Payouts and fees

The fee

Weeknights takes 5% of each paid ticket. That is the only fee: Stripe's card processing is paid out of it, so you never pay Stripe separately.

To cover processing on small orders, the fee is at least €0.30 + 1.9% per order. If 5% works out lower than that, the minimum applies. This mostly affects cheap tickets.

Some early clubs have a lower promotional rate.

Free events are always free.

Example

For a €20 ticket:

• Ticket price: €20.00
• Weeknights fee (5%): €1.00
• You receive: €19.00

When you set a ticket price, the price screen shows the breakdown for your event: what the guest pays, the estimated Stripe fee, the Weeknights fee and what you receive.

When you get paid

Money from each event is held until the event is over, then paid out to your bank 48 hours after the event ends. Payouts are in euros.

Holding the money until the event has happened means refunds for a cancelled event can always be paid back.

Tracking your money

Click Payments in your host dashboard sidebar:

• Earnings: a chart of what you have been paid out and what is still held until the event
• Payouts: one row per event, with the payout date, tickets, status, gross, fee and payout
• Download report exports the table

Payout statuses:

• Held: the event hasn't ended yet, or ended less than 48 hours ago
• In transit: on its way to your bank
• Received: in your bank
• Payout failed: Stripe couldn't pay into your bank account. Check your bank details in Stripe.

Refunds and fees

When you refund a ticket the attendee gets the full price back and the Weeknights fee is returned to you.

VAT

If you charge VAT, set your VAT rate on the Payments page. It applies to events you create from then on, and buyers see the VAT at checkout. See VAT on ticket sales. You are still responsible for reporting your income and paying any tax due. Ask a tax adviser if you are unsure.
