Built in the scene
We're not a national platform that discovered the queer dollar.
Built by the scene, for the scene. Slayne is gay-owned and built in Chicago — not a national ticketing giant taking its cut from a boardroom three time zones away. We're in these rooms. We throw these parties. We built the tool we wished existed: one place for the weekend, and a fair deal for the people who make the night.
Keep 100% of every ticket. Keep it in the community.
Pricing
Honest pricing. No surprises.
3% + $1
Slayne's platform fee — 3% + $1 per ticket, covered by the buyer (plus standard card processing). You keep the full price you set.
| Ticket price | You receive | Buyer pays |
|---|---|---|
| $5.00 | $5.00 | $6.65 |
| $20.00 | $20.00 | $22.56 |
| $50.00 | $50.00 | $54.38 |
You receive the full ticket price, deposited to your bank. Buyers cover the 3% + $1 platform fee plus card processing (~2.9% + 30¢) at checkout — for US standard cards the numbers above are exact.
You keep it all
Slayne
3% + $1 per ticket
Eventbrite
3.7% + $1.79 per ticket
Posh
~10–13% all-in
Buyers also cover standard card processing (~2.9% + 30¢) on every platform — on Slayne it's buyer-paid, so you keep your full price.
Lower fees than Eventbrite & Posh — which means your fans pay less, so you sell more.
Competitor fees as of May 2026.

Questions
What hosts ask before signing up.
When do payouts hit my bank?
Stripe's standard schedule — typically 2 business days after each charge for established accounts, and 7 days for your first payout while Stripe verifies the account. Exact dates show in your Stripe Express dashboard.
What happens with refunds?
The buyer's payment is refunded. Because the buyer covers Slayne's 3% + $1 fee at checkout — not you — you're never out of pocket for our fee on a refunded ticket. Stripe's processing fee on the original charge is non-refundable, per Stripe's policy.
Do I need a business or LLC to sell?
No. Stripe Express supports individual sole-proprietor accounts — just your name, SSN for tax reporting, and a bank account. You can list under a business name if you have one.
How long does setup take?
About 10–15 minutes for first-time hosts, mostly Stripe's KYC step. Every event after that uses the same Stripe account and skips onboarding entirely.
Are there any minimums or contracts?
None. Sell one ticket or a thousand. No upfront cost, no monthly fee, no exclusivity — you're free to list elsewhere too.
