When you set up payouts on BrightStar, you're plugged into Stripe Connect. This is the architecture that lets a kirtan circle collecting money at the door, a retreat center taking a deposit on a weekend program, or a festival selling weekend passes all get paid through one connected Stripe account. The split between you and BrightStar is set on the charge itself, so there's less room for money to go missing between the moment someone buys a ticket and the moment it shows up in your account. Understanding how that single charge splits answers most of the questions you'll have about your payouts.
How is the ticket price split among BrightStar, Stripe, and you?
The split isn't calculated after the sale. BrightStar passes an application fee amount along with the charge, so the fee is fixed when the charge is created. Who bears the fees depends on the event's setting. When you absorb fees, they come out of your share instead.
How long before the money lands in your bank?
Two different clocks matter here. The charge itself settles into your connected Stripe account as part of the same payment. The move from your Stripe balance into your bank account follows your payout schedule.
