One weekend. 400 artists. One link.

A festival is a club night times a hundred, and the paperwork scales worse than the lineup. Eventflow runs the whole payout season, from the master sheet you already keep to the SEPA file your bank takes, without a single artist needing an account.

01 · start from your sheet

Import the master sheet. Colors and all.

Upload the xlsx you already keep. Eventflow reads the real thing, header rows where they are, booking status by cell color, cross-midnight playtimes in prose. Dry-run first, commit when it looks right, re-run without duplicates.

02 · one door for every payee

Every artist gets the same link.

One address for the whole lineup. An artist enters their email, gets a code, and lands on their own page: their fee, their invoice upload, their corrections. Hundreds of payees, zero accounts created, zero passwords reset.

03 · checks at scale

The paperwork checks itself. You approve.

Every upload is read against the agreed fee, the VAT math, the service dates inside your festival window, the bank details. Wrong invoices get told exactly what to fix, in the artist's language, and corrections chase themselves on a cadence you set.
