How School Event Management & Ticketing Works in Minga
From the first post to the last student out the door, every event lives in one place.
Step 01 of 05
Create and promote any event
Post events to the school feed and invite the groups that should be there, from clubs to whole grades.
Step 02 of 05
Manage ticket sales and guest lists
Sell or hand out digital tickets right in Minga, and see every student and plus-one on one guest list. Sold tickets somewhere else? Upload them and the list is ready at the door.
Step 03 of 05
Check everyone in, whichever way you like
Scan a digital or printed student ID, enter an ID number or a name, or let attendees check themselves in with a QR code. No paper lists, no long lines.
Step 04 of 05
Know who’s cleared to attend
Digital ID stickers control who can attend each event. Automated consequences can remove access until a student earns it back.
Step 05 of 05
Know who came, and when
Every check-in and check-out is time-stamped, so you know exactly who is at the event.
See it in action
From the big dance to a Tuesday club meeting, every event runs the same way, so students know where to go and staff know who’s there.

The Difference
Checking Names Off a List Keeps Everyone Waiting. Minga Clears the Line.
