For curators

Everything you get, in writing.

No handshake terms, no working it out afterwards. This is what Nesso charges, what you're paid, and how each part works — so you can read it before you commit anything.

You keep 100% of your ticket price

Our fee is 3%, and your buyer covers it — along with card processing. List a ticket at $20 and $20 is what reaches your account. Your first event is free: no platform fee at all on the first one you sell tickets to.

A $20 ticket

Your buyer pays$21.53
Card processing$0.92
Nesso, 3%$0.60
You receive$20.01

Rounding always goes your way, which is why that's a cent over your list price.

What else you get

Run it with your team

Your events belong to your group, not to whoever happened to create them. Add co-admins and any of you can post and edit your group's events straight from your own profile — no shared login, no keeping track of which account made what.

Who you're dealing with

I'm local to DC. Curators on Nesso get my phone number, and if something breaks on the night of your event you can call me and I'll get on it — not a ticket queue in another time zone.

Part of what Nesso earns goes back into the scene it comes from: sponsoring other organizers' events, and community work like tutoring and food drives. The fee is small on purpose, and what it funds is meant to be visible to you.

Straight answer

Nesso is early. This site documents what works today, not what's planned. If you need something it doesn't do yet, ask — the roadmap is short enough that the answer might be "next month."
