# Virtual & Hybrid Event Ticketing for India

> Sell seats for a webinar, an online workshop or a hybrid conference — joining details delivered with the ticket, in-person and online tiers side by side, certificates after.

## Overview

Vihaya Events handles virtual and hybrid event ticketing in India. Free for free webinars; 1.75–4.5% platform fee on paid seats. Joining instructions travel with the ticket email, online and in-person attendance can be sold as separate tiers on one event, and self-serve certificates can be issued to attendees afterwards. UPI checkout via Razorpay throughout.

## How it works

### 1. Create the event

Mark it online or hybrid, and add the platform you are using — the attendance mode is published in the event's structured data too.

### 2. Add the joining details

Put the meeting link and instructions where they travel with the ticket, so attendees are not hunting an email on the day.

### 3. Sell online and in-person tiers

A hybrid event can sell both on one page, with independent capacity for the room and for the stream.

### 4. Take payment by UPI

Attendees pay by UPI, card or net banking and receive their ticket immediately.

### 5. Remind before it starts

Scheduled WhatsApp and email reminders with the joining link, which is what actually drives attendance for online events.

### 6. Issue certificates

Publish certificates afterwards for attendees to collect themselves, with a verifiable ID on each.

## Key features for Virtual & Hybrid Event Ticketing

- **Joining details with the ticket** — Meeting link and instructions delivered with the ticket rather than in a separate mail that gets lost.
- **Hybrid tiers** — In-person and online attendance as separate tiers with independent capacity, on the same event page.
- **Reminders that drive turnout** — Scheduled reminders before the session — the single biggest lever on attendance for a free online event.
- **Certificates** — Self-serve certificates for attendees, each carrying a verifiable ID, with eligibility you control.
- **Correct structured data** — Online and hybrid events publish the right attendance mode and a virtual location in their schema, rather than being described as in-person.
- **Free webinars cost nothing** — No monthly fee and no per-attendee charge on free events.

## FAQ

### How do attendees receive the joining link?

The joining instructions travel with the ticket, so the attendee has them from the moment they register rather than waiting for a separate email on the day. You can also schedule reminders before the session that carry the link again.

### Can I run a hybrid event with both in-person and online attendees?

Yes. Sell in-person and online attendance as separate ticket tiers on the same event, each with its own capacity and price. The room can sell out while the stream stays open, and QR check-in applies to the in-person tier at the venue.

### Do online events get the right search-engine markup?

Yes. An online or hybrid event publishes the correct attendance mode and a virtual location in its structured data, rather than being described as a purely in-person event, which is what search engines expect for an online listing.

### Can I issue certificates to webinar attendees?

Yes. Publish a certificate once and attendees collect their own PDF from their account — nothing is emailed. Eligibility is yours to set, and every certificate carries a verifiable ID that can be checked independently.

### What does a free webinar cost?

Nothing. Free events carry no platform fee and no monthly subscription. The 1.75–4.5% fee applies only when you charge for seats.
