built for ticketing platforms.
fully legal. we pay after the event is done, directly to the third party · no problems.
we hold the funds in custody. event succeeds · we payout. event fails · we refund. no headache for you.
everything you need on day one.
admin panel
manage every event in one dashboard. live sales, settlement status, payout configuration, refund queue. invite teammates with scoped roles.
custom pre-event payout
need cash flow before the show? request an advance against pre-sold tickets. we release a configurable portion early, settle the rest after the event clears.
request for refunds
buyer or organizer can trigger a refund from the dashboard. stablecoin refunds clear to the original wallet within minutes. fiat refunds reverse the bank rail.
the math is simple.
real published rates for ticketing platforms · we automatically show stripe pricing for your region. toniq fees are paid by the buyer · not you.

two ways to plug in.
pick the integration shape that matches your platform. both ship in under a week and carry zero monthly fees.
two settlement models. pick the one that matches your operations.
same compliance perimeter. same buyer experience. the only difference is who receives the funds first · the platform, or the organizer directly.

we're crypto natives · we thought of everything.
a link lands in your inbox. you pick the network, token, and wallet address. we send. zero room for a typo on the wrong chain · zero risk of paying out the wrong asset.
prefer cash in the bank? paste your SWIFT details once · we wire the net payout to your verified business account after every event clears.
edge cases, handled.
crypto is final · which makes mistakes loud. we built deterministic handling for the three cases that actually matter.
underpayment
if a buyer sends less than the required amount, we email them directly asking to complete the payment. no tickets are issued until full payment is confirmed.
your platform receives nothing until the full amount clears · no partial fulfilment risk.
overpayment
if a buyer sends more than required, toniq automatically refunds the difference to their original wallet address · minus a $1.60 handling fee.
fully automated. no manual intervention needed on your side.
timeout
each payment session is valid for 15 minutes. if the buyer doesn't complete payment in time, the session expires. no funds are at risk.
webhook retry: 4 attempts at 0, +1min, +5min, +30min · then dashboard alert.
what this means for your business.
adding crypto as a payment option typically lifts overall conversion by 5 to 10% · because buyers who have crypto but no suitable card can now complete the purchase. on top of conversion lift, you eliminate chargeback losses that silently drain 0.5 to 1.5% of card revenue every year.
- new revenue from buyers who couldn't pay before
- zero chargeback losses on every crypto transaction
- zero fees deducted from organizer proceeds
- global buyers with no FX friction
illustrative estimate. actual conversion uplift varies by market and audience.
built on regulated rails, by people who read the law.
