We’re tired of paying 12% to a queue page.
Droptix is a UK music ticketing platform built by people who still go to 200-cap gigs and 4am warehouse sets. We started it because the incumbents — Ticketmaster, Skiddle, Fatsoma, Eventbrite — take too much, pay too slow, and treat independent promoters like an afterthought.
What’s different
- 5% + 50p, not 12% + VAT. Volume tiers drop lower. Per-promoter overrides.
- T+7 payouts, not 30 days. Faster for trusted promoters.
- Self-serve Stripe Connect. No sales calls. Your money, your bank.
- Scanner PWA that works on any staff phone. Offline-ready.
- Music only. No comedy, no quiz nights. Built around gigs, clubs, festivals — the rooms that pay the rent for the scene.
