Event Planning Should Be Exciting, Not Exhausting

We've seen the struggles Kenyan organizers deal with — and built solutions for every one

Late Payments, Empty Promises

Buyers say "I'll send later" but later never comes. You're left chasing payments instead of planning your event.

Gate Chaos & Fake Tickets

Long queues, disputed entries, and photocopied tickets. Your big day turns into a verification nightmare.

Complicated Systems

Dashboards designed for programmers, not people. You need a degree just to figure out how to edit your event.

Fees That Add Up

Platform fee, processing fee, withdrawal fee, surprise fee. By the time you get paid, half your revenue is gone.

Support That Disappears

Automated emails and chatbots when your event is hours away. No human, no help, no solution.

Where Did My Money Go?

Funds held for weeks, unclear settlement dates, and no straight answers about when you'll actually get paid.

Pata Ticket was built to fix exactly this.
