Partner Integration Pack
What this pack is
This is a business overview for companies that want to work with Partyverse as an integration partner — that is, to make Partyverse's events and tickets available to your own customers and drive purchases into the platform.
By the end of this pack you'll understand:
- who is on Partyverse and what they offer,
- how events and tickets are listed and discovered,
- how your customers pay and how charges work,
- what a partner can do today, and
- how to get access.
It is deliberately not technical documentation. There are no endpoint addresses, request details or code here — your engineering team will get those when you're ready to build. To start a conversation now, email philo@livelabs.africa.
Partyverse at a glance
Partyverse is a platform for planning, hosting and attending events. Four kinds of people make it work:
- Hosts create events — birthdays, weddings, concerts, corporate events and more — and decide how guests take part.
- Planners and professionals organise and deliver events, and can be discovered by hosts looking for help.
- Vendors and merchants offer the products and services an event needs — catering, décor, drinks, gifts — which hosts can book or buy.
- Guests discover events, RSVP, buy tickets and take part.
As an integration partner, you sit alongside guests: you bring people to events. Your customers can browse the events Partyverse features and buy tickets without leaving your product.
How events and tickets get listed
An event listing is the public page for a real event, created by its host. The host chooses an event type — birthday, wedding, concert, corporate and so on — and sets the date, location, capacity and other details. An event can be kept private, or made public. Making an event public is what puts it into Partyverse's discovery surfaces, where it can be found by category, shown as a featured event, or surface in trending rankings.
Tickets are defined as part of that listing. The host (or their planner) sets the ticket types, their prices, and how many are available, and from that point the event can be sold. Availability is tracked against the quantities the host set, so it stays accurate as tickets are bought.
The practical shape for a partner is this: the events Partyverse surfaces — featured, promoted and trending — and their tickets become the catalogue you can present to your audience. You don't create events or tickets — hosts do. You surface them and sell them.
Where you fit
Working with the Partyverse partner API, you can:
- Browse featured events — list the events Partyverse features, including by category.
- See what's trending — list the events currently trending on the platform.
- Look up an event — get the full details of a specific event.
- See an event's tickets — the ticket types, prices and remaining availability.
- Create a purchase — buy tickets on behalf of a customer, in one of two ways:
- a bank-transfer flow, where Partyverse gives the buyer a dedicated account to pay into, and the purchase is confirmed and completed once the payment lands; or
- a direct flow, where you take payment through your own checkout, confirm it to us, and the tickets are issued straight away.
- Track purchases — check the status of any purchase at any time.
- Get notified — receive a notification when a purchase completes, so your systems stay in sync with ours.
How money works
Your customer pays the ticket price. Pricing and any platform fees are agreed with you at onboarding and built into the price the customer sees — there are no separate invoices for you to reconcile.
There are two ways a purchase can be settled:
- Bank transfer (the standard flow). We generate a one-off account for that specific purchase. The customer transfers the amount, and the moment our payment provider confirms the money has arrived, the purchase is confirmed and completed. These accounts are short-lived, so a purchase that isn't paid in time simply lapses.
- Direct flow. You've already handled payment on your side; you confirm it to us and the tickets are issued immediately.
Whichever route is used, a purchase is only final once payment is confirmed through the agreed process. If a purchase can't be paid, the payment window closes and the purchase is not completed.
What you can do today
- Event and ticket access — browse the events Partyverse features, look up any public event's details, and read its tickets and availability.
- Purchases two ways — the platform-handled bank-transfer flow, or the direct flow where you control payment.
- Scoped access — access is granted in levels (read-only, standard and full), so you're only given what your use case needs.
- A safe place to build — a sandbox environment with sample events and tickets lets you build and test end to end without touching real events or real money.
- Signed notifications — purchase notifications are cryptographically signed, so you can trust that they genuinely came from us.
Today, the partner surface covers events, tickets and purchases. Offering goods or services on Partyverse — for example as a vendor or merchant — is a separate, first-party process rather than part of the partner API.
Getting started
- Talk to us — email philo@livelabs.africa and tell us what you'd like to build.
- Get sandbox access — we'll set you up with test access so you can build against sample events and tickets.
- Agree your access level — we'll grant the level of access your use case needs.
- Go live — we issue your live access and you begin driving real purchases.
- Stay in sync — subscribe to signed purchase notifications and keep your own records up to date.
Once you're live, your access can be rotated or revoked at any time.
