Whatever sells your seats stays. Riverbend takes over everything on screen — the PPV stream, chat every round, replays, fighter referral links, and payouts the night of the fight.

Fees stacked on top of fees
Streaming platform takes their cut. Payment processor takes their cut. By settlement, the margin is gone.

Corner questions
Before the first bell.
What does it cost to run a card?
There is no monthly fee and no setup charge. Riverbend takes 20% of PPV sales (Broadcast). Each PPV event includes air time set by its lowest ticket price — 6 h at $5, 12 h at $10, 24 h at $20, 60 h at $30+ — and overtime past that is billed by the hour after a 15-minute grace. Stripe processing (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction) applies to card charges.
Do you sell tickets for the venue?
No. Keep whatever already sells your seats — Riverbend handles everything on screen. If you want your crowd to have the stream and the replay too, hand ticket holders an access code.
Do I need a production truck or an encoder?
No. Larger shows stream from OBS, vMix, Wirecast or any RTMP encoder with multiple cameras; regional shows and smaller cards can go live straight from a laptop browser.
When do I get paid?
Every PPV sale deposits directly into your own Stripe account as fans pay. We never hold your money, and there is no monthly settlement window.
Can fans who bought PPV watch the replay?
Yes. When the event ends the recording goes live automatically, and PPV buyers keep replay access.
