Kanonu Events is the studio's product platform — registration, visual seating charts, payments, QR check-in, and real-time board dashboards for nonprofits, galas, golf tournaments, and community fundraisers. Built by the same studio that designed and shipped the apps it powers.
Most ticketing platforms were designed for transactions, then bolted on fundraising, then bolted on seating, then bolted on check-in. Kanonu Events was designed for the event — one platform across every surface, so the team running the event isn't running five vendors at the same time. The board sees one dashboard. The guests see one site. The volunteers scan one QR code.
Sell tables, sponsorships, and tickets in real time. When the last seat in a section goes, the next guest sees that. No double-booking, no spreadsheets at midnight.
Stripe-backed checkout with Apple Pay, Google Pay, and card-on-file for repeat guests. PCI-compliant out of the box. Funds settle to the nonprofit's account, not a middleman.
Design your floor. Sell every seat. Guests pick their table, see who they're sitting with, and the chart updates live. Sponsor tables, VIP rows, and accessible seating all supported.
Volunteers scan tickets from a phone — no apps to install, no scanners to rent. Guest list and seat assignments sync to every check-in station in real time.
The board sees what was sold, what was raised, and where the gap is — in real time. Reports the treasurer can hand to the auditor. No CSV exports required.
Run an annual gala, a spring golf tournament, and a fall fundraiser from the same organization account. Brand each event differently. Share the donor list across all of them.
Create your organization, brand the event, design the floor, set ticket and table prices. No engineering required.
Share the link. Guests register and pay. Sponsor tables fill up. The dashboard updates in real time. Funds settle directly.
Volunteers scan QR codes at the door. Seat charts go up at the entrance. The board gets a final read-out the same night, not the next quarter.
3% + $0.99 per transaction. That's it. No setup fees, no monthly minimums, no long-term contracts. Pricing matches what nonprofits actually have to budget — a percentage of what you raise, paid only when you raise it.

Both are great platforms — and we recommend them for events that don't need visual seating, sponsor tier management, or real-time board dashboards. Kanonu Events is built for the events where those things matter: the annual gala with assigned tables, the golf tournament with hole sponsorships, the scholarship banquet where the board chair wants a live number on stage.
Same-day for a standard event. Sign up, create the organization, brand the event, configure ticket and table prices, and share the link. White-glove setup with the studio is available for the first event if you'd like the design to land just right.
Directly to your organization's bank account via Stripe. We never custody the funds. Settlement is on Stripe's standard timeline (2–7 days depending on your account). The 3% + $0.99 is deducted at the time of each transaction, not at month-end.
Yes — Kanonu Events is the studio's product platform, designed and built end-to-end. If your organization already has a brand, site, or app engagement with the studio, the Events platform integrates cleanly into the same visual system.
Sometimes — for the right shape of engagement. The platform is opinionated by design so that one team can keep it consistent across all clients. For deeper customization (custom flows, integrations with existing systems of record), that's a separate engagement under the studio's regular tiers.
