WTF is this? How do they make money? They have picture of 10+ people as a "team", on their help page

it just says "We offer party add-ons and merch on our online store!"

Their online store has like 2 tshirts, stickers, sun glasses and a bag?!

It’s… unclear. Right now their stated business model is explicitly to burn VC cash: https://x.com/partiful/status/1620481353396658176
They probably don't make much money. Their wikipedia page says they got $20m series A funding.
VC for now, offer ticketing with a fee later.
That's actually an interesting plan! That totally might work
