Best practices for running events on MJX Events
A practical checklist for organizers — before launch, the weeks of selling, the event day at the gate, and after the event.
Good events on MJX Events follow the same rhythm: set up early, share often, prepare the gate the day before, and close the books after. Use these checklists.
#Two weeks before: set up
- Add your bank account under Get paid early — verification can take a day or two, and paid events can't go live without it.
- Create the event, add a cover picture and a clear description (time, venue, what is included).
- Use ticket types people understand: Stag, Couple, Family (4), Kids. Add a one-line Description where it helps ("Bring age proof").
- Multi-day event? Make day passes and an all-days pass.
- Decide who pays the charges (Setup → Checkout).
- Upload your ticket picture and check See a sample ticket.
- Add past event photos so first-time buyers trust you.
#While selling: every few days
- Share the link and the Status poster on WhatsApp; ask friends, sellers and promoters to share too.
- Use
?utm_source=on links you post, and check Insights (Pro) to see what works. - Print one batch per shop or seller, and check Given · Sold · Collected on Sellers.
- Collect money from sellers regularly using To collect from sellers on Payouts.
- Watch Seats left; add seats or close a type when needed.
#The day before: prepare the gate
- Send the scanner link and PIN to each gatekeeper; ask each to open it and type a gate name.
- In the Android app, open the scanner once with internet so the phone has the ticket list for offline scanning.
- Mark bulk passes sold (Mark all sold) and add buyer mobiles for event-QR batches.
- Export the attendee CSV as a backup.
- Brief the gate: green = in, amber = already used, red = send to the help desk.
#Event day
- Keep a help desk with the organizer's phone open on Attendees to search by mobile or code.
- Use UPI QR sale or Record sale for walk-ins. With your own UPI ID, check your own app or soundbox before tapping Payment received.
- Watch Gate phones on Overview — a phone "Last seen" long ago may have lost power.
- Never re-share the scanner PIN publicly. If a phone is lost, make a New PIN.
#After the event
- Close sales if you don't want late bookings (online booking closes by itself after the date).
- Check the thank-you rating in Insights.
- Match payouts to your bank statement using the UTR on each settled order.
- Download your GST invoice from Plan & invoices.
- Add the event's best photos to Past event photos for your next event.
- Use Duplicate this event next year.
#Questions people ask
How many gate phones do I need?
One phone per gate lane is a good start. Event-QR tickets take about 3 seconds each to type, against 1 second for a unique QR, so add one more gate for large crowds.
Should I mark printed passes sold before giving them out?
Yes, if they are already paid or free — use Mark all sold. Otherwise they are refused at the gate as NOT SOLD.
