FAQ
Questions, Answered
Do we have to use GigFinesse to find artists?
No. Back of House is built for venues that book their own talent. You keep full control of who plays your room. We run everything after the handshake.
What changes for our artists?
They onboard once with a profile, W-9, and direct deposit, then get paid within 72 hours of every show, with a 1099 at year end. They also become discoverable to hundreds of other GigFinesse venues, which means more gigs for them.
How does billing work on our side?
All of your shows roll into one consolidated monthly invoice with Net 30 terms, itemized by show and artist. One payment a month covers everything.
Who handles the 1099s?
We do. Every performer paid through the platform gets their 1099 issued at year end, and your books stay clean without lifting a finger.
What does Back of House cost?
Simple per-show pricing, scoped to your calendar and your budget: no subscriptions, no minimums, no setup fees.
What if we want help booking some shows?
That’s built in. Keep booking your regular lineup and bring in our full-service curation whenever you need it: special events, holiday programming, or a one-off show. And if you ever want us to program everything, you can go fully curated anytime.
