Cover charge

Every admit,
paid and on the record.

Cash, comp or Tap to Pay on the door phone, with the price already set by the time of night, the guest's membership and the promotion they claimed. A night with 180 admits has 180 receipts: 90 cash, 40 card, 50 comped with a reason.

Why it pays

Every dollar at the door, with a receipt behind it.

0 readers

Card cover with no card reader

The guest taps their card or phone on the door phone. The charge goes through Stripe into your balance.

50 reasons

Comps with reasons, not missing covers

Member, promotion, guest of the house, industry. A night where half the room was comped is explained line by line.

$900

The drawer matches the ledger

Ninety cash covers at $10 is $900 in the drawer at close. Card cover matches your Stripe payouts, line by line.

The rules

How cover is recorded.

  • Price changes during the night

    The ledger records the amount that applied at the moment of each admit.

  • Members

    Free cover shows as comped by membership at $0 without anyone tapping Comp. A percentage off shows the reduced price.

  • Tap to Pay

    Needs a verified venue with payouts connected. Cash and comp work with nothing connected.

  • Reversing

    Reverse a check-in from the guest's row. The ledger keeps both entries.

  • Receipts

    Permanent. A night with money on it can't be deleted; it can be canceled or archived and the receipt stays.
