Comedy Nights, Without the Ticketing Tax
Flat 2.7% on paid tickets — that's it. Auto-waitlists when you oversell the room, QR check-in at the door, photo albums your crowd will actually look at the next morning, and 8 organiser socials on every event page.
Sound familiar?
You're not alone. These are the challenges we hear every day.
Eventbrite takes a bite of every ticket
Comedy nights run on thin margins. Eventbrite's 3.7% + $1.79 per ticket eats into your door split.
No-shows kill your guarantees
You paid your headliner a flat guarantee assuming a full room. Four no-shows, and suddenly your night is in the red.
Walk-ins vs presale chaos at the door
You're the producer, the host, and the door person.
Built for every kind of comedy operator
Whether you run a weekly basement showcase, produce touring nights, or own a dedicated club, Who's In adapts to your scale.
The Regular Night Host
Weekly or monthly comedy shows
You run a recurring comedy showcase at a bar, basement, or cafe. You need ticketed presale, a waitlist when you oversell, and a clean door experience.
The Touring Act
One-off special shows & tours
You're producing your own tour. Every city has a different venue, different capacity, different door split.
The Club Owner
Dedicated comedy club
You book 3–7 shows a week. You need a branded booking page, photo galleries per night, and the ability to track repeat customers across shows.
Three steps to a fully ticketed comedy night
Template, share, door. That's the whole workflow.
Create the night in 60 seconds
Use the Comedy Night template — capacity, 18+ disclaimer, two-drink minimum, showtime defaults all pre-filled.
Share it everywhere
Your organiser Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and X icons auto-sync onto every event page.
Sell tickets. Run the door.
Stripe handles presale at 2.7% flat. Waitlist auto-promotes when someone drops. QR check-in works offline at the door.
Promoters and club owners who switched
Real numbers from real comedy rooms
"I moved our Friday comedy night from Eventbrite and saved about $170 every sold-out show. The waitlist auto-promote fills the last 3 seats we always used to lose to last-minute drops."
"The photo album on each event page is where people go the next morning to tag themselves. Our Instagram follower growth tripled once we stopped posting photos separately and started uploading direct to the event page."
"Booking a national tour across 12 cities used to mean 12 spreadsheets. Now I create 12 events, Stripe payouts land the next day, and I can see the whole tour's numbers in one dashboard."

Availability depends on your Stripe Connect country and the customer's location. Who's In charges a flat 2.7% platform fee on paid tickets — Stripe's standard processing fees apply on top (typically 1.5–2.9% + a small fixed amount per transaction, varies by country and payment method). Free events incur zero fees.
Who's In is a Stripe verified platform partner · Never see your card data · Flat 2.7% on paid tickets
Fees in plain English: the 2.7% is the Who's In platform fee, what we charge for the software. Stripe's standard processing fees apply on top (typically 1.5–2.9% + a small fixed amount per transaction, varies by country and payment method) and are paid directly to Stripe, not to us. See stripe.com/pricing for Stripe's authoritative rates. Free events incur zero fees.
Your club brand — not ours
Included free for every promoter
Custom branding on every event page. Logo, colors, vanity URL, wallet passes in your brand — attendees see your show, not Who's In.
"Eventbrite took $900 off me last year on comedy fees alone. Who's In is $240 on the same volume. I don't even notice the fee — and the waitlist auto-promote means my sold-out shows actually sell every seat."
