For greater certainty, you are responsible for collecting and paying any taxes that may apply in relation to Monetisation made through your Official App.
Revenue from in-app monetization
Revenue means the revenues payable to the talent based on Gross Proceeds minus third-party fees charged to and paid by MySeat for mobile (and online) transactions or diffusion of content on platforms such as (without limitation) Google Play, Stripe, Apple or Shopify fees.
Revenues payment will be transferred electronically to the account of Talent, via Stripe on a monthly basis after payments have been received by MySeat along with a monthly statement sent via email. Standard practice for Google Play and Apple App Store is to issue payments four to six weeks following in-App purchase transactions.
To enable Monetisation payments, you must create a Stripe account through the Financial admin feature accessible directly from the Talent App, complying with all applicable Stripe’s requirements, terms and policies, to connect your Stripe account to your MySeat Account. For greater certainty, you are totally free to decide whether or not you agree to create a Stripe Account, it being understood that you cannot enable Monetisation on your Official App unless and until you have such an account.
Talent shall have the right, once per year, at its own cost to inspect and audit all accounting reports, books or records which concern the share of revenues to the parties.
