About us

Lomeo exists for people who create memorable experiences: independent theaters, exhibitions, workshop hosts, festival organizers, and community event creators. Community events are where a percentage fee hurts most — a neighborhood festival, a volunteer-run theater night, a workshop that should break even. These organizers rarely need a huge event-management system. They need a reliable way to sell tickets, receive payments securely, and welcome people at the door. Stripe and Lomeo do that together.

Instead of becoming another platform, Lomeo lives inside the Stripe Dashboard. It turns Stripe into a ticket shop: payments go straight to your Stripe account, buyers receive a QR-code ticket after checkout, and your door team checks people in from any phone. No middleman. No delayed payouts. Lomeo never holds your money.

Lomeo is not a ticket marketplace, not a payment processor, and not a replacement for Stripe. It is the ticketing layer on top of the Stripe account you already own: products become tickets, checkout stays in Stripe, and Lomeo handles delivery and door check-in.

Lomeo was not built in a boardroom. It was built by people who organized events, volunteered at the entrance, scanned tickets, answered late-night emails, and did whatever needed doing. We first used it at events we volunteered for, a philosophy festival in Amsterdam, and for our friends running their small businesses. Those events taught us what actually matters at the door, a ticket that arrives, a QR code that scans, and fees that do not eat the budget. After refining it over time, we’re excited to share it with everyone.

Regarding cost, our goal is to reduce the per-ticket fee to €0.02-0.05. Yes, really. We believe technology should deliver more value, not higher fees. Because when ticketing costs less, more events can happen — more often, in more communities, bringing more people together.
