What is the Progressive Event App (PEA©)?

It’s everything a traditional event app tries to be — without the mess. One link opens your event app in any browser, instantly. No downloads. No app store approvals. No attendee friction. Just real-time access to your agenda, speakers, updates, networking, and more.

Do attendees have to download anything?

Never. That’s the point. PEA© is a browser-based app that works on any device — phone, tablet, or laptop — with no installation, updates, or logins required.

Everything. The PEA© includes your event schedule, speaker profiles, live announcements, polls, networking tools, sponsor banners, and more — all branded to your event and editable on the fly.

How fast is it to launch?

Ridiculously fast. We set up your first PEA© for you — usually same-day. From there, you can duplicate or launch new events in minutes. It's also included with your ticket and marketing platform and created automatically.

Is it easy for attendees to use?

Yes — that’s the magic. No learning curve. No barriers. Just click and go. That’s why we see 99%+ adoption rates, even for last-minute attendees.

Can I customise the design?

Absolutely. All PEAs include basic branding — colours, logo, agenda, sponsor spots. Want something totally custom? We offer full design control for £12,000/year.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Want your app at something like yourevent.com? That’s an optional upgrade: £4,000 flat for full domain setup, SSL, and support.

Any contracts or hidden fees?

None. We only make money when you run real events. No subscriptions. No feature gating. No pressure to upgrade.

Can it connect to my ticketing system?

Yes — in the customised solutions we integrate with Eventbrite and support manual guest uploads. Just send us your setup, and we’ll link it all seamlessly.

How much does the app cost?

It’s included in our core pricing: Use Presso ticketing? Just 1% per ticket sold. Using external ticketing? Just £1 per attendee per event day. Either way — no extra fees just for using the app.

What support is included?

We set up your first event with you. From there, you’ve got full access to support, resources, and optional onboarding calls. We’re lean, fast, and always on your side.

How does it help the planet?

Every event app powers real climate action — automatically. We give 10% of our revenue to reforestation, carbon removal, and clean energy projects. No opt-ins, no paperwork. Just built-in good.

The Event App That Isn’t Just an App

Let’s cut the crap — no one’s downloading a new app for a one-day business event. Not your execs. Not your sponsors. Not your attendees. That’s why we built the Progressive Event App (PEA): a fast, no-download, no-hassle experience that lives in the browser and works instantly on every device. One link. Zero friction. Full control. From schedules and speakers to networking and real-time updates — it’s everything an event app should be, minus the bloated nonsense. And best of all? It’s already included.

💀 Why Most Event Apps Flop

Bloated, Broken, and Barely Used

You know the drill. You spend weeks crafting the perfect experience — curating speakers, designing branding, syncing schedules — only to watch your event app fall flat. It’s clunky. It's ignored. It's expensive. Attendees don’t download it. Sponsors don’t see ROI. Your team becomes tech support. And the promise of “seamless engagement” turns into a slow, painful letdown. The worst part? You paid thousands for the privilege. It’s not just frustrating — it’s broken by design.

📉 Nobody Downloads It

Most Apps Die on the Homescreen

With millions of apps out there, yours doesn’t stand a chance. Most attendees won’t install anything for a one-day event.

🧩 Clunky from the First Tap

Setup Feels Like a Chore

Logins, updates, forgotten passwords — all before they see a single agenda item. Engagement dies before it begins.

🧊 Cold, Awkward, Forgettable

Engagement Dies on Impact

Bad UX kills connection. Attendees check out, sponsors get ignored, and your event feels like a missed opportunity.

💸 You Paid to Embarrass Yourself

Thousands Spent, Zero ROI

You blew the budget on an app nobody used — and ended up back at the printer, explaining glitches to VIPs.

So, what's the alternative?

Presso's Progressive Event App (PEA©) eliminates downloads, streamlines setup, and enhances engagement — all without the bloated costs. It's time to leave the outdated, ineffective event apps behind and embrace a solution designed for today's event organisers and attendees.

✨ Why PEA Isn’t Just Another App

Everything You Need. Nothing You Don’t.

Most apps are bloated, outdated, and built for someone else’s problems. The PEA is different — because it was built from the ground up for modern, in-person business events. No downloads. No passwords. Just one sleek, browser-based experience that launches instantly and actually gets used. Attendees get the full agenda, speaker profiles, live updates, networking tools, sponsor visibility, and check-in — all in one link. You get control, adoption, and zero technical faff. It’s what every event app should have been — and somehow, no one else built.

📲 99% Attendee Adoption

No Downloads = No Drop-Off

One link. Any device. Instant access. When it just works, people actually use it — which means higher engagement, more value, and no tech headaches.

⚡️ Live in Minutes

From Zero to Event-Ready — Fast

You send us your agenda and assets — we send you a fully working app the same day. No devs. No dashboards. No delays.

💼 Built-In for Business

Everything You Need, Nothing You Don’t

Schedules, speakers, networking, live polls, check-in, sponsor banners — it’s all in the box. And it just works, out of the gate.

💚 Greener by Design

No Paper. No Waste. No Guilt.

The PEA© replaces printed programmes, updates, and signage — cutting paper waste while boosting your event’s sustainability story.

Ready to Ditch the Downloads?

Stop paying for apps nobody opens. The Progressive Event App is faster to launch, easier to use, and already included in your plan. No tiers. No lock-in. Just one powerful tool that makes your event better — instantly.
