Book the hall only when enough people commit

Set a minimum number of guests. People reserve a spot without paying. When the minimum is reached, Yano emails everyone a link to pay you. If it isn’t reached, you don’t go ahead — and nobody paid, so there’s nothing to refund.

Free to start. Free events cost ₹0.

Sound familiar?

Hall ka advance ₹15,000. Agar sirf 9 ticket bike toh nuksaan mera. Aur pehle paise leke show cancel kiya toh refund ka jhanjhat.

How Yano handles it

Minimum audience goal

Set the number you need. The event page shows how many have joined so far.

On the day: When the goal is reached, the event is confirmed and everyone who reserved with an email gets a link to pay you.

No payments until it’s confirmed

Reserving is free, so if the goal isn’t reached there’s no money to return.

Promo codes

Create codes with a flat or percentage discount and a usage limit, for students or early supporters.

What your guests get

A page showing how close the show is to happening
An email the moment it’s confirmed, with a link to pay

Questions organisers ask

What happens if the goal isn’t reached?

You simply don’t confirm the show. Nobody has paid, so there are no refunds to handle.

Do guests pay when they reserve?

No. They pay only after the goal is reached, using the link in the email they receive.

Where does the money go?

Straight to your UPI or your own payment gateway. Yano never holds it.
