Tickets, check‑in and payouts
Sell tiered tickets, scan QR codes at the door and get paid through Stripe Connect, all in the ESCAPE app. Free events cost nothing to run.
Five tools for one event
Tickets here, payouts there, and the door list in a spreadsheet.
Eventbrite for tickets, Stripe for payouts, Google Forms for sign-ups, a spreadsheet at the door and WhatsApp for updates. None of them talk to each other, so you copy names between tabs and still lose track of who paid and who came. In ESCAPE the people who bought, the people on the waitlist and the people at the door are one list.
From draft to door
Three stages, all in the app you already run the event from.
Create the event
First, set the date, the place and the tiers, each with its own price and capacity. Add refund rules and a registration form if you need them. A free event takes about two minutes.
The ticket tiers of a sample event as the organizer sets them: each tier's price and spots, and who pays the fees. Sell tickets
Then, attendees pay by card through Stripe. By default the fees are added at checkout, so every ticket pays you its full price. Promo codes and a waitlist run themselves.
The sample event's page as a guest sees it: its ticket tiers, the price with fees, and Get tickets. Check people in
On the night, scan each ticket’s single-use QR code with the app. The count updates as people arrive, and the attendee list exports to CSV afterwards.

What it costs
- Free events are free. No monthly fee, no plan.
- On a paid ticket the attendee pays a 5% ESCAPE service fee plus card processing (2.9% + 30¢ in CAD and USD).
- Both are calculated on the total charge, not on the ticket price, so a CA$30.00 ticket comes to CA$32.90.
- The charge is grossed up so the organizer receives 100% of the ticket price.
