How it works
Four steps, nothing hidden.
The deposit is a mechanism, not the point — it makes the reminder and the check-in mean something. Here is the whole path, including where the money sits at every step.
The path
From reservation to released deposit.
Reserve
The guest confirms an event or accepts an invite. A small deposit is pre-authorised on their card — a hold, not a charge. No money moves; the spot is locked.
Get ready
Feevent sends reminders, directions and a calendar invite, and offers help if plans start to wobble — running late, wrong address, locked door.
Check in
At the door, a QR scan records the arrival in about two seconds. The guest shows their code, or scans the creator's — whichever the event uses.
Deposit released
Check-in releases the hold immediately on Feevent's side; the guest's bank typically processes it within 1–3 business days.
Where the money goes
Every outcome, spelled out.
Rules are set by the creator and shown before reserving — the outcome is never a surprise.
Hold released, in full
Check-in releases the entire deposit back to the guest. Showing up costs nothing.
Hold released, seat re-offered
Cancelling before the event's deadline releases the full hold — and the waitlist gets the seat.
Deposit goes to the creator
Under the policy shown at reservation, the deposit covers the creator's time and the empty seat — never more than the deposit itself.
One account, both sides
Everyone starts as a guest. Hosting is an extension of the same Feevent login — switch between attending and creating without a second account. Available on the web, iOS and Android.
