Some background on us: There are over 50K+ venues that do bottle service, guest list, and ticketing worldwide. The nightlife industry is $25B+ domestically and over $75B+ globally. The industry has historically seen very few technological advances, lacks transparency, has an inefficient booking process, lack of user data/analytics, notoriously difficult to access and struggles with excess inventory. We're here to fix that. In a couple taps users can browse the best events/venues, prepay & reserve bottle service, bar spends, guest list and tickets. On the venue side, we provide casino level intelligence to our partners through our beautifully designed and easy to use venue and guest management platform. We make money by taking a percentage of all transactions we send to our venues (15-25%) and charge a monthly fee to our venue to use our venue management software ($49-$249/mo). iOS: http://apple.co/1dSwJ5J Android: http://bit.ly/1IoAlro Web: http://bit.ly/1P69jdP
