For organisers
Evento handles the ticketing, the money and the door. You handle the event.
Step one
Sign in with your email — you get a link, no password to remember. Then create an organisation or a club, with your city and a short description. This is the name attendees see.
A club works the same way as an organisation, but people can join it and you can run members-only events.
Step two
Invite the people who help you run things, and give each of them a role. Owners handle payouts and billing. Admins create and manage events. Staff can only scan tickets at the door.
Give volunteers the staff role. They can check people in without seeing your revenue or exporting your attendee list.
Step three
Submit your bank details and PAN once. This creates your payout account with Razorpay so ticket money can settle to you directly. Verification is not instant, so do it before you plan to sell.
Free events need none of this. You can publish and run them straight away.
Step four
Add the venue, date and description, then create your ticket types — a name, a price, and how many exist. Price zero means free. Publish when you are ready, and share the link.
An event with paid tickets will not publish until your payouts are verified. That guard exists so you never sell a ticket you cannot be paid for.
Step five
Open the scanner link on any phone and point the camera at each ticket. You see the attendee's name and ticket type. Already-used tickets are refused, with the time of the earlier scan.
The scanner is a web page, so hand the link to whoever is on the gate. Nobody installs anything.
What it costs
| Free tickets | No charge | Unlimited events, unlimited free tickets. |
| Paid tickets | 2% platform fee | Deducted from your share when the attendee pays. |
| Payment processing | Razorpay's own fee | Charged by Razorpay per their published rates. |
| Monthly fee | None | No subscription, no minimum, no setup cost. |
Applicable GST is charged on the platform fee. You remain responsible for any GST due on your own ticket sales — see the terms of use.
Worth knowing before you commit
You set your own refund policy and issue refunds yourself from your Razorpay dashboard, then cancel the ticket in Evento to release the seat. There is no automatic self-service refund button for attendees yet.
The scanner verifies each ticket against the server, so the phone at the gate needs working mobile data. If your venue has no signal, plan for it — download your attendee list beforehand as a fallback.
If you need promotional pricing, create a separate ticket type at the lower price and share that link with the people it is meant for.
Recurring events do not repeat automatically yet. A weekly run club creates each week's event, which takes about a minute.
