Keep your recital revenue in your studio.
Recital tickets, costume orders and travel drives shouldn’t lose 20% to a platform. A capped fee on card sales and $0 on cash and checks, for studios, cheer squads and gymnastics boosters.
What UnitTally does for dance and cheer
Keep your ticket revenue
Selling recital tickets to families shouldn’t mean giving up a percentage of every seat. Capped fees keep ticket money in your studio.
Sizes and options handled
Costumes come in sizes and colors. Every option is recorded on the order, and the order export lists the dancer and size for each item.
Card or cash, one dashboard
Parents pay online by card, or you record cash and checks by hand at no fee. Everything reconciles in one shared dashboard.
How a recital season runs on UnitTally
- 1
Open costume orders
Build costume packages with sizes and colors. Parents order by card, or you record cash or a check at no fee. Each order records the dancer it was placed for and the size chosen.
- 2
Presell recital tickets
Sell tickets for each show time with a seat count on each, so a show never sells past the room.
- 3
Sell program ads and sponsors
Sell recital program ads and studio sponsorships to local businesses. On a $1,000 program sponsor, the UnitTally fee stops at $20 instead of growing with the check.
- 4
Fulfill and reconcile
Export a CSV with each order’s dancer and size, sort it in your spreadsheet and send it to your manufacturer. Card and cash entries sit in one ledger.
Costumes, recital tickets and sponsorships all reconcile in one studio ledger you can export as a CSV at any time.
What one family order keeps.
Say your average family order for costumes and recital tickets is $80.00. A platform taking 20% would keep $16.00 of every order. On UnitTally’s Free plan your studio keeps $75.08 after card processing, $11.08 more per family.
Try your own numbers in the calculator| Platform | Fees | You keep |
|---|---|---|
| A 20% platform | $16.00 | $64.00 |
| UnitTally Free, by card | $2.30*+ $2.62 Stripe | $75.08 |
| UnitTally, cash or check | $0.00 | $80.00 |
*$2.30 UnitTally fee plus Stripe’s separate processing of about 2.9% + 30¢.
Dance and cheer questions.
Can we sell tickets for specific recital times?
Yes. Add each show time as its own option with a seat count. Checkout stops selling a show once it’s full.
How do we track costume sizes and parent orders?
Create costume packages with size options. Export a CSV with each order’s dancer and size to sort in your spreadsheet before you send it to your costume manufacturer.
Can we ask parents to volunteer during ticket checkout?
Checkout stays short so you don’t lose ticket sales. Link parents to your volunteer sign-up from the confirmation page or email instead.
