Create an Event Site
Categorized under: Web-Design-Articles
Today I’ve been doing research on creating an event type of site. I registered with evite.com and sellyourevent.com as well as welovefestivals.com
This is step one to realizing an event driven site type of business.
Here’s what the “Sell Your Events” site’s emails states they can do. The most relevant item I require is payment processing.
Hello zeus,
Congratulations your account is now active on SellYourEvents.com. Welcome to our service, we hope that we can help make organizing your events easier and faster and we can make your event marketing look great!
This email is meant for your reference as it explains the most important SellYourEvent features and answers questions we frequently hear.
—— Setting Up My Event Webpage ——
Everything begins on the main page once you login to the site. This takes you to the MyEvent Manager page. Please go to http://www.sellyourevents.com and login, then you will be redirected to MyEvent Manager.
Select the Add Event button.
You will now be in the event creation process – there are six steps where you input your event information, pricing information, and allows you to customize the look and feel of website that your attendees will see and use to register or buy tickets. Creating your own customized event page should take about 5-10 minutes.
In order to accept credit card payments you will need to have a PayPal account. This allows payments to be received securely and deposited directly into your PayPal account. Please see the next section for additional details. SellYourEvents maintains a strict privacy policy.
——Enabling Online Payments – Accepting Credit Cards——
All you need to do is create a Paypal Account. Registering with PayPal allows your users to pay with any credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Amex) and you to receive credit card payments instantly. Sales on your event webpage are instantly deposited directly into your PayPal account. PayPal, the world’s leading online payment provider, ensures your security through a number of measures.
Creating a PayPal account and setting it up to receive credit cards should take under 10 minutes. We have prepared detailed instructions with images to help you set up an account easily. Please take a look at the steps outlined at this link, http://www.sellyourevents.com/paypal_info.aspx
Once you have a PayPal account, all you need to do is provide us with the email address you used to set up your PayPal account to enable you to receive payment on your website. PayPal also enables secure fund transfers between your PayPal account and your bank account, so you will easily be able to access your event proceeds/revenue through your bank branch or an ATM.
