Jamrats

About

Built by organizers,
for organizers.

Jamrats started the way most ticketing platforms don’t: with a phone call from a friend running a 200-cap warehouse show, frustrated that the percentage fee on a $25 ticket was the same as a beer at the bar.

The math felt wrong. Independent organizers — the venues, promoters, charities, schools, and festivals that put on the shows people actually care about — were subsidizing the marketing budgets of platforms designed for arena tours. Worse, the platforms kept the customer list. Repeat attendees became a leverage point against the organizer who brought them in the first place.

We built Jamrats to flip the relationship: flat $0.99per ticket, payouts paid straight into the organizer’s own bank account (not ours), and CSV exports of the audience the organizer actually earned. The platform exists to do the boring infrastructure work — tickets, QR codes, refunds, tax receipts — and then get out of the way.

We’re small on purpose. The product is shipped by a tiny team who all run their own events on the platform. If it breaks at the door, we feel it before you do.

What we believe

Three rules we won’t break.

01

Organizers own their audience

You own your customer list. We never email your buyers behind your back, never lock CSV exports behind a paywall, and never treat the people who bought your tickets as the platform’s leads.

02

Money goes straight to you

We don't hold buyer funds. Every payment goes to your own Stripe account, and by default you're paid out 3 business days after your event ends. We’re not a wallet that holds your cash.

03

Pricing should be a sentence

$0.99 per ticket. Free events stay free. You only pay the card company’s actual processing fee — we don’t add to it. No setup fees, no monthly minimums, no "contact sales" tiers.

Where we’re based

We’re a Canadian company, headquartered in Winnipeg. Organizers can sign up from 45 countries, across 24 currencies. Each organization sells in its own local currency and is paid out to its own Stripe account.

Jamrats is a product of WeBuildCode Inc., a Manitoba corporation that builds and runs its own online software products for live-music and community audiences.
