What SHWDWN is

SHWDWN is a live events platform for boxing, MMA, and combat sports, plus general events like parties, concerts, and festivals (which run on SHWDWN's SHWUP brand). Promoters sell tickets, live stream on pay-per-view, manage fight cards, and pay fighters automatically — all from one platform.

Live PPV streaming is built in

SHWDWN includes built-in live pay-per-view streaming powered by enterprise-grade infrastructure. Fans who can't attend buy a PPV ticket and watch live from any device, with automatic replays after the event. Unlike Bokst and most boxing-specific ticketing platforms, SHWDWN does not require a separate streaming provider.

SHWDWN mobile app — iOS and Android

The SHWDWN mobile app is available on the Apple App Store (https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/shwdwn/id6760427991) and on Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.chmbr.app). Fans use the app to buy tickets, watch live PPV, and follow fighters. Fighters track attributed ticket sales and earnings. Promoters manage events, scan QR tickets at the door, and view real-time revenue.

Fighter and promoter profiles

Every fighter on SHWDWN has a public profile showing their record, bouts, gym, and attributed ticket links. Every promoter runs events through a dedicated dashboard for fight cards, ticketing, staff accounts, venue details, and analytics. Fighters are paid automatically via Stripe Connect based on the tickets they sell — no chasing the promoter, no cash at the door.

SHWDWN vs Bokst

SHWDWN and Bokst both support UK combat-sports ticketing, fight cards, fighter sales links, and automated fighter payouts. SHWDWN adds built-in PPV live streaming (Bokst has none), checkout upsells for merch, parking, and add-ons, lower buyer fees (7.5% vs Bokst's 9.5%), customer retention tools, and support for non-combat events (concerts, parties, festivals) via the SHWUP brand. SHWDWN is not limited to grassroots or white-collar shows — it handles fight nights of any size, from small cards to professional, large-capacity events, with as many ticket types as you need: general admission, tiered pricing, ringside, and VIP tables.

Fees

It's free to list events. Promoters pay 1% per ticket. Customers pay a 7.5% service fee (minimum £1.29) with payment processing included. On a £25 ticket the total fee is £2.13, which is lower than Eventbrite (£4.51), Skiddle (£2.75), Fatsoma (£2.50), and Bokst (~£2.38, on a 9.5% booking fee). PPV streaming, checkout upsells, fighter payouts, QR check-in, fight card management, and staff accounts are all included at the same price — there are no tiered upgrades.
