MapD is indeed a welcome and needed change for the way we sell booths and handle our awesome exhibitors. With being in our 20th year, we needed a system that would take the guesswork out of exhibitor payments, accounting, floor plan assignments and more! MapD has helped us sell more booths in a shorter time frame and we will most definitely continue to use them!

MapD is one of the most user friendly systems I have found for floor plan software. The customer service received after signing up goes unmatched by any other systems I have used. MapD has truly made my job easier as an Exhibit Manager and helps to promote and sell booth space with the interactive floor plan I can deliver to my vendors.

Map D is an amazing platform and easy to use! We worked with Map D for our virtual annual conference last year and it worked like a charm. When we held our annual conference in-person for the first time in two years, our first choice for our conference app was Map D!

I just came back from show site. This week I had my largest show ever. I had 247 exhibitors and I had 247 happy exhibitors. And a lot of that is a result of they were able to get their badges, update their profile, reach out to me anytime they want to.

Exporting exhibitors is really helpful for me. Fern needs a list of all our exhibitors with their booth number and what size it's going to be. Just exporting that list and getting it to whoever I'm working with at Fern is so incredibly helpful.

I'm probably your only customer who uses it to sell campsites, but it works really well. I just give them a drawing and they put it all together for me. I don't have to do it - it saves me many hours.

Your questions answered

These are some of the most common questions nonprofit teams ask about payments, embeds, ticketing, and launch timelines with Map D.

Request Demo

Can we price sponsor tables and vendor booths differently?

Yes. Booths, tables and sponsorship placements can each carry their own price and tier, so a silent-auction table and a vendor booth do not have to be sold at the same rate. Pricing is set on the live map and applies at checkout.

Can volunteers run this without a dedicated ops person?

That is the design goal. Vendors and sponsors select and pay for their own space from the map, and manage their own profiles, documents and add-ons, so a rotating committee is not re-keying forms.

What reporting can we give funders and our board?

Revenue, exhibitor and sponsor activity, and attendee engagement export to CSV or a scheduled email, so the numbers in a grant report or board packet come from the same record that ran the event.

Can we take donations alongside booth and table sales?

Sponsorship placements, tables and booths are all sold through the same checkout, and you can process payments through your own gateway. Donation handling stays in your existing fundraising tool rather than being duplicated here.
