Booked staff, escrowed pay, in three steps
Post and review
Describe your event and the roles you need. Talent apply, and you choose who to book.
Fund escrow
When you accept a talent, you fund the booking and Standby holds the payment in escrow via Stripe. It is released to the talent after the event wraps.
Broadcast and release
Go live. Once the booking is marked complete, payment releases automatically after a 7-day dispute window, unless a dispute is opened.
Why Standby
- Org funds the bookingPayment is captured the moment a booking is confirmed.
- Held in escrowStandby holds the funds until the event wraps and the dispute window closes.
- Released to talent once the event is doneReleased 7 days after the event, unless the booking is disputed.
Escrow on paid bookings
The org funds the booking when it's confirmed. Standby holds it, not the org. Talent gets paid automatically after the event, so nobody has to chase an invoice.
Starting in North America
Standby is launching with talent and orgs in North America first. More regions come later.
Credits and reviews
Profiles list past credits and work samples. After a completed booking, talent and orgs review each other, and ratings only come from completed bookings.
