Payout is initiated within 2 business days of the sale. Not after the event. That is the cash you use to produce the night.
The artist deposit, the sound company and door security are due before the room opens. A platform that pays you after the event makes you produce the night with your own cash. The audience already paid. You just cannot use it.
Tickean initiates payout of the ticket price within 2 business days of the confirmed sale. The clock starts on the sale, not on show night. We publish the calendar because a payout date you cannot put on a calendar is not a payout date.
Friday lands on Tuesday. A Monday holiday does not count.
The service fee is paid by the buyer. It is not taken off the ticket price.
Deposits and security invoices are due before the room opens.
That day starts the clock. Show night does not.
No weekends, no public holidays. A Monday sale is initiated on Wednesday.
Tickean initiates the payout inside the window. Your bank posts on its own schedule.
The number you publish is the number that is paid out.
This week's sales can pay this week's deposits.
Incomplete identity checks, refunds already made, chargebacks, a specific financial-crime alert.
A business day is a weekday that is not a public holiday. Saturday and Sunday do not count.
A sale confirmed on Monday is initiated on Wednesday: Tuesday is business day 1, Wednesday is business day 2. A sale confirmed on Friday is initiated on the following Tuesday. If Monday is a holiday, that day is skipped.
Tickean initiates the payout inside that window. The hour your bank posts the credit is the bank's. We do not promise the balance is visible the minute the payout is sent.
Presales open weeks before the night. Those weeks are when the deposit and the production invoices are due. A platform that waits until the event is over, and then adds another week, turns presale cash into a loan you made to yourself.
The usual pattern in ticketing is to settle after the event. Tickean does not use the event date. It uses the sale date plus 2 business days. That is a date you can write into a vendor contract. "Fast payouts" is not.
The amount is the ticket price you published, not the service fee. Publish a ticket at $40 and sell 200 of them on Monday: the batch is 200 × $40 = $8,000. The buyer pays the service fee. It is not deducted from the $40. Organizer commission is 0%.
Those Monday sales are initiated on Wednesday. The same $8,000, on a platform that pays after the event, would still be sitting there when the sound invoice is due. The useful comparison is the date, not the adjective.
A sale made while identity checks on the organizer account are still incomplete. An amount already refunded. A chargeback. An amount that has to be held because of a specific financial-crime alert.
Those four cases do not stretch the schedule for everything else. There is no general reserve that waits until the event is over. If a refund or a chargeback shows up after you have been paid, it is deducted from a later payout or repaid.
Tickean pays organizers on the sale, within 2 business days, so the money can pay for the night it belongs to. We do not know another ticketing platform that publishes this as the default — sale date plus 2 business days — instead of a payout after the event. If one does, and the calendar is this specific, this page should say so.
Until then the claim is the calendar itself. In the United States it is 2 business days from the sale. It is the same rule in every country we operate outside Argentina, where the cutoff is daily. Here, count two business days from the day the ticket was bought.
You can put a real date on the deposit because the payout date is a calendar date.
Those invoices are due before doors. Two business days gets there. A post-event payout does not.
Each sale has its own clock. Receipts do not pile up until the last night.
The buyer pays the service fee. See how the ticket price is left with you.
See pricing and fees →Initiated on Tuesday. Saturday and Sunday are not business days. Monday is day 1, Tuesday is day 2. A Monday holiday pushes it one business day.
No. Within 2 business days Tickean initiates the payout. Your bank posts the credit on its own schedule.
Not from the ticket price. That price is yours. The buyer pays the service fee.
No. The ordinary schedule is 2 business days from the sale. Outside it: incomplete identity checks, amounts already refunded, chargebacks, and a specific financial-crime alert.
No. Instant would be the wrong word. The schedule is 2 business days from the confirmed sale, and then your bank's posting time.
If the model fits, create your event in minutes. 0% organizer fee. Payout of the ticket price is initiated within 2 business days of the sale.
