Sales channels and promoter links
Give each promoter, artist or platform its own link, and see what each one sold.
Step by step
- Open the event and its “Channels” tab.
- Press “+ New channel”.
- Choose a “Platform”, or choose “No platform” and type the “Owner”: the promoter, artist or partner the link is for.
- Check the “Code”. It is the part people paste, and it cannot be changed after you save.
- Press “Create channel”, then “Copy link” on the new card, and send the link to whoever shares it.
- To give every artist on the line-up a link of their own, use “From the line-up”.
Channels belong to one event. A new event starts with none.

- Does a promoter code give buyers a discount?
- No. The code only records where a sale came from. It does not change the price or unlock a tier.
- Does a promoter need a Strobo account?
- No. The owner of a link is just a name.
- Where do I see what a link sold?
- On the “Channels” tab, each link's card shows its orders, tickets and ticket sales. Ticket sales are the ticket price, without the service fee.
- What if a buyer comes back later without the link?
- Then the sale is not credited to the link. Only a purchase made after arriving through the link counts for it.
- Can I edit or delete a link?
- No. Check the code before you press “Create channel”.
- Does one link work for all my events?
- No. A link belongs to one event, so each event needs its own links.
- Does Strobo work out promoter commission?
- No. Strobo shows what each link sold, and nothing about commission or amounts owed.
- What if someone uses a wrong or old code?
- The purchase goes through as usual, without a channel.
