Managing Booth Types

Booth types are the reusable templates behind your stalls: their size, the utilities they need, and what you charge for them. Set them up once, then apply them to any booth on your floor plan.

Prerequisites

Before you start, you’ll need an event with booths enabled.

Why booth types matter

At a Diwali bazaar or a college fest expo, you rarely design each stall from scratch. You have a handful of shapes: a 3x3 corner stall with power, a 6x3 food stall with water and a heavy power line, a 2x2 kiosk. Each of those is a booth type.

Viewing your booth types

How to get there: Dashboard > your event > Booths > Booth types

1. Open your event from the Dashboard.
2. Tap Booths, then open Booth types.
3. Scroll the grid to see every type you have defined.

The number beside the Booth types heading is your total count. Each card shows that type’s dimensions, utilities, and base price at a glance.

If a teammate has just added a type from their own device, pull down on the list to fetch the latest set.

Creating a booth type

How to get there: Dashboard > your event > Booths > Booth types

1. Tap the + button in the bottom-right corner.
2. Fill in the type’s dimensions, utilities, and base price.
3. Save to return to the list, where your new type appears in the grid.

If you have no types yet, the screen shows a short prompt explaining what a type is. The + button is still the way to add your first one.

Next Best Action

After defining your first few types, most organizers:

• For exhibitions and expos: Lay out your floor plan
• For food courts and bazaars: Group stalls into categories

Editing a booth type

How to get there: Dashboard > your event > Booths > Booth types

1. Find the type you want to change.
2. Tap its card to open it for editing.
3. Update the dimensions, utilities, or base price.
4. Save your changes.

Pricing changes and existing bookings

A type’s base price feeds the booths built from it. If you raise a price after vendors have already booked, reconcile those bookings yourself: earlier confirmations keep the amount they agreed to.

Finding a type quickly

How to get there: Dashboard > your event > Booths > Booth types

1. Tap Search types at the top of the screen.
2. Type part of the name, such as corner or food.
3. Tap the ✕ in the search box to clear it and see everything again.

If nothing matches, you’ll see a short “No matching types” message. Clear the search and try a broader term.

Name types so search works for you

Names like 3x3 Corner - Power beat Type A. When you are on the phone with a vendor at 11pm, searching corner should land on the right template in one go.

Troubleshooting

“No booth types yet.” - You haven’t defined any for this event. Tap the + button in the bottom-right corner to create your first one. Types do not carry over between events.

“No matching types.” - Your search text doesn’t match any name. Tap the ✕ in the search box, then try a shorter term.

The list keeps spinning - The types are still loading. If the spinner stays put, check your connection and pull down to refresh.

An error message appears instead of the grid - Velora could not fetch your types. Pull down to retry. If it repeats, leave the screen and reopen it from Booths.

A type you just created isn’t showing - Pull down on the grid to refresh. If it still isn’t there, confirm you saved the type rather than leaving the form.

A type is missing from a booth’s picker - Check that the type belongs to the same event and activity as the booth you’re editing.
