Pubs, hotels, live-music venues and hospitality teams often run events while managing staff, service and the venue itself. MyEventLane gives organisers one place to publish the event, manage bookings and prepare for the door.
Benefits
Publish a clear event page that is easy to share from your venue channels.
Run free RSVPs or paid tickets with your own connected Stripe account.
Use attendee lists, browser-based mobile check-in, QR scanning and manual lookup at the door.
Give attendees Apple Wallet and Google Wallet pass options alongside their ticket experience.
Who it is for
Pubs, hotels, live-music venues, function spaces, hospitality groups and other Australian venues that host their own events.
What to prepare
Bring the event date, doors time, capacity, age restrictions and accessibility information together before publishing.
Decide whether the event needs free RSVPs, paid tickets or a mix of ticket types.
Confirm who will manage the door and which compatible mobile devices will be used for check-in.
For paid events, connect the organiser's own Stripe account so Stripe processes payments and manages payouts to the nominated bank account.
Pricing
Planned launch fees:
Free RSVP has no MEL ticket fee.
Standard paid tickets have a 2.5% MEL fee on the discounted ticket amount, including GST.
Eligible merchandise and add-ons have a separate 3% GST-inclusive MEL fee.
Organisers absorb MEL and their actual Stripe processing costs from sale proceeds.
Buyers pay the displayed all-in price without an added card surcharge or additional MEL booking fee. Organisers may set their price to cover costs.
Ticket tax treatment and organiser GST status remain separate.
Paid checkout availability will be confirmed before you commit.
Frequently asked questions

Yes. MEL supports free RSVP events as well as paid ticketed events.
Can we use our own Stripe account?
Yes. Paid-event organisers connect their own Stripe account.
Do we need dedicated scanning hardware?
No dedicated MEL scanner is required. The check-in workflow is browser based and supports QR scanning and manual attendee lookup on compatible mobile devices.
Does MyEventLane replace our venue POS or hotel system?
No. MEL is focused on the event journey: publishing, RSVPs or ticketing, attendees, check-in and related event tools.
