Selling tickets online with Ticket Tailor allows you to get paid directly for your ticket sales.

Ticket funds never touch our bank account. We transfer your ticket money to your online payment processing account (e.g. your Stripe account) directly after a ticket is purchased.

How to take online payments for your ticket sales

  • From your Ticket Tailor dashboard, head to 'Settings' in the top menu, and then select 'Payment systems' from the left-hand menu.

  • From here, you can enable online payments by connecting a payment processor.

    • We recommend connecting a Stripe account (but you can explore alternative payment providers).

    • Click 'Enable online payments' in the 'Online payments (powered by Stripe) section, where a new webpage will open to get started. If you already have a Stripe account, you can use the same email address.

  • Alternatively, you can opt to take payments offline (e.g. via bank transfer or cash on-the-door).

  • To access alternative payment providers and offline payments, click on 'More options including PayPal, Square and offline payments'.

  • You can also use a combination of the above options. Note that each option will determine what your customer sees at the final stage of your checkout.

  • The below shows an example of a checkout page connected to Stripe:
