PAYMENTS & SETTLEMENT
Accept event payments in multiple currencies
Does 0% platform fee mean ticketing is free?
No. bagevent takes no percentage of ticket sales, but the selected subscription and Stripe processing charges still apply. Ticket payments go to your own Stripe account. Each event uses one selling currency; each organisation connects one Stripe account. Separate legal entities need separate organisations and Stripe accounts. Stripe is the supported payment provider today.

converted, not a balance
The attendee pays in the currency the ticket was sold in, and the entity is paid in that same currency — no conversion happens on the way. Conversion appears only in the group view, which is a reporting figure, not a balance.

What to look for in event payment processing
Registration software either takes a cut of every ticket and holds the money for you, or connects your own payment account. That choice decides your costs, your cash flow and who the seller is. Six things to check.
- 01
Your own payment account
With bagevent you connect your own Stripe account, so ticket revenue lands with you, payouts follow your Stripe account's schedule, and your organization is the seller on the attendee's card statement.
- 02
What comes off each ticket
bagevent charges 0% platform fee on every plan. The only deduction from an order is Stripe's processing fee, which you can see against each payment in your own Stripe dashboard.
- 03
The payment methods attendees expect
Cards through Stripe, plus other payment methods you turn on in your Stripe account where Stripe supports them. Stripe is the only payment provider today; more payment methods are planned.
- 04
Currencies without surprise conversion
Each event is priced in the currency it sells in; the attendee pays in that currency and it reaches your Stripe account in the same currency, with no conversion at checkout.
- 05
More than one legal entity
Each bagevent organization connects one Stripe account. If several legal entities sell tickets, give each its own organization and Stripe account; one login can switch between them.
- 06
Refunds and reconciliation
Issue full or partial refunds from the order page back to the original payment method; revenue reports split by ticket type and currency, and your Stripe dashboard matches payouts to payments.
Frequently asked questions
Each event is priced in the currency it sells in, so multi-currency ticketing does not mean a live conversion at checkout: the attendee pays in that currency and it reaches your Stripe account in the same currency. How it is converted for payout to your bank is set by your Stripe account.
Yes. Paid conference ticketing runs on your own payment account: event payment processing is connected to your organization's Stripe account, attendees pay in the currency the ticket was sold in, and the money lands in your account. bagevent takes 0% of ticket sales on every plan; the card processing fee goes to Stripe, not to us.
No. bagevent charges 0% platform fee on all plans. You pay only your payment provider's standard processing fee, and ticket revenue settles directly into your own account.
Yes — and with bagevent it is how payments always work. You connect your own Stripe account, which is what allows revenue to reach you directly with no platform cut. Setup is a guided connection flow under Finance → Payment methods. Stripe is the only payment provider today.
Each event is priced in one currency and attendees pay in that currency; bagevent does not convert prices at checkout. If that currency differs from your payout currency, Stripe converts it for payout according to your Stripe account's settings.
Each bagevent organization connects one Stripe account, so each legal entity runs as its own organization with its own Stripe account and bank. One login can belong to several organizations and switch between them; on Enterprise, our team can link them into an organization group.
Issue a full or partial refund from the order detail page. The refund is returned through the original payment method and reporting updates automatically.
Payouts follow your Stripe account's schedule, since the money moves through your own account. Your Stripe dashboard shows which payments each payout includes.
