In search for the best solution for our own events

The Paydro team has years of experience in web development and organizing events. In 2006 we started organizing The Next Web Conference, which grew to a leading European Internet conference with 900 web professionals from over 25 countries who spend 3 days in Amsterdam. Time has always been our main constraint so we're always looking for ways to save time and improve our overall service and event.

We've tried several solutions for our registration process, unfortunately nothing came close to our requirements. At the beginning of 2008 we decided to bundle our expertise in web development with our organizational skills to build a new online event registration service. We wanted to develop a service that would eliminate as much time consuming operations as possible, but without losing the personal touch and the branding of the event. Furthermore, the adminstration tools of most existing sevrvices do not meet the requirements of many organizers. We knew we were not the only ones looking for a new and fresh registration and payment service for events. So there it was, Paydro was born and open for each and every innovative event organizer.

The idea is easy: an online event registration and payment service, that can be implemented in minutes without any knowledge of programming languages. That offers a fully integrated and flexible payment solution with a fully skinnable look and feel. A service that eliminates as many time consuming administrative and communicative operations as possible. All our wishes come together in Paydro - your online event ticket butler.

We've put a lot of effort and time into analyzing the registration process and actions implied for an organizer. By automating these processes Paydro saves you days of time and is a great service to be working with. It saved us around 13 days on manual work with regards to The Next Web Conference. Partly due to this we were able to put more effort in the organization and marketing of the conference and made it a better conference than it already was.

Technology and events

Every day we discover and keep track of new developments in internet technology. Apart from that we love real life events. We visit many conferences and see many problems still to be solved, this keeps us sharp and eager. As there is always room for improvement, we will keep on improving and developing Paydro.
