The Challenge

Our Solution

Eventda provides multiple options of venue spaces based on:

  • location
  • number of participants
  • food service
  • transparency to booking cancellation policy

Eventda fetches live prices from its Venue Management System (“VMS”) and publishes on the front-end for comparison purposes. With inventories being managed directly from VMS, Eventda is able to offer instant booking functionality, enabling users to obtain instant booking confirmation. By providing great visibility, Eventda intends to help venue spaces to improve their utilisation rate by providing following informations to venue providers:

Eventda helps businesses save costs when booking for spaces by democratizing corporate rates to all businesses. With integrated and centralized billing, businesses will have only one contact point – Eventda for all their spaces booking. They will also have integrated payment solutions as Eventda works with Saas, government agencies etc.
