What Ulsav Is
The platform, the journey of an event, and the seven areas this section covers
Ulsav is a platform for running events and selling tickets. An organizer creates an Event, sets up the Passes people can buy, takes payment, and lets people in at the door. Ulsav keeps the money records and the attendance records behind all of it.
You do not need to know how it is built to use it. You do need to know how the pieces fit together, because almost every question an organizer asks — "why can't I publish?", "where did that refund go?", "who is allowed to do this?" — is answered by one of these seven areas.
One journey, seven areas
A person browsing the site goes through the platform in a straight line:

O[Organization] --> E[Event]
E --> P[Pass]
P --> R[Registration]
R --> C[Check-in]
E --> O2[Order]
O2 --> REach step is a different area of the product, and each has its own section here:
Organizations
Who owns the events, and who on your team can do what
Events
Drafts, publishing, sessions, and who can see the event
Passes
What you sell: price, discounts, quantity, and when sales open
Orders
What a buyer actually pays, and what happens to that money
Registrations
Who is attending, and what they had to provide to get in
Check-in
Scanning people in at the door, and what a duplicate scan means
Insights
The numbers: sales, attendance, where buyers came from
The three things that trip people up
- An Order is not a Registration. An Order is money. A Registration is a claim on a Pass. One buyer can pay for four people, and all four are separate Participants.
- Publishing is one-way. A published Event never goes back to draft. You archive it, or you cancel it.
- What happened is frozen. Once an Order is confirmed, the prices, taxes, and fees on it stop changing — even if you change your settings later.
How to read this section
Start with Organizations if you are setting up for the first time. If you are trying to publish your first Event, read Events and Passes together — publishing checks both.
Every page ends with links to the pages that go deeper, and to the two other places that answer questions:
