Jamrats

Why Jamrats

Built against
the marketplace tax.

Independent organizers shouldn’t pay percentage fees that scale with success, hand their customer list to a platform, and wait three weeks to see the money. We built Jamrats because the math wasn’t adding up.

Three things we won’t do

The promises.

No percentage fees

Our cost to process one ticket doesn't change whether it's a $5 raffle or a $200 weekend pass. Our price shouldn't either. Flat $0.99.

No holding your money

Buyer funds go straight into your bank account. We never sit on a balance you have to ask back for.

No emailing your audience

Your customer list is yours. We don’t cross-sell it to other organizers, we don’t market to your buyers on our own behalf, and CSV exports work in every plan.

Side by side

Who we’re for — and who we’re not

For you if

  • You run independent events at 50–5,000 cap.
  • Your tickets cost more than $10 on average.
  • You care who owns your customer list.
  • You’d rather get paid next-day than next-month.

Probably not if

  • You’re selling tens of thousands of $5 raffle tickets. A donation platform fits better.
  • You need stadium-scale features (dynamic pricing, paperless transfer, fan ID). A marketplace fits better.
  • You want a sales team to white-glove your account. We’re self-serve by design.
