PlugServices

PlugServices is an event promotion and ticketing platform managed by Plug Trading Services Inc., serving African diaspora communities across Canada and the United States. It brings together events such as parties, concerts, comedy shows, festivals, conferences, brunches, gospel performances, and national-day galas, helping guests discover activities by city, date, type, and price. Attendees can purchase tickets online and receive secure QR codes by email for scanning at the door. The platform also offers event listings, organizer-shared photo galleries, guest support, and a weekly email highlighting upcoming events. Its website is available in English and French.

For organizers, PlugServices provides event listing and ticket sales, promotion, email marketing, and operational support for services such as sound and staging, along with payout settlement. Organizers can list events without a platform fee; the card processor’s fee is passed through, and payouts are made within five business days after an event. By combining event discovery, ticketing, promotion, and organizer tools, PlugServices offers a shared hub for African cultural events in cities across Canada and the USA.
