WHAT ORGANISERS ARE SAYING

“It’s a great idea! We were juggling spreadsheets and Facebook messages, and handling cash on the day — we had no idea how many attendees we’d get or needed to cater for. This is exactly the kind of service that helps me plan properly, manage the event, and keep attendee details for future invites instead of anonymous cash payments.”

– Kelly A., UK board-gaming organiser

Benefits for organisers

  • No more handling cash — reduce risk and admin; everything is recorded online.
  • Advance bookings give you a clear idea of expected numbers for staffing and table planning.
  • Attendee details captured for safer capacity management and future promotion.
  • Know who actually attended — attendance lists help with wristband checks, capacity compliance and future invites.
  • Easy communications — email booked attendees with one send.
  • Clear audit trail for income, refunds and attendance reports.
  • Keep events full with capacity caps, close dates and handy CSV exports.

What attendees experience

Players can book online in minutes, pay securely, and receive instant confirmation by email. Advance booking secures their place — no more uncertainty or missing out. On the day, there’s no cash-on-the-door hassle — everything is already sorted, and organisers can see who has checked in.

Many organisers currently rely on Facebook posts and ‘Interested/Going’ clicks to guess numbers, then collect cash on the door. BookitZone offers a smoother, more reliable system — with secure online bookings and attendee details captured in advance.
