# Book a place at an event

Open the event on the Meets tab and tap Reserve my place for a free event, or Pay for a ticketed one. You have a place when your status says Going.

Open the event on the **Meets** tab, then tap **Reserve my place** if it is free, or the **Pay** button if it has a ticket price. You have a place when **YOUR STATUS** says **Going**.

## Book in the Android app

1. Open the **Meets** tab and stay on **Upcoming**.

2. Tap the event. Check the date and time under **WHEN**, and the price and places left under **YOUR TICKET**.
3. Tap the button near the bottom of the page:

   - **Reserve my place** for a free event. Your place is confirmed straight away.
   - **Pay** followed by the price for a ticketed event. See [Pay for an event ticket](https://help.murudo.co/meets/pay-for-an-event-ticket/).
   - **Join event waitlist** if the event is full. See [Join an event waitlist](https://help.murudo.co/meets/event-waitlist/).

4. When **YOUR STATUS** shows **Going**, the venue appears and **My QR ticket** is ready. See [Your QR ticket and the venue](https://help.murudo.co/meets/your-ticket-and-the-venue/).

The event is now also listed under **My events**. Each member books their own place: you cannot reserve a second place for a friend.

## If there is no booking button

A line on the event page explains why:

- **Verify your profile before booking an event.** Tap **Verify profile to book** and take the selfie check. See [Get the verified badge](https://help.murudo.co/profile/get-verified/).
- **Complete and activate your profile before booking an event.** Your profile is not finished or is not being shown. See [Why is my profile not being shown?](https://help.murudo.co/profile/profile-not-showing/)
- **Add your date of birth before booking an event.** See [Fix your birthday or age](https://help.murudo.co/profile/change-your-birthday/).
- **Registration for this event has not opened yet.** Booking opens at a time set for each event. Check again later.
- **Registration for this event is closed.** Booking closes at a time set for each event, and always once the event has started.

## On Murudo Web

1. Open the **Meets** tab and tap **View** on the event.
2. Tap **Reserve included spot** for a free event, or **Pay** followed by the price for a ticketed one.
3. A free place shows **Your spot is reserved.** and the event then shows **Going**.
