How Star Hypermarket helps talent managers

Talent managers already do the hard part: finding the right deals, protecting the brand, and turning a client's attention into income. What has been missing is a clean direct channel — one where fans can book time, buy signed goods, or bid on a one-of-one without a label split, a promoter cut, or an app-store tax stacked on top.

Star Hypermarket is that channel. A star lists a lunch, a drop, or an auction. A fan buys it. The platform takes 9.9% and holds the money in escrow until the thing actually happens. Every order is written to a permanent record under the buyer's name.

More margin for the roster you already manage

Today a record label can keep 75–90%, a promoter 20–33% of a purse, and an app store another 30% on the way out. Managers and agents already take 10–20% for the work they do. Star Hypermarket does not compete for that relationship cut — it replaces the stack of middlemen between the star and the fan with one rate.

One 9.9% fee covers the storefront, escrow, payments in 135 currencies plus crypto, and affiliate revenue share. Your clients keep more of every sale. A healthier margin on direct offerings means the roster can say yes to fans without giving away the deal.

Three offerings that map to real management work

• Bookings — lunch, a workout, a studio hour, a live Q&A. You help set the rate, the venue and the calendar; the fan claims a slot and shows up.
• Drops — signed merch, albums, books, limited editions. The star ships; the platform holds payment until the buyer confirms it arrived.
• Auctions — game-worn pieces, appearances, front-row seats. Highest bid wins; same escrow underneath.

Revenue share that pays managers for bringing stars in

Sign a star onto the platform and you earn on what they sell — then on who they sign, seven levels deep. That share is paid out of the platform's 9.9%, never out of what your recruits earn. Tier 1 (direct sponsor) is 4% with an annual cap of $37,800; deeper tiers taper from there.

For a manager with a deep roster, that turns introductions into a durable income line on top of traditional commission. You are rewarded for growth you already do — signing talent, building the bench — without docking the client's take-home.

Operational clarity without becoming the storefront

• Escrow on every order — payment releases when the booking happens or the drop lands.
• Permanent buyer records — memorabilia stays memorabilia when it changes hands.
• Fulfillment tracking — shipping estimates, confirmation and refunds live in one place.
• One dashboard for GMV, net after fees, live auctions and pending redemptions.

You stay the strategist. The marketplace is the storefront and the settlement layer. That split is what lets a management practice scale direct-to-fan revenue without building its own checkout, escrow or affiliate stack.

What to do next

Walk a client through a first listing — a single booking or a small drop is enough to see the flow. Apply on the waitlist as a star (or have them apply with you as the sponsor), then open the revenue-share page once you are signed in to claim your organization link.
