[Create your book event, free](https://laces.run/app) [See how it works](#step-1) * Free for organizers * Mobile money & cards * Set up in minutes Photo: [Natalie Sierra](https://unsplash.com/@pandorademise) / [Unsplash](https://unsplash.com) ## Still doing it like this? * RSVPs scattered across WhatsApp replies, comments and direct messages. * No idea how many readers are really coming, so you guess at chairs, copies and snacks. * A launch-night guest list on paper that nobody can read afterwards. * Sending the venue, time and this month's book to each person, one message at a time. ## Create. Sell. Run. Get paid. ### Step 1: Create your club meeting or launch Set up your meeting or launch in minutes. Add the book, the venue and a cover photo, create your tickets, then share one link. * Create free tickets for RSVPs and registrations. * Charging for entry? Offer as many ticket types as you need, such as a standard seat and a seat with a signed copy, each with its own price and number of places. * Ask your own questions at registration, such as whether they've read the book or how they heard about you. ![Readers on sofas and wooden chairs discussing a book beneath paper bunting in a lending library](https://laces.run/_astro/break-1.Bs3qoKwU_1EeFgu.jpg?dpl=6ae73558b56098cc0f81b6ae) Photo: [Natalie Sierra](https://unsplash.com/@pandorademise) / [Unsplash](https://unsplash.com) ### Step 2: Register every reader Readers register from a link: no app to install, no account to create. * Free events cost nothing, to you or to your guests. * Readers get their ticket and receipt by email, with a QR code. * For paid tickets, readers pay by MTN MoMo, Airtel Money or card. ### Step 3: Welcome everyone Know who's coming, and check them in as they arrive. * See everyone who's registered, with the details and answers they gave. * Every ticket has a QR code. Scan it with the Laces app to check people in. * Invite your team to scan at the door. ![Two older readers looking through a book together in a wood-panelled library](https://laces.run/_astro/break-2.D59WXFLJ_2oynMK.jpg?dpl=6ae73558b56098cc0f81b6ae) Photo: [Centre for Ageing Better](https://unsplash.com/@ageing%5Fbetter) / [Unsplash](https://unsplash.com) ### Step 4: Get paid Charging for entry?
