How bands get paid
Contracts, setlists, writer pools and the payout ledger.
- Every gig deal is a contract: flat fee, door split or exposure. Door splits use platform ticket figures you can check.
- When the venue marks the gig complete, your pot divides automatically: writer pool off the top (by setlist × writer shares), the rest to performers by your shares.
- Open the contract any time to see who gets what and when it's due.
- Also earn from tips, memberships and streaming plays — tracked on your dashboard and revenue page.
