When the festival kicks off this weekend, most attendees will have paid for their tickets in installments.
Around 60% of general admission buyers chose the festival’s own payment plan this year, bypassing traditional ‘buy now, pay later’ services, according to Billboard.
The plan charges a $41 upfront fee—bringing in over $4 million in total with nearly 100,000 attendees. That fee is split between Coachella’s promoter and its ticketing partner.
While general admission tickets start at $499, fans can secure a spot for as little as $19.99, with the rest paid over several months.
