Use cases

Built for every kind of event

DoorSplit started with live music, but the same simple ticketing, door management, and automatic payouts work for just about any ticketed gathering — from a house show to a charity gala.

Who it's for

One platform, many kinds of events

Whatever you're hosting, the workflow is the same: create, sell, scan, and get paid.

Independent artists

Your next show, sold out early

Playing a bar, house show, or listening room? Share one link, sell advance tickets, and scan people in from your phone. Get paid automatically the day after.

Wineries, breweries & restaurants

Live music with a built-in split

Hosting a band at your winery or taproom? Sell tickets under your own brand and split the door with the performers automatically — no cash counting at the end of the night.

Event promoters

Any gathering, one platform

Networking nights, mixers, pop-ups, or multi-act bills — set tiered pricing, add collaborators, and pay everyone their share. Reward your best sellers with per-ticket commissions.

Venues

Ticketing you actually own

Running events week after week? Embed checkout on your own site, manage the door from any phone, and keep 100% of face value while splitting fairly with the acts you host.

Fundraisers & nonprofits

Raise more for your cause

Benefit concerts, charity dinners, and galas. Sell tickets, add sponsors or partners as collaborators, and route proceeds to the right place — with a clean record of every sale.

Donation campaigns

Collect donations with no show at all

Not every fundraiser has a door. Run an open-ended campaign with just a name and an image, let supporters choose their own amount, and split what comes in with the same collaborator percentages you'd use on a show.

Cultural & community events

Bring your community together

Cultural celebrations, film screenings, workshops, and city events. Simple pre-sale tickets, guest passes for VIPs and press, and mobile check-in that keeps the line moving.

B2B & reseller partners

Sell through partners at scale

Touring promoters, group-sales agencies, subscription desks, and resellers. Grant partner orgs a block of inventory at a net rate or commission, and let them sell with their own tracked links and promo codes.

The same tools, every time

Everything you need, whatever the event

New · AI event creation

Set up any event in a sentence

New to ticketing or just in a hurry? Describe your event the way you'd text a friend — the venue, doors and show times, ticket prices, who's playing — and DoorSplit's AI drafts the whole thing for you to review and publish.

  • Understands venue, date, door/show times, and prices
  • Writes a clean description and sets up pricing tiers
  • Flags anything it still needs, like a missing date
  • You always review and edit before it goes live

New · B2B & reseller partners

Sell through partners — without losing control

Bigger productions rarely sell every ticket direct. DoorSplit lets you hand a block of inventory to another organization — a touring promoter, group-sales agency, subscription desk, or reseller — while you keep sole ownership of the event, tiers, and pricing.

Partners are just organizations, so there's no separate signup — anyone can create an org and be added as a reseller.

  • Grant allocations at a net rate (they keep the spread) or on commission
  • Partners issue tickets or bulk-buy to resell — you're never oversold
  • Per-partner tracked links and promo codes, with automatic attribution
  • Unsold inventory auto-releases back to your public on-sale before showtime
  • Partners manage it signed in, or with an org API key portal

Allocations

Reserve a quantity on any tier for a partner. Public availability updates instantly; the block auto-releases at your cutoff.

Tracked links & promo codes

Partners share a branded link or code; every sale is credited to them and reconciled on a running statement.

New · Donation campaigns

Raise money without running a show

A donation campaign is an event with the show removed. There's no date, venue, or capacity — just a name, an image, and a page where supporters give whatever they want. Nobody gets a ticket; they get a thank-you email.

Everything else works exactly like a ticketed event, including the collaborator splits you already understand.

  • Suggested amounts, a custom amount box, and an optional fundraising goal
  • Split every donation with collaborators by percentage, automatically
  • Add someone as a revenue-only collaborator — they get paid, not access
  • Cover the processing fee yourself so the full gift reaches the cause
  • Donors can add a message or give anonymously
  • Embed the campaign on your own site with the same widget

Supporters pick the amount

Offer quick-pick amounts, let people type their own, or both. Set a goal and the page shows a progress bar as it fills.

Pay out whenever you want

A campaign never really ends, so payouts repeat. Release funds on demand, on a weekly or monthly schedule, or when you close the campaign. Each run pays out only what came in since the last one.
