# Expo & Trade Show Ticketing for India

> Visitor passes, exhibitor passes and day passes on one page — with the business data a trade show needs, multi-day entry, and QR scanning that handles gate volume.

## Overview

Vihaya Events runs expo and trade show ticketing in India. Free for free-entry expos; 1.75–4.5% platform fee on paid passes. Supports visitor, exhibitor, delegate and day-pass tiers with independent capacity, captures company, designation and industry through custom registration fields, and handles multi-day events as sub-events with per-day gate scanning.

## How it works

### 1. Create the expo

Add dates, halls and a description of who should attend. A multi-day expo is set up with one sub-event per day if you sell day passes.

### 2. Set up pass types

Visitor, exhibitor, delegate, student and VIP passes, each with its own price, capacity and sale window.

### 3. Capture business data

Company, designation, industry, GST number and areas of interest — the fields that make a visitor list useful to your exhibitors.

### 4. Sell and confirm

Visitors pay by UPI, card or net banking and receive a QR pass immediately, or register free if entry is free.

### 5. Scan at the gate

Scan QR passes at each hall entrance. Live counts show footfall by day and by pass type.

### 6. Report to exhibitors

Export attendance and registration data so exhibitors get a real picture of who came, by day and by segment.

## Key features for Expo & Trade Show Ticketing

- **Visitor and exhibitor tiers** — Separate pass types with independent pricing, capacity and sale windows, including free visitor entry alongside paid delegate passes.
- **Day passes** — A multi-day expo can be set up with one sub-event per day, so a Friday pass is refused at Saturday's gate rather than admitted.
- **Business data capture** — Company, designation, industry and GST number as custom fields — the data an exhibitor actually wants from a lead list.
- **High-volume check-in** — QR scanning at the gate with live footfall by day and pass type, and a scanner that can be scoped to a specific hall or day.
- **Group and corporate bookings** — One booking covering a whole team, each attendee with their own pass and QR code.
- **Attendance reporting** — Export registrations and check-ins with all captured fields, so post-show reporting to exhibitors is a download rather than a rebuild.

## FAQ

### Can I sell separate visitor and exhibitor passes?

Yes. Create unlimited pass types, each with its own price, capacity and sale window — visitor, exhibitor, delegate, student and VIP are all common. Free visitor entry can run alongside paid delegate passes on the same event page.

### How do I handle a multi-day expo with day passes?

Set the expo up as a mega event with one sub-event per day. Each day carries its own capacity and its own gate. Because a scanner can be scoped to a single day, a Friday pass presented at Saturday's gate is refused rather than silently admitted.

### What visitor information can I collect?

Custom registration fields capture company name, designation, industry, GST number, areas of interest and anything else you need. This is what turns a headcount into a lead list your exhibitors will value.

### Can the gate handle high footfall?

Yes. Check-in is QR-based and each scan is processed in well under a second, with several scanners running at once at different entrances. The desk shows live footfall by day and by pass type as people arrive.

### What does it cost for a free-entry expo?

Nothing. Free events carry no platform fee and no monthly subscription on Vihaya Events. The 1.75–4.5% fee applies only to passes you actually charge for.
