Every venue manager knows the moment: doors are about to open, fans are lining up, and all you can think is, Please let the ticketing run perfectly tonight.

When the right tools aren’t in place, even the best events can feel chaotic. Sellout was built to remove that stress—giving venues ticketing that works with them, not against them.

We’re all about building connections, boosting growth, and creating unforgettable experiences for venues, organizers, and fans. Here’s why more and more venues are making the switch to Sellout. 

1. No mystery. Just fair ticketing.

Ask any venue manager and they’ll tell you the same thing: ticketing fees can drain profitability faster than anything else. High platform costs, percentage cuts, and unclear fee structures make it difficult to budget, forecast, and properly staff your events.

With Sellout, your revenue stays where it belongs, in your venue.

• 3.5% + $1 platform fee per ticket (paid by the buyer)
  
  

• You keep 100% of the ticket price
  
  

• Stripe processing at 2.9% + $0.30 per order
  
  

• Daily payouts so your cash flow doesn’t get stuck in limbo
  
  

• Free events = zero platform fees

No surprises. No padded service fees. No “premium plan required” fine print. Just transparent pricing that protects your margins and makes your budgeting easier.

2. Real-Time Insights Built for Venue Operations

Most venues don’t just want numbers, they need answers that help them run better nights.

Sellout’s real-time insights give you the kind of data that makes staffing, inventory, marketing, and scheduling simpler:

• Track when ticket sales spike so you can predict demand
  
  

• Understand where your buyers are coming from and what channels convert best
  
  

• Compare show-to-show performance
  
  

• Identify which genres, artists, or event types drive the most revenue
  
  

• See check-in data live so you can adjust staffing or security on the fly

This isn’t data for data’s sake, it’s practical, venue-friendly insights that help you tighten operations without guesswork.

3. Simple, Seamless Event Management (Built for Busy Night-of-Show Teams)

Running events is stressful enough and your ticketing shouldn’t add to the chaos.

Sellout makes your team’s workflow easier from the moment an event is created to the minute doors open:

• Fast event setup (even for recurring shows or multi-day lineups)
  
  

• Assigned seating support
  
  

• A streamlined dashboard that doesn’t require hours of training
  
  

• Mobile check-in that keeps lines moving
  
  

• Automatic synced attendee lists
  
  

• A system your volunteers, staff, and door team can learn in minutes
  
  

When the lobby is packed and the pressure is high, your ticketing will hold you steady with Sellout’s made for success tools.

4. A Better Buying Experience = More Ticket Sales

For venues, a smooth fan experience impacts conversions, line flow, and even how early fans arrive.

Sellout’s checkout is built to reduce friction and increase completed purchases:

• Designed mobile-first (where most fans buy)
  
  

• 10-second repeat-checkout for past Sellout buyers
  
  

• Easy payment options
  
  

• Branded confirmations and reminders that reflect YOUR venue’s identity
  
  

• No surprise fees at the end of checkout
  
  

A better buyer experience means fewer cart drop-offs, fewer “I never got my ticket” emails, and more fans walking through your doors on time.

5. Real Support From People Who Understand Venues

One of the biggest frustrations venues have with ticketing companies? Support that disappears the moment onboarding ends.

Sellout does the opposite:

• Real human support from actual industry-trained staff
  
  

• Fast response times — especially night-of-show
  
  

• Personalized onboarding so your team actually understands the system
  
  

• Guidance on best practices, marketing strategies, and event setup
  
  

• A team that listens and adapts to venue needs

Sellout considers you as partner, and when your doors are opening in 10 minutes, you deserve a support team that answers.

6. Fair, Transparent, and Built for the Future of Live Events

The future of ticketing is about control, control of your data, your brand, your revenue, and your customer relationships.

Sellout gives venues all of that:

• You own your customer data
  
  

• You keep full brand visibility
  
  

• You get transparent, predictable fees
  
  

• You gain a platform that evolves with new features driven by real venue needs

Instead of fighting against your ticketing system, you finally get one built for how modern venues actually operate.
