How to Get Started

1️⃣ Create your Partner Account
Go to partners.venuestart.com → click Register → fill out your business details.
After verification, you’ll receive your login credentials.


2️⃣ Register Your Main Venue

Enter your venue name, address, area, nearby landmark, and contact details.


3️⃣ Add Sub-Venues Most venues are made up of several event spaces — from grand ballrooms to meeting rooms or restaurants. That’s why Venuestart lets you register each of them separately under one main property. This makes it easier for clients to see all your available spaces, compare capacities, and request quotes accurately.


Here’s how to do it step by step: 1. Write a short description (1–2 sentences) Give a quick yet appealing snapshot of the space. Focus on purpose and atmosphere. Example: “The Magnolia Ballroom offers floor-to-ceiling windows and accommodates up to 200 guests for weddings or corporate banquets.” Example: “A cozy function room perfect for board meetings or intimate private dinners.” 💡 Tip: The short description appears in the search list and thumbnail view — make it count. 2. Define capacity and operating hours Specify both minimum and maximum capacity so clients can instantly see if the space fits their event size. If the room can host multiple layouts, include layout-based capacities (e.g., Classroom 80 / Banquet 120). Also set your open days and business hours. For instance, a restaurant venue might be open daily 10:00 AM–10:00 PM, while a ballroom might be available by session or reservation. 3. Select amenities and event types Venuestart allows you to multi-select from a pre-defined list — such as AV System, Projector, Stage, Parking, or Outdoor Area. You can also request new options via the [Request New +] button if something unique isn’t listed yet. Then, choose the types of events your space best fits: Weddings, Corporate Seminars, Product Launches, Social Gatherings, Exhibitions, and more. Selecting these accurately helps our algorithm recommend your venue to the right clients. 4. Set pricing and packages This is where your venue truly stands out. You can create flexible pricing for: Hourly / Half-day / Full-day rental rates Dining or Beverage packages (per person or per group) Add-ons such as LED Wall, Projector, Photo Booth, or Live Band Special Packages like “Wedding”, “Corporate Seminar”, “Birthday Party”, etc. 💡 Tip: You can also set waiver conditions — for example, “Rental fee waived if food & beverage spend reaches ₱50,000.” This encourages clients to upgrade their bookings and increases overall revenue.

4️⃣ Upload Photos

High-quality, landscape-oriented photos make all the difference.
Your first uploaded image becomes your main thumbnail.


5️⃣ Get Approved & Go Live

After review, your venue listing goes live and starts receiving client inquiries.
