Ticketed public events: app + website + daily settlement

Sociana Ticketed Events sells tickets through your own website and branded app, scans entry at the gate on staff phones and settles money daily into your own gateway account. Choose Flat, from ₹99,000 + GST with 0% Sociana commission, or Flex, ₹15 per ticket issued (minimum ₹15,000) with the fee capped at the Flat price. Both include QR entry with rules and a branded app; buyer data stays yours.

FAQ

Ticketed Events: common questions

When is Flat cheaper than Flex?

Flex costs ₹15 per ticket with a ₹15,000 minimum, so it reaches Flat's ₹99,000 at 6,600 tickets. Below that Flex is cheaper; above it you pay ₹99,000 either way, and Flat adds a custom layout and website.

What does Flex cost as a share of ticket value, including the gateway?

At 1,000 tickets of ₹1,500, Sociana Flex costs ₹15,000 plus about 2% gateway, roughly 3% of ticket value before GST on fees; the share falls as ticket prices rise. For a few hundred cheap tickets a percentage ticketing tool can cost less, and the ticket calculator shows when. Gateway charges are on actuals and can be passed on to buyers at checkout.

Does Sociana list my event on a marketplace or re-target my buyers?

No. Sociana is not a ticketing marketplace. Tickets sell on your website and app, money settles to your own gateway account, and buyer data stays with you; we do not market other events to your buyers.

Are free events charged?

Free tickets for up to 300 registrations on the shared Sociana app, joined by code, carry no Sociana fee. Paid add-ons such as WhatsApp messages are charged as listed.
