Tracking revenue live during the event — how the board stays on top

· 4 min · Zomk

If Sunday evening is when you first check the numbers, you've already lost.

Why track live

At a three-day event, Friday night decides whether Saturday has enough beer. Counting on Monday changes nothing.

What Zomk shows

  • Revenue per stand, per hour, per product.
  • Cash/card/NFC share in real time.
  • Warnings for unusual drops (e.g. card reader offline).
  • CSV or DATEV export after the event.

A practical routine

  • Every 2 hours: board checks revenue and change needs.
  • Peak: extra staff on the strongest stands.
  • Post-event: export report to the treasurer.

Bottom line

Live revenue isn't a luxury — it prevents the classic "if only we had known" moments.
