How Venue Commissions Work with VooGlue:A Simple Guide


At VooGlue, we make it easy for venues to turn their space into a curated gallery, earn from art sales, and support artists at the same time.

Most VooGlue Sales Are Commission-Free

VooGlue is a zero-commission platform for most venues and artists.

When an artist allows their work to hang in a venue for free, the venue benefits from having original art on its walls at no cost. By selling directly to the public without venue commission, artists can also keep their prices more competitive, which can help attract buyers.

For venues whose business model depends on earning commission from art sales, VooGlue also supports commissions on a sliding scale. Here we are mainly talking about traditional art galleries, rather than cafés, restaurants and other venues where art enhances an existing business.

When Is Commission Applied?

Where a venue commission applies, it is payable when:

The artwork is listed in the venue’s VooGlue catalogue.
The artwork is hanging in the venue when the sale is made.
The sale is completed through the VooGlue platform, either through the smart QR displayed alongside the artwork or online.

This ensures that sales can be directly attributed to the venue.

No Hassle, No Chasing

There is no need for venues to request commission payments or follow up with artists.

When a sale occurs through VooGlue, our system automatically recognises the venue’s involvement, calculates the applicable commission and pays it directly.

We handle the process so venues can focus on creating an attractive and engaging environment for their customers.

Make Sure It’s in Your Catalogue

To qualify for commission, your venue must be approved to receive commissions on the VooGlue platform, and the artworks hanging in your venue must also be listed in your VooGlue venue catalogue.

This links each artwork to your venue and allows the smart QR system to correctly track the sale and pay the appropriate commission.
