Events & networking · with the receipts

Run events people
actually connect at —
and watch it happen live.

Most event software stops at selling a ticket. My Connect Buddy runs the whole floor: passports visitors redeem at vendor booths, qualified leads for the vendors, attendee-to-attendee connections — and a live command centre that shows who's engaging, who's paid, and what you've collected, while the event is on.

The pain you came here with

Five things every event organizer knows
and most event software has given up on.

We've heard these from every organizer who's tried to run an event that's more than a ticket sale. Nod at any of them? They're exactly what we built My Connect Buddy to fix.

01

I ran the event — but I can't prove it worked.

You end the day with a guest list and a feeling. Which vendors got traffic? Did visitors actually engage, or just wander? Did anyone connect? By the time you piece it together from ticket exports and vendor emails, next year's planning has already started.

A live command centre: who's engaging with whom, redemptions and revenue as they happen, your top vendors ranked by real visitor traffic — the ROI, while the event is still on.

02

My vendors leave with a stack of business cards they never follow up.

Vendors pay for a booth, talk to dozens of people, and walk away with nothing they can act on. No proof of traffic, no way to reach the people who stopped by. So they question the spend — and don't rebook.

Every booth scan is a qualified, consent-gated lead. Vendors see their traffic live and can buy the day's lead list — a reason to come back, and a new line of revenue for you.

03

Ticketing, check-in, redemptions and follow-up live in five different tools.

One platform sells the tickets, a spreadsheet tracks the vendors, redemptions happen on paper, networking happens on luck, and the reporting happens in your head. Data drifts between them and nothing reconciles.

Tickets, passports, booth redemptions, networking, leads, payments and reporting — one platform, one login, one source of truth. Money in one clean picture via Stripe.

04

People show up, wander, and leave without connecting.

A networking event where nobody networks is just a room with drinks. Attendees don't know who to meet, you can't see who's engaging, and afterwards there's no record of a single connection made.

A connection sheet that captures who met whom with a scan. See engagement live, spot the wallflowers, and give everyone a record of the people they actually met.

05

I want to run a passport experience — but there's no software for it.

Wine passports, taste trails, fair passports, stamp-your-way-around experiences — magical for attendees, a nightmare of wristbands and paper cards to run. So you don't, or you cobble it together and hope.

Sell multi-ticket passports (buy one glass or ten), redeem once per booth, capture where and when. Visitors plan their trail; you watch it fill in on a map, live.

One platform, two kinds of event

Pick the shape your event actually is.

A trade expo and a networking mixer are not the same event, so they don't run the same way. My Connect Buddy does both — and the reporting speaks each one's language.

3-way redemption

Expos, fairs & passport trails

Visitors buy tickets or a multi-stop passport. They redeem a perk at each vendor booth — a free glass on a wine passport, a sample, a stamp. Every redemption is a tracked visit and a consent-gated lead.

  • Multi-ticket passports — buy one perk or ten
  • Redeem once per booth, with time + location
  • Vendor lead lists + booth revenue
  • The live triangle: who visited whom, top booths, money in
2-way networking

Mixers, meetups & conferences

Attendees connect with a scan. You get a live connection sheet — who's met whom, who's engaging, who hasn't connected yet — so you can nudge the room and prove the night actually built relationships.

  • Scan-to-connect between attendees
  • Live connection graph — engagement at a glance
  • Spot who hasn't connected and nudge them
  • Everyone leaves with a record of who they met
How it works

From set-up to sold-out floor, in three steps.

  1. 1

    Set up your event

    Create the event, choose its shape (redemption or networking), set ticket or passport pricing, and invite your vendors. Free to start — you're live the same day.

  2. 2

    People show up and connect

    Visitors buy passports and redeem perks at booths; attendees connect with a scan. Vendors capture leads. Everything runs from the phone in their pocket — no app store, no hardware.

  3. 3

    Watch the ROI, live

    Your command centre fills in as it happens: redemptions, revenue, top vendors, connections made, who's engaging and who isn't. Afterwards, it's all still there — no CSV gymnastics.

Your next event could be the one everyone
actually remembers.

Set it up today, watch it come alive, and end the day knowing exactly what it was worth. Expos, fairs, passports and networking — one platform.
