Yes, you'll need to connect a payout account via Stripe before guests can purchase tickets. When you first enable ticketing on your event, you'll see a "Get Started" prompt that walks you through Stripe onboarding (this usually takes 2–3 minutes). Once verified, your event dashboard will show "Ready to sell tickets.”
A few things to know:
- Stripe asks for a company website, which we pre-fill with your Partiful profile page, so you don't need a separate business site. If you do have a separate business site, feel free to input that instead.
- While Stripe verifies your account, you'll see a "Verifying your details..." screen on your Partiful page. You will not be able to create ticket types until your account is verified by Stripe.
- Payouts go to the person who set up the Stripe connection. If you have cohosts, only the original creator can access Stripe from the Partiful event page.
