What you can do on PlanKnit

PlanKnit gives you a booking page for any experience you host, takes bookings and payments on it, and helps you share it. It's free to start; on paid bookings PlanKnit keeps 5.5% plus GST.

Video: A booking page, the studio, payments, sharing and bookings, in one place.

PlanKnit is for people who host experiences with dates and limited seats: workshops, classes, heritage and food walks, supper clubs, retreats, treks, online sessions and group trips. Instead of taking bookings over WhatsApp, UPI screenshots and spreadsheets, you share one link and PlanKnit handles the rest.

How it works, start to finish

  1. Describe your experience — Type a line or drop the itinerary you already have (PDF, Word, Excel or photos). PlanKnit builds the page.
  2. Check and edit it — Read every word. Change anything by asking in the studio chat or by editing the fields.
  3. Publish — A title, a date, a price (or free) and, for paid pages, a cancellation policy are all it needs. You don't have to finish verification first.
  4. Share your link — Send the WhatsApp message or post the captions from Promote. Guests book from the page.
  5. Get verified to take payments — Add your PAN and bank details in the studio chat. Until they're approved, guests can request a spot; after that, they pay on the page.

What it costs

Starting and listing are free. On paid bookings PlanKnit charges 5.5% plus GST in total: 2.5% payment processing and 3% platform fee. There are no setup fees or monthly minimums, and nothing is charged on free events, cancelled bookings or unpaid ones. See [Pricing](/pricing) for the details.

Tip: Not sure where to start? [Create your first page from one line or a PDF](/knowledgebase/creating/create-from-one-line-or-pdf). It takes about a minute.

Common questions

Do I need to be a registered business?

No. Individuals and sole proprietors sign up with their own PAN. Companies, LLPs and partnerships use the business verification form, which is reviewed by hand.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. Guests book on the web page from any phone. They sign in with their phone number to see their ticket.

Can I use PlanKnit for free events?

Yes. Free events take registrations with a seat limit, and there's no fee.
