Sponsorships from local banks arrive as emails that never make it into the budget sheet.
Use case
Small business showcases, run from one dashboard.
Run the event site, booths and community sponsorships, applications from local businesses, booth assignments, and event-day check-in for shop-local events, chamber showcases, and main street markets from one connected dashboard.
Who it's for
Shop-local events, chamber showcases, and main street markets.
Instead of sending attendees, vendors, sponsors, and staff through separate tools, every workflow stays attached to the same event record - so nothing falls through the cracks between your form tool, your ticket link, and your spreadsheet.
- Publish a branded event site
- Sell booths and community sponsorships
- Collect applications from local businesses
- Assign booths on the floor-plan map
- Run QR check-in at the door
The old way
What usually goes wrong.
Local businesses apply in one tool while payments happen in another.
Booth assignments get redrawn in a spreadsheet nobody else can see.
Event-day staff work from printed lists that were stale before doors opened.

FAQ
Common questions.
Can local businesses apply and pay online?
Yes. Local businesses fill out a structured application with your custom questions, and once approved they can pay booth or table fees through Stripe checkout - or you can record manual payments like cash and checks.
Does VendlyNest sell booths and community sponsorships too?
Yes - tickets, booths, sponsor packages, and add-ons all live in one commerce layer with capacity limits, sold-out protection, receipts, and QR passes.
Do we need a separate website builder?
No. Every event gets a multi-page microsite with themes, drag-and-drop content blocks, vendor and guest directories, and optional custom domains.
