Ledger 03 · Artist Deal Math

Deal Structures: Guarantee, Versus, Plus & House Nut

3 Deal Modes
1. Flat Guarantee Fixed Fee
Artist Payout = $500.00

Artist receives a fixed guarantee regardless of ticket count.

2. Versus (Higher Of) Guarantee vs %
MAX($500, 70% Net Pool)

Pays whichever is higher: the guarantee or the artist’s share after house nut & capped expenses.

3. Plus (Guarantee + %) Guarantee + Backend
$500 + 70% Remaining Pool

Pays the guarantee first, then splits the remaining net pool after house nut and expenses.

Test ticket counts, $0-fee cash sales, expense caps, house nut, and Guarantee / Versus / Plus payouts.

Frequently Asked Questions

So you never hand out more physical cash at strike than the door drawer actually collected.
