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.
