Charity event pricing
Spool does not charge a platform fee for registered charity events. Stripe fees still apply. Print credit is not included.
Earn print credit as you sell
The more you sell, the more credit you earn back towards print & marketing.
We recommend absorbing the booking fee where possible. It keeps pricing cleaner for your customers and unlocks print credit to help promote your event.
EARN FASTER PAYOUTS AS YOU GROW
Our progressive payout model rewards you
We release a portion of your ticket revenue during sales instantly - with the remaining balanced released 72hrs after your event.
