Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I accept tips through Taste the Tease?
Absolutely! 100% of tips received via cash, card, or payment app will go to the designated performer(s) if you don’t have your own payment apps or prefer to keep them private.
How do payments get calculated?
All of our shows donate 10% of the ticket and raffle sales to non-profits that support our community! We also do benefit shows that donate 25% to a beneficiary that is announced ahead of time. The minimum for acts varies; you have the option of a higher one-time payment OR a lower payment and the re-casting of your video in a second virtual show. You have the opportunity to make more tips, a larger portion of sales, or another $30-50 minimum for the act in the second show (based on whether you were originally cast as a standard or featured performer)!
