Fee Transparency

No Fees for Hosts or Artists:
CouchConcerts never charges hosts or artists. Instead, when a guest reserves their spot by donating, they pay a small $2 platform fee.

Where Does the Platform Fee Go?
This fee covers credit card charges, app development, and our efforts to grow the CouchConcerts network. Any profits from this fee are donated to charity.

Donations and Purchases During the Show
Guests tip via cash, Venmo, or however you typically collect. These go straight to the artist from guest.

Payment After the Show
CouchConcerts transfers 100% of the donations made by guests to reserve a seat to the artist via Venmo or Zelle.
