What is WKND for Vendors?

WKND helps vendors get discovered by eventgoers before the weekend starts. Create a Smart Vendor Page, tag your products, and link your upcoming events so new shoppers can find and follow you.

What is a Smart Vendor Page?

It’s your digital booth inside WKND — complete with photos, descriptions, contact links, and a QR code you can display at events. It helps shoppers remember you, follow you, and buy from you later.

How do I list my events?

After creating your vendor profile, simply search and favorite events for your upcoming markets, pop-ups, or festivals. WKND connects your booth to the event listing automatically so eventgoers can find you via your SVP - Smart Vendor Page. 

How does QR QuickPay help vendors?

QR QuickPay allows instant payments or preorders through your WKND page — no separate POS or link-in-bio needed. It’s fast, secure, and built for vendors on the go.

How do vendor tags work?

When setting up your profile, choose up to three tags that describe your business (e.g., “handmade jewelry,” “plant-based food,” “art prints”). These tags help shoppers find you in searches and event listings.

What does “verified vendor” mean?

Verified Vendors are trusted makers and businesses confirmed by WKND. Verification builds shopper confidence and helps your booth rank higher in search results.

How do I connect with eventgoers?

WKND lets you collect followers, messages, and favorites — so you can engage directly with customers who love your products and want to see where you’ll be next.

Is there a cost to join WKND?

Signing up is free. Optional premium features like boosted listings or advanced analytics will be available soon to help vendors grow their audience faster.

How does event discovery work?

Just open WKND, swipe through nearby events, and tap ❤️ to favorite what you love. The more you swipe, the smarter the app gets — showing you events that match your vibe, location, and past favorites.

Can I see who’s vending at an event?

Yes! Each event includes a list of verified vendors. Tap on any vendor to open their Smart Vendor Page — where you can browse photos, menus, links, and upcoming appearances.

What are Smart Vendor Pages?

Smart Vendor Pages are mini storefronts inside WKND. They let you see what a vendor sells, follow them, and save their next pop-up so you don’t miss them at your favorite market or festival.

What is WKND PlanIt?

PlanIt helps you plan your weekend with friends. Add events to your list and invite friends to join. PlanPal lets everyone vote, chat, and coordinate plans — so group planning feels easy and fun.

Do I need an account to use WKND?
