Hazel & Oak apply through your form. One press of Accept and the stall is provisioned, with a secure Pay by Bank invoice already on its way.
How applications workThey pay £120. You keep £120. Hazel settles the invoice straight from her banking app, and the processing line reads £0.00 — included in your plan.
How payment links workHer stall already exists, so you drag it across the hall. It snaps to the grid, clicks into pitch B12, and the plan your setup crew prints is the plan that is live.
How the floor plan worksHazel checks in on the same QR flow as your buyers. Every code verifies once, the count climbs as the queue moves, and a second scan is caught on the spot.
Day-of scanning guideLive in an afternoon.
Event created, applications open, tickets selling and the gate scanned — one afternoon of setup.
The subscription advantage
Most payment providers take another percentage and fixed fee every time a trader pays. With Popup Pal, Pay by Bank processing is included in your monthly subscription—alongside every tool you need to manage the trader from application to pitch.

Draw the site once, place each trader and give your setup crew a plan that matches the live event.
Every feature on every plan
Your subscription is not just payment processing. Waitlists, checkout recovery, add-ons, referrals, reminders and feedback are part of the same product, with no feature gates between plans.
The fee freeze
On per-payment platforms, every stall payment sheds a slice on its way to you. One subscription ends that.
Illustrative: a run of stall payments crosses a fee toll. On per-payment platforms, £17.13 drains away in processing fees before the subscription bar arrives; the shards mid-fall freeze, the fee counter is struck through, and the remaining payments land in full — £1655.00 kept by you.

Made for the shape of your event
Markets, exhibitions and festivals all have visitors at the gate and businesses behind the tables. Popup Pal understands both sides.
Straight answers
No. Buyers check out as guests and receive a secure link to their order, where they can view tickets, download passes, request refunds and forward tickets to friends. There are no passwords and no app to install.
Ticket payments are processed through your connected Stripe account and pay out on your Stripe schedule. Stallholders use a secure Pay by Bank link, with each payment tracked automatically against their invoice. Popup Pal does not pool your event funds, and cash or offline bank transfers can still be recorded so the dashboard always shows who is paid up.
Stall-payment plans start at £49 a month, excluding VAT, with every feature included. Plans differ only by their annual stall-payment and collected-value allowances, and Pay by Bank processing is included in the monthly price. You can sell tickets too — that stays pay-as-you-sell, with pricing on the pricing page.
Instead of losing a percentage-plus-fixed processing fee on every stall payment, Pay by Bank processing is included in your monthly plan, so that per-payment charge disappears. Depending on your booking volume and current processing costs, that could save thousands each year. Card payments can still be offered separately.
Yes. There is no lock-in on either side: create your Popup Pal event alongside your existing listing, point your links at it, and switch when you are ready. You can import your existing subscriber list (with their consent), and because buyers do not need accounts there is nothing for your audience to sign up for.
You can cancel from the dashboard at any time. Ticket holders are notified automatically and refunds are processed back to the original payment method through your Stripe account, per your refund policy and our organiser agreement.
Doors open when you do
