Event Parlour
One account. Unlimited workspaces.
Every event under control.
The event platform that puts organizers first
Scattered Tools, Scattered Mind
Meet Wayne. He organizes events for Angular Kenya, Unstuck Labs, and GDG Pwani. Three communities. Three different accounts. Three separate dashboards. He's drowning in tabs.
One account. Multiple workspaces. Switch effortlessly.
Just Ticket Machines
Most platforms see organizers as ticket sellers and attendees as buyers. That's it. No relationship. No experience. No community. Everyone forgets each other exists.
Track spending. Follow organizers. Transfer tickets to friends.
The Communication Black Hole
500 attendees at GDG Nairobi, Room A45. Venue change—everyone needs to move to Room G67. How do you reach them? WhatsApp groups? Email? Good luck.
Channels for instant announcements, updates, and recaps.
The Google Forms Era
Looking for keynote speakers? Most organizers resort to Google Forms, spreadsheets, and endless email threads. Applications get lost. Follow-ups are manual.
Generate speaker links. Vet applications. Toggle visibility.
Zero Marketing Support
Ticketing platforms take their cut but offer zero marketing support. You create the event, you promote it, you do everything. They just process payments.
We promote your events across our community channels.
Hidden Fees Everywhere
Processing fees, service fees, platform fees, convenience fees—you're nickel-and-dimed at every turn. And refunds? Good luck navigating that maze.
No hidden fees. Clear pricing. Easy refunds. Period.
Everything under one roof.
Focus on moments, not chaos.
Smart Workspaces
One account, unlimited workspaces. Manage multiple communities from one dashboard. Invite teams, assign roles, track revenue per workspace.
Event Channels
Real-time announcements, venue changes, recap links, photo galleries, session recordings. Keep your community engaged before, during, and after.
Speaker Pipeline
Generate shareable application links, collect submissions, vet speakers, approve with one click. Display on your event page or keep private.
Tickets That Work
Multiple ticket types, QR scanning at entry, easy transfers to friends, purchase history tracking. An experience, not just a transaction.
Team Roles
Admin, Moderator, Member—assign permissions that make sense. Invite volunteers for check-in, give marketing access to analytics.
Local Payments
M-Pesa, Paystack, and Stripe. Pay how you want, in currencies that work for you. Transparent fees, easy withdrawals, no surprises.
Real Analytics
Track sales, understand your audience, monitor check-ins in real-time. Data that helps you make better events.
Verified Organizers
KYC verification builds trust. Attendees know they're buying from legitimate organizers. Faster payouts, higher limits.
