Create and publish your first event

Set up an event listing, ticket types, fees, and publish so guests can buy tickets on Ordafy.

In a nutshell

Follow the steps below. Use On this page to jump between sections.

Before you begin

You need an Ordafy Business account with Events turned on for your organisation. Confirm your payout setup is complete so ticket sales can settle.

Create the event

  1. Open Events in Ordafy Business.
  2. Choose Create event.
  3. Add a clear title, date, time, location, and description guests will understand.
  4. 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.
