more goes to you instead of to fees on 300 tickets, at the price your guests already pay on Posh, before sales tax.
In Texas, Vessa adds the sales tax at checkout and pays it to the state. On a platform that does not collect it, you owe it yourself.

How these are worked outPublished US rates, October 2026
The figure is how much more of each ticket goes to you instead of to fees when your guest pays the same total here as they pay there. Comparisons use each platform’s own published rates as of October 2026: Eventbrite 3.7% + $1.79 a ticket plus 2.9% payment processing; Posh 10% + $0.99 a ticket. These are standard published US rates only; a plan, discount or negotiated rate is not counted. Fees change, and that date is when we last checked them. Eventbrite and Posh are trademarks of their owners; Vessa is not affiliated with either. You can absorb our fee instead if you want a round number at the door.

Questions
What is Vessa Tickets?
Vessa Tickets is an event ticketing platform for parties, club nights and other events in the United States. Promoters sell tickets with a link, and guests buy with no account and no app. It runs in a web browser and in the Vessa app on iPhone and Android. It is made by Vessa Technologies LLC, a Texas company.
What does Vessa Tickets cost?
Vessa Tickets is free to set up, with no monthly fee and no minimum term. The fee is 5% + $0.95 a ticket, card processing included, and free tickets are free. The promoter chooses whether guests pay the fee or it comes out of the ticket price.
Does Vessa Tickets take cards at the door?
Yes. The door phone takes contactless cards with Tap to Pay on iPhone, in the Vessa Organizer app, with no card reader to buy. It sells door tickets, items or any amount typed in, up to $500 a charge. It needs a supported iPhone.
When does Vessa Tickets pay out?
As tickets sell. The promoter’s share of each card sale goes to their Stripe account on the next payout run, with nothing to request, once Stripe has verified them and the organizer agreement is accepted. 10% of each sale is held until 24 hours after the night. Before a new promoter’s first clean night (a night with 10 paying guests scanned in at the door, $200 and no chargebacks) it is up to $500 a week, and the rest after the night. Stripe then pays their bank on its own schedule, usually 2 to 4 business days after it reaches their Stripe account; a new Stripe account’s very first payout can take Stripe 7 to 14 days.
The fine print
Payouts. Your share of every card sale goes to your Stripe account on the next payout run after it is paid, once Stripe has verified you and you have accepted the organizer agreement. Nobody at Vessa has to approve it. 10% of each sale is held until 24 hours after the night. Until you have had one clean night on Vessa (as the organizer agreement defines it), up to $500 a week goes out before a night and the rest after it. If a bank reports a stolen card on one of your sales, that order may be refunded and for the next 30 days you are paid only after each night. Stripe then pays your bank on its own schedule, usually 2 to 4 business days after it reaches your Stripe account; a new Stripe account’s very first payout can take Stripe 7 to 14 days. A refund or chargeback on money already sent comes back out of your Stripe balance. Vessa can pause payouts in the cases the organizer agreement lists; pauses are usually reviewed within 24 hours.
Door sales. Tap to Pay on iPhone needs the Vessa iPhone app on a supported iPhone and is limited to $500 a charge; until a new account’s payouts are verified by Stripe, door card sales are limited to $1,000 a sale and $25,000 in any 24 hours. On card sales Vessa’s fee is 5% + $0.50 on an item sale of $5 or less, and the usual ticket fee on a bigger item sale, on door tickets and on typed amounts, taken from the price. Vessa takes no fee from cash. Scanning works in the web browser of any phone with a camera, signed in with the door link and code. Tap to Pay on iPhone requires a supported payment app and the latest version of iOS. Update to the latest version by going to Settings > General > Software Update. Tap Download and Install. Some contactless cards may not be accepted by your payment app. Transaction limits may apply. Apple Pay, Apple Wallet, Tap to Pay on iPhone and iPhone are trademarks of Apple Inc., and Google Pay of Google LLC.
