Questions

Good to know

Is the venue page really free?

Yes. Your venue home page, live calendar, resident artists and team roles are free. Premium growth tools like insights, email and push are part of a paid plan you turn on when you want them.

How does the calendar fill up?

Events tagged to your venue appear on your public calendar automatically, so upcoming shows stay up to date without you re-listing anything by hand.

What is premium versus free?

Insights, email marketing, push notifications, tracking pixels and a custom URL are premium. Your base page, calendar, resident artists and team roles stay free.

Do I have to sell tickets through Sway?

No. Your venue page works on its own. When the events at your venue use Sway ticketing, everything links up, but your page and calendar do not depend on it.

Can my staff and resident promoters help manage the page?

Yes. Add members with reader, manager or admin roles, and use Crew coverage for multi-page teams, so everyone gets the right keys with no shared login.
