Organizer questions
Promotion FAQ
Clear expectations help the listing move from lead capture to review and payment matching.
How quickly can a promoted event go live?
Most promoted listings can be reviewed after the event details, ticket link, and payment or invoice reference are matched. Featured listing placement runs for 30 days.
Do I need a ticket link before advertising?
A secure https:// ticket or event link is strongly recommended and required before a paid listing can send visitors to an external buying path.
Can I request an invoice or EFT instead of direct checkout?
Yes. Submit the event details from the advertise form and Happenly will generate a reference so invoice, EFT, or contact follow-up can be matched to the lead.
Does promotion guarantee ticket sales?
No. Sponsored placement improves visibility and creates a clearer path to the organizer ticket link, but sales depend on demand, price, timing, and the event offer.
Paid placement terms are available in the advertising terms or the advertiser media kit.
