Card processing is handled by Stripe (typically 2.9% + 30¢ per transaction, paid to Stripe, not ShowHive). Entry fees settle directly to the organizer's own Stripe account, and organizers can optionally pass the card fee through to the entrant — disclosed before payment. Prices subject to change before public launch.
Which one is right for you?
| If you… | Choose | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Run a small free show or club meet | Community | Free forever, up to 3 events and 50 entries |
| Run one or two judged/paid shows a year | Single Event | Pay only for the shows you run — no ongoing cost |
| Run three or more shows a year | Subscription | Cheaper than buying events individually, and unlimited |
| Are a registered 501(c)(3) | Charity Events | Discounted or waived so more goes to the cause |
Compare to per-car pricing
Platforms that charge ~$2.39 per registration cost a 300-entry show about $717 in platform fees — before card processing. On ShowHive that show is covered by a $299/year subscription, and the gate is yours.
