Fastbreak Ticketing uses Stripe to process all payments. Stripe is a trusted payment provider used by businesses worldwide.


What Stripe does for you

  • Safely handles all customer payments.

  • Holds your ticket revenue in your Stripe balance.

  • Sends payouts (transfers) to your bank account on the schedule you choose.

  • Provides reports you can use for reconciliation and taxes.


What to expect with your first payments

  • Stripe may hold your very first payout for 5–7 days while they verify your account.

  • After that, payouts are sent on a rolling schedule

  • You’ll always see your current balance and upcoming payouts in your Stripe Dashboard.


A quick look at the Stripe Dashboard

When you log into dashboard.stripe.com, you’ll see:

  • Home – A summary of your balance, recent payments, and upcoming payouts.

  • Payments – A list of every charge, refund, and dispute.

  • Balances & Payouts – Shows what funds are available and when they’ll hit your bank.

  • Reports – Download payout reconciliation and balance reports for accounting.

  • Settings – Update bank info, tax details, and business information.

ℹ️ Think of Stripe like your “bank account” for ticket sales. Everything flows through here before it reaches your actual bank.
