THESIS

Why live needs a new operating system — starting in Switzerland.

Incumbents charge 6–12%, prioritise stadiums over clubs, and settle weekly. de rouge caps fees at 3%* + CHF 1, embeds Swiss payment rails and pays out daily†. We're built for the venues that make Swiss nightlife.

A · Beachhead

Swiss-rooted, EU-shaped

Private pilot live with 10 Romandie venues and 100 fans; 20 more partners onboarding for public launch (target: 30 day-one‡). CHF-native checkout, TWINT, Apple Pay, Google Pay, EN/FR/DE UI. Same stack scales across the EU when the time is right‡.

B · Product

A 10× product, not 1.1×

Daily payouts†, AI-assisted event copy & visuals, native TWINT, dynamic QR & NFC at the door, and Pulse — a real social layer‡ — in one product. Product comparisons are illustrative and depend on implementation, integrations and market adoption.

C · Multi-stream

Five engines, one ecosystem

Core ticketing (3%* + CHF 1), B2B Premium for organisers, B2C Membership for fans, de rouge / Pay for in-venue F&B and merch (1% take-rate‡), and Creative Services / Artist Management on retainer + success fee. Each stream is planned or illustrative and may change.

D · Moat

Two-sided data network

Every ticket creates a verified fan and a verified organiser. Retention, wallet transactions, memberships and curated programming are expected network effects, not guaranteed outcomes, and depend on adoption, permissions and partner readiness‡.

* Published rates are indicative and may change. Eligibility, service type, ticket-value and usage limits, taxes, payment processing and third-party fees may apply.

† Payout timing and availability depend on payment-provider processing, account verification, compliance checks, bank business days, refunds, chargebacks, reserves and the partner agreement.

‡ Partner counts, product capabilities, geographic expansion, take-rates, adoption, retention and competitive comparisons are illustrative, forward-looking assumptions and may differ materially.

INFRASTRUCTURE & STARTUP PARTNERS

The rails are paid for.

All de rouge infrastructure runs on AWS — and AWS, Stripe, Auth0 and Zendesk each support us through their startup programmes§. Cloud spend, payment infrastructure, identity and customer support carry founder-friendly credit and pricing through the seed round, so the CHF 450k stretches further on R&D and growth§.

Cloud infrastructure

Currently 100% of the platform on AWS · Zürich region (eu-central-2) · AWS Activate startup partner — cloud credits through seed§.

Payments & payouts

Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, daily payouts†. Stripe startup partner — preferential pricing§.

Identity & security

Fans, organisers, scanner accounts. Auth0 for Startups — enterprise auth at seed-stage cost§.

Partner support

Organiser, venue and fan tickets routed through Zendesk for Startups — free through scale-up§.

Combined value of partner support across cloud, payments, identity and CS programmes may extend runway — assumptions are visible in the operating plan in the data room§.

† Payout timing and availability depend on payment-provider processing, account verification, compliance checks, bank business days, refunds, chargebacks, reserves and the partner agreement.
