Advice needed: organising being paid via bank transfer etc.

[Marvin]

I'm sure this has been covered many times but I can't find a relevant thread.

 

I've never had anything to do with payment side regarding gigs, the band leader has always sorted it. In a new band and there isn't a band leader as such so we're a bit in the dark on some things.

 

We've got a gig coming up where the pub pays by bank transfer (on the day). This seems to be the way a lot of pubs etc are going. If it's a regular payment method for the places we're going to be playing, what's a good way of organising it for a band? 

 

To be honest I wouldn't want regular transfers going into my account and the 3 transfers going out...

 

Cheers

If you don’t want it going through your personal account, set up a separate account for the band with someone like Starling and make all payments in/out of that. 10 minute job to get one up and running.

You invoice the gig, the rest of the band invoice you.

We have a Monzo account for band stuff.  To be honest it makes things much easier.

We use a Starling account for the band. It really is only 10 mins to set one up
