Celevend

Celevend is a Nigeria-focused event marketplace for customers planning weddings, parties, and corporate occasions, and for event-service vendors that want to get discovered and manage bookings.

Key capabilities include:

• Vendor discovery and comparison by category and location, with options to browse vendors near a customer and compare prices, ratings, and reviews across services such as catering, photography, DJs, makeup, cakes, decoration, and event planning.
• Vendor profiles and portfolios that show service details and past work, helping customers evaluate options before sending a request.
• In-app chat and booking workflow, including requesting quotes, confirming bookings, and tracking booking status in one place.
• Payments in Nigerian Naira via card, bank transfer, or USSD, with the site describing payments as secure and linking bookings to a cancellation and refund policy.

Available on Web, Android, and iOS.

Built for event customers across Nigeria and for independent vendors and event businesses that need a marketplace to list services, communicate with customers, and receive payouts. Vendor pricing is freemium with a Free plan (₦0, 8% commission), Basic (₦5,900/month, 5% commission), and Pro (₦19,900/month, 3% commission). The platform also offers designed digital invitations with RSVP tracking (advertised from ₦29,900).

It is notable in the Nigerian market for supporting nationwide vendor discovery and end-to-end booking with local payment methods (including USSD), plus invitation and planning tools designed around common event workflows in Nigeria.
