Sell on MultiVendor
Host author, creator and media events
Writers, creators, podcasters, artists and the publishers, studios and venues that support them can list events on MultiVendor Market from their own shop. Set the date and time zone, add a venue or an online link that is sent only to registered attendees, cap the audience and let the automatic waitlist fill any open spots. Reminder emails go out before the event. Attendees pay you directly through your own Stripe or PayPal account; MultiVendor never holds your money and charges a subscription for the software.

Tips for selling author, creator & media events
- Name the person and the work in the title, for example the book, album or series, so fans can find the event by searching for it.
- Describe the running order: a reading, a conversation, audience questions and anything that follows.
- Run the session on your own meeting or streaming tool and paste that link into the listing so only registered attendees receive it.
- Use share links and QR codes in newsletters, on social posts and at the end of episodes to see which channel brings registrations.
- Say clearly whether a replay will be available so attendees can decide whether they need to join live.
Start an author, creator and media events marketplace
If you run a literary community, a creator network or a regional arts scene, you can launch a marketplace where many hosts list their own events under your brand and custom domain. Create categories such as launches, interviews and premieres, invite sellers, and let the AI builder suggest a structure, branding and seller requirements. Each host connects their own payments, so you curate the calendar without handling anyone else's money.
Ideas to start from
- → A virtual book tour calendar for independent authors and small presses
- → A podcast live-show hub where shows list recordings and listener sessions
- → A regional arts marketplace for gallery talks and studio visits
- → An indie film premiere calendar for festivals and filmmakers

Questions about selling author, creator & media events
Does MultiVendor provide the video stream for my event?
No. You run the session on your own meeting or streaming tool and add the link to your event. MultiVendor handles registration, capacity, the waitlist, reminder emails and sending the link to registered attendees.
How do I get paid for author or creator event registrations?
Attendees pay you directly through your own Stripe or PayPal account. MultiVendor charges a subscription for the software and never holds your money.
Can I host free and paid events from the same shop?
Yes. Each event is its own listing, so you can run a free launch reading alongside a smaller paid session from the same shop.
Can a publisher or venue list events for several authors?
Yes. A publisher, bookstore or venue can run one shop with many events, or start its own marketplace where each author or creator lists their own events.
