BillDesk for selling tickets

Sell tickets to audiences in India with BillDesk — one of the longest-running payment gateways in the country. Let buyers pay by UPI, net banking or card in rupees, settle to your own BillDesk merchant account, and collect payments straight from your Evenda event page.

Why BillDesk for events in India

BillDesk is a long-established Indian payment gateway that many banks and large billers already rely on. For event organizers in India, it brings deep coverage of local payment habits, so attendees can pay the way they normally do online rather than reaching for an international card.

Local ways to pay in India

  • UPI, using the apps buyers already have on their phone
  • Net banking across a wide range of Indian banks
  • RuPay, Visa and Mastercard debit and credit cards
  • Popular wallets where they are enabled on your account

Strong net banking coverage

Net banking is one of the core strengths of BillDesk, with connections to a broad set of Indian banks. Buyers who prefer to pay directly from their bank account can complete a ticket purchase without a card, which helps conversion well beyond the big metros.

Settlement in rupees

Payments are processed in INR and settle to your own BillDesk merchant account. The integration onboards merchants registered in India, so it is built for collecting in rupees from a domestic audience rather than for cross-border sales.

How a BillDesk payment works

At checkout the buyer is taken to the hosted BillDesk page to choose UPI, net banking or a card. After payment, BillDesk returns the result to Evenda and the response is verified with an HMAC-SHA256 checksum before the order is marked paid, so the status is protected against tampering.
