Event management software

Event management software that runs the whole night

Event management software for corporate events, built to run the entire evening in one place: tickets, seating and table plans, check-in, guest messaging and payments, instead of five separate systems stitched together. And when you book me to host, the software comes free.

Corporate event software, and the host, in one booking

Book me to host your event and the whole software platform comes with me, at no extra cost. You are not just getting an event host. You are getting the person on the microphone and the system that runs the tickets, the tables and the door, with one person accountable for the entire evening.

On its own the platform is £995 a year. Booked with me, it is included. That is a genuine reason to have one person hold the whole night together, rather than a host on one contract and a booking system on another.

Event management software for the whole evening

01

Ticketing and registration

Tiered tickets with named guests and a QR code for each one. A ticket is tied to a seat, so your guest list and your sales stay in one place.

02

Seating and table plans

Drag-and-drop table planning synced to the tickets. Move a guest and the plan, the list and the badge all update together.

03

Check-in on the door

Scan each guest’s QR code on arrival for a fast, calm door and a live view of who is actually in the room.

04

Its own app and website

Every event gets a branded microsite guests can add to their phone like an app, opening full screen in your colours.

05

Payments straight to you

Connect your own Stripe account, take Apple Pay and Google Pay, and the money settles directly to you with no added transaction fee.

06

Guest messaging

Reach everyone by email, SMS or WhatsApp, with scheduled and segmented sends and a full record of what went out.

What your guests actually see

A clean, branded space where guests buy their tickets, choose a table and find their seat, all from their phone. No spreadsheets, no separate ticketing site and no reconciling lists by hand afterwards.

On the night the same system checks them in at the door and keeps your guest list live, so you always know who is in the room.

It works even when the venue wi-fi does not

The platform runs on its own on-site server, so check-in, seating and live interaction keep working even when the venue network drops. It is built to survive a shaky signal, which is exactly when most event tech falls over.

That is one less thing to worry about on the night, and one less conversation with the venue’s IT team in the week before.

And when there is fundraising in the room

If your evening includes an auction, a pledge moment or a raffle, the same platform runs it: silent and live auctions, donations, Gift Aid capture and a gala screen. It is there when you need it, and out of the way when you do not.

As a charity auctioneer I have helped raise over £10m from the stage, so if the fundraising matters, you have the software and the person to run it in the same booking.

Common questions

What does corporate event software do?

It handles the moving parts of an event in one place: selling and managing tickets, building the seating and table plan, checking guests in on the door, taking payments, messaging guests and reporting afterwards, rather than juggling several separate tools.

Does it handle ticketing and seating together?

Yes. A ticket is tied to a seat, so your guest list, your sales and your table plan are the same source of truth. Move a guest and everything updates.

Can guests check in with a QR code?

Yes. Every guest gets their own QR code, scanned on arrival for a fast door and a live view of who is in the room.

Does it really work without venue wi-fi?

Yes. It runs on an on-site server and is built to keep working when the venue network drops, so the door and the seating do not stop.

Where does the money go?

Straight to you. You connect your own Stripe account, so payments settle directly to you with no added transaction fee from the platform.

Is it really free?

Free when you book me to host your event. On its own it is £995 a year.

Can you host the event as well?

Yes, that is the point. You get a professional host and MC and the platform that runs the evening, from one booking, with one person accountable.
