Guides for organizers

Practical pieces about the decisions that are easy to get wrong: what to charge, how to staff a door with no signal, and how the public directory decides what to show.

  • Pricing a ticket in Lagos

    What a Lagos ticket price has to cover, how the processing fee sits on top of it, and why two ticket types with their own stock sell more than one number.

  • Check-in without a network

    How the gate keeps scanning with no signal: a signed pass list on the phone, admissions queued on the device, and one rule the server still enforces.

  • Getting into the directory

    What makes an event appear on the directory and its city pages, why an unpublished draft is invisible, and what the city and category hubs need to be indexed.

What these are, and what they are not

Each piece describes how the software behaves and what that means for a decision you are about to make. They are not marketing pages with a headline and three bullets, and they do not carry numbers that go stale: where a rate or a window is a setting, the piece says so and points at the screen that shows today’s value.

If a question is about a specific order, a pass or a payout, help is the faster route, and contact reaches a person.
