Create and publish your first event
Set up an event listing, ticket types, and fees, then publish so guests can buy tickets on Ordafy.
In a nutshell
Before you begin
You need an Ordafy Business account with Events available for your organisation. Finish payout setup so ticket sales can settle to your bank.
Create the event
- Open Events in Ordafy Business.
- Choose Create event.
- Add a clear title, date, time, location, and description guests will understand.
- Set capacity and any house rules for entry.
Add ticket types
Create ticket types with prices and quantities (for example General admission or Early bird). Choose who pays the platform fee — guests at checkout, or your business — and review the totals shown before you publish.
Set refund rules
Write a short refund and cancellation policy. Guests see it before they pay. Keep it consistent with what you can honour on the day.
Publish and share
Preview the public event page, then publish. Share the link or let guests find it in the Ordafy catalogue. Sales appear in your Events orders and attendees list.
