What we put out, and when.
Platform take
What iHYPE earns from tickets.
iHYPE has no recipient account in the ticket split logic. The number below is structural — it cannot be changed without a charter amendment.
Every dollar from ticket sales goes to the artist (45%), venue (45%), and promoter (10%). iHYPE's operating costs are covered by music-industry advertising and grants — not by taking from shows.
How we stay alive
Revenue sources.
As a 501(c)(3), our model is designed to cover costs without extracting value from the community.
Music advertising
Audio ads during playback from music-industry advertisers only. Rule: artists, labels, venues, festivals. Nothing else.
Foundation grants
Arts infrastructure, music access, and community technology grants. Not gifts with strings attached.
Program investment
Mission-aligned recoverable debt. No equity stake. No board seat. No influence over editorial decisions.
Backline Fund
Optional fan contributions that flow directly to artist equipment grants. We administer, not take.
Hold us to it.
The numbers above are public for a reason. If something looks wrong, reach out.
