Multi-entity settlement
Common challenges
One brand, several companies
Parent, chapters, and country entities all sell tickets under one programme — mixing their bank accounts is an audit problem waiting to happen.
Currency and entity have to match
A Singapore dollar ticket should not land in a UK entity's Stripe account by accident.
Agencies running client events
The agency operates the desk; the client's entity must still be merchant of record for that event's money.
What to look for in multi-entity event settlement
When several companies in a group, or several clients, sell tickets from one account, the question is not only how attendees pay but which company receives the money. Six checks.
- 01
Each entity connects its own account
Every legal entity connects its own Stripe or PayPal account. BagEvent never holds the funds, so there is no platform balance to pay out or reconcile.
- 02
Mapping by event or by currency
Route each event, or each currency, to the entity that should receive it. One organisation can run many entities without anyone re-keying orders.
- 03
The seller on record is the right company
Because each sale runs through that entity's own payment account, that entity — not BagEvent — is the merchant of record for it.
- 04
Reports that reconcile per entity
Revenue splits by entity and by currency, so each entity reconciles on its own. Conversion appears only in the group report, which is a reporting view rather than a balance.
- 05
Refunds from the same account
A full or partial refund goes back through the original payment method, from the same entity's account that took the payment, and reporting updates by itself.
- 06
Limits stated up front
Pro is built for one settling entity, Business covers five and Enterprise is unlimited. BagEvent takes 0% of ticket sales on every plan.
Tools for multi-entity settlement
Map currencies and events to entities; each settles to its own connected account.
Ticket types and forms stay on one event while settlement follows the entity map.
Revenue reports split by entity and currency so each books close on its own.
One door experience for attendees; the money still lands where the map says.

Frequently asked questions
Yes — that is the point of this setup. Each legal entity connects its own Stripe account, and every event is mapped to the entity that should receive its money, so multiple Stripe accounts live under one BagEvent organisation without anyone re-keying orders. Business covers five entities and Enterprise is unlimited.
It means each event or currency can settle ticket revenue to a different legal entity and payment account you nominate, instead of forcing every sale through one company.

Related but not the same. Multi-currency is what attendees pay in. Multi-entity settlement is which company receives the money. You often need both on international programmes.
