BAND 04 · THE ARGUMENT
In the age of AI, a community that was never handed infrastructure can build its own.
PAY THE DØLLS is real infrastructure for the queer community :: a marketplace where artists, brands, creatives and divas buy, sell, list and promote their work in one place, under one checkout. the culture creates the value. the culture should get paid.
Here's where we start :: the store, the CLUB, five houses. Here's where it goes :: licensing, stores, pages, tickets, fundraising, on rails we own. DØLLs get paid first. Not a promise in a footer :: a line on every receipt.
THE RECEIPT IS THE PROOF

BAND 06 · WHO BUILT IT
THE STORY
FOUNDED BY ZOE & TAYLOR. THEY BUILT THE RAILS BECAUSE NOBODY ELSE HAD.
ZOE · ZØ
FOUNDER
Artist, designer, DJ, creative technologist. New York City. She works in AI at a financial-services data company and builds PAY THE DØLLS.
TAYLOR
CO-FOUNDER
Co-founder of PAY THE DØLLS. Co-founded KŌR COLLECTIV :: vintage resale and modeling agency :: with ZØ.
It started because ZØ wanted one checkout. One place to sell the art, the designs, the funny shirts. Then the real question :: why is our money making everyone else rich? So they built the container :: the checkout, the payouts, the houses, the CLUB. Everything on this page is the machine, not the mood board.
