Launch checklist

The order matters: payout readiness first, then publish, then door operations and settlement.

1

Create your event

Add the title, date, city, venue, category, cover image, and ticket tiers. You can keep it as a draft until the event is ready.

2

Connect Stripe

Connect a payout account once. Paid events need payout readiness before publishing so money can move cleanly after orders come in.

3

Publish and promote

Go live, share the event link, and help people find your event through Urba discovery surfaces for your city.

4

Run the door

Invite door staff, open the scanner, use offline check-in when the venue has bad signal, and sync when reconnected.

5

Review settlement

After the event, use settlement reporting to see tickets, fees, taxes, reserves, refunds, collaborator splits, and payout state.

Before publishing

  • Event setup, ticket tiers, venue details, categories, cover images
  • Stripe Connect readiness and payout-account requirements
  • Fee mode choice: pass-through or absorb

During sales

  • Promo codes, guest lists, waitlists, group deals, and affiliates
  • Attendee questions, order lookup, refunds, and transfers
  • Sales, source, and sell-through analytics

Event day

  • Door staff permissions and scanner access
  • Offline QR scanning and manual lookup
  • Capacity checks, re-entry policy, and edge-case overrides

After the event

  • Settlement reporting and partner reconciliation
  • Refund requests, reserves, and transfer reversal handling
  • Tax summaries and exportable attendee/reporting data
