The engine that collects group payments — and proves who paid.
Been Handled is the payments and coordination layer for group transactions. Brands collect payments from every member under their own name, on their own Stripe account. Friends run the itinerary, tickets, and receipts on one shared timeline. Same engine. Two front doors.
$9.99/mo for squads. Brands: transparent 10% + $0.50 processing on every payment, settled through Stripe Connect and split 50/50 with you after Stripe's cut. Download partner sell sheet →
A brand collecting payments and a friend running the group chat are the same coordination problem — money in, proof out.
Collect a payment from every member — under your brand, into your Stripe.
Your rep creates a group in the portal with the party lead's email. Members get texted the branded checkout on the spot. The lead forwards the same link to anyone missed. Your full sale amount lands in your merchant account through Stripe Connect. A transparent 10% + $0.50 processing fee is added on top of the base price at checkout; after Stripe's cut, the remainder splits 50/50 with you.

Meet your customer where the group is.
A rep adds the group in one tap and captures each member's email or US/Canada phone. Emails get a branded invite; phones get one text — payment done in under 30 seconds. A single reminder text goes out a week before the event. Two texts max per person, funded by the payment, so your margin stays intact. Friend groups run the same engine from the phone in their pocket. Same engine. Two front doors.

Real-time visibility into every group your locations are running. Collection rates by store, by state, by rep. Automatic payout reconciliation against Stripe transfers with variance flagged before your accountant asks. Export CSVs your finance team will actually love.
