Money questions
Clear before you commit.
Only when a paid ticket sells or a protected professional booking is confirmed. There is no subscription or listing fee, and free events cost nothing to run.
Sales settle to the Tiqstar balance. Available earnings can be withdrawn to the supported bank or mobile-money account on the payout profile, with no Tiqstar payout fee.
The eligible ticket value returns to the buyer. Payment processors generally do not return their processing fee, so that portion may not be recoverable.
No. There is no subscription tier to outgrow and no plan limit on events, tickets or guests.
The event can either absorb eligible fees or pass them on. The final total remains visible before the buyer pays.
