripe Terminal readers. Cash and check sales can be recorded so the night still reconciles in one place.
    How do refunds work?
    Issue full or partial refunds in a click from your dashboard, individually or in bulk. You can also publish your own refund policy on the event page so expectations are clear up front.

    Your revenue, on your schedule.
