## Why switch from MakeMyPass

### No subscription lock-in
MakeMyPass charges ₹5,000–₹15,000/month whether you run one event or none. Vihaya Events charges only when you sell paid tickets (1.9–4.9%) — and free events stay free. For organizers running 1–4 events a year, you save ₹60K–₹180K annually.

### AI tooling included
Vihaya Events ships an AI form builder (auto-generates registration fields from a one-line event description) and AI website builder (auto-generates a branded event page). MakeMyPass does not offer these.

### WhatsApp marketing built-in
WhatsApp gets 95%+ open rates in India — significantly higher than email. Vihaya includes WhatsApp bulk campaigns for ticket reminders, venue changes, and post-event surveys. MakeMyPass does not.

### Faster payouts
Razorpay settles ticket revenue to your bank in T+2 working days on Vihaya Events. MakeMyPass typical settlement is T+7.

## FAQ

### Is Vihaya Events free for college fests, hackathons, and community events?
Yes. Free events are completely free on Vihaya Events — no platform fee, no monthly subscription. That covers most college fests, hackathons, workshops, and community meetups. Only paid tickets incur the 1.9–4.9% platform fee.

### What payment methods do attendees see at checkout?
UPI (PhonePe, Google Pay, Paytm, BHIM), credit cards, debit cards, RuPay, net banking, and wallets via Razorpay. International Visa/Mastercard/Amex cards are also accepted.

### How long does it take to migrate from MakeMyPass?
Most organizers move in under 30 minutes: sign up, create the event, configure ticket tiers, and import the registration form via the AI form builder (paste the old form's description and Vihaya regenerates equivalent fields).

### Can I export attendee data to a CSV?
Yes — full CSV export of all attendee data is included on every event, free or paid.
