Why Durbar
Built around what goes wrong with ticketing today
Hidden fees, payouts held for weeks, scanners that fail when the network does, refunds nobody answers. Each of these is a reason Durbar works the way it does.
MoMo first
Buyers pay by MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash or AT Money, or by card, on any phone. No app to install and no account to make.
No hidden fees
The price on your page is the price at checkout. Our 3% comes from your share, in plain sight on your sales page, never as a surprise line for the buyer.
A gate that works offline
Tickets are signed and checked on the phone, so the queue keeps moving when the network doesn't. Each ticket is let in once, across every phone.
Refunds you can trust
Your refund policy is shown before people pay. Buyers refund themselves within it, and cancelling an event refunds everyone, back to MoMo or card.
We never hold your money
Payments go through Paystack, which sends your share straight to your MoMo or bank, usually the next working day.
Every region, the same day
Sign up from Bolgatanga or Takoradi and go live today. Locations use regions, towns, GhanaPost GPS and a map pin, not a list of big cities.
Gate
The queue keeps moving when the network doesn't
- Checked on the phone. Every ticket is signed, so the scanner can tell a real one from a forgery with no signal at all.
- Let in once. Scans sync between phones, and a second scan of the same ticket says when and at which gate it came in.
- Volunteers in seconds. Send a gate pass link. It scans for one event at one gate, needs no account, and stops after the event.

Questions organizers ask
What does Durbar cost?
Free events and free bookings cost nothing. On paid tickets and paid bookings, Durbar takes 3% of each order from your share, and Paystack takes its processing fee. There's no subscription, setup fee or charge per team member.
Do my buyers pay extra fees?
No. Buyers pay exactly the price on your page. Nothing is added at checkout.
How do I get paid?
Add your MoMo number or bank account in Payouts. Paystack sends your share there, usually the next working day. Durbar never holds it.
Do I need a smartphone app?
No. The console and the gate scanner run in the browser on any phone or computer. Volunteers scan with a link, without an account.
Is Durbar only for Accra?
No. Every region of Ghana is on Durbar from day one. Our team is in Tamale, which is where our first pilots are.
What isn't built yet?
Reserved seating, door sales, wallet passes, and selling tickets or taking votes by USSD and WhatsApp, among others. Each module's page lists what's coming soon, and nothing is sold before it works.
