- **In-person sales and table service:** Tickets can be sold at the door through the app, and organizers can offer table service from a seating map.
- **Payouts and finance tools:** Payouts run through Stripe onboarding, with a finance dashboard showing balances, daily or manual payout schedules and instant payouts for eligible balances.
- **Marketing tools:** Posh documents SMS campaigns, kickback affiliates and tracking links, ad tracking pixels and Mailchimp and webhook connections.
- **Payment plans and currencies:** Organizers can set up Affirm payment plans and sell tickets in another currency, and the help center covers refunds and event cancellation.

## Good for

- Promoters of club nights, parties and festivals
- Organizers who want a door-scanning app and a consumer discovery app in one
- Events that sell table service

## Worth knowing

- No fee rate for organizers or attendees is published on the pages we read. The help center says a service fee is added to the ticket price, covering Posh and payment processing.
- Payouts need Stripe onboarding, and funds sit as pending for 24 to 48 business hours before they can be withdrawn, except for instant payouts.
- The help center describes sales tax auto-collection as live only for events in select locations.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Posh you would be making texts to thousands of numbers, registered with the carriers. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 34 of the 45 other event ticketing platforms grade higher.

- You could not: Texts to thousands of numbers, registered with the carriers.
- You could not: Selling tickets and checking them at the door.
- You could not: Scanning barcodes with a phone camera or a scanner.
- You could not: Every click and sale traced back to the right partner.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
