- What is Confereasy?
- Confereasy is a web platform for organising academic and scientific conferences. It covers the call for papers, peer review by scientific committees, invited sessions, the conference programme, registrations and payments, check-in on the day and certificates, all connected in one place.
- How much does it cost?
- There are no subscriptions or set-up fees. The standard plan costs $4.50 per registered attendee when attendees pay by card through Stripe, and $5.50 per registered attendee for other payment methods such as bank transfer or local gateways like Redsys. Prices exclude VAT, and payment gateways charge their own processing fees.
- What counts as a registered attendee?
- An attendee counts when they complete their registration and at least one payment has been recorded for it. Draft submissions, authors, reviewers and committee members do not count on their own.
- Can I try it before paying?
- Yes. Every new conference starts in draft mode, where everything works with some limits on attendees, papers and invited sessions. When you are ready, you activate the standard plan in a few minutes and keep all your configuration.
- Where does the registration money go?
- Straight to you. Card payments go to your own Stripe account, and bank transfers pay into your own bank account. We also support local payment gateways such as Redsys, also paying into your account: ask us and we will help you set it up. Confereasy is not an intermediary and never holds your attendees' money: we only charge our commission. You choose which payment methods each conference offers.
- Does it support blind peer review?
- Yes. Scientific committees have responsible members and reviewers, and you can hide author identities from reviewers and responsible members.
- Can session organisers manage their own invited sessions?
- Yes. Once an invited session is accepted, its organiser gets a private link to invite authors, reviews the submitted papers and sets their order, so the session reaches the programme ready to schedule.
- Do you build the conference website?
- No, Confereasy does not include a conference website. Registration, submissions, the programme and certificates live in the attendee portal, which you can link from your own site. If you need a website, we can help you and suggest options at no extra cost.
- Can I organise more than one conference?
- Yes. One account can manage several conferences, each with its own team, settings and attendee portal. Each conference is billed only for its own registered attendees.
- Do I need technical knowledge to set it up?
- No. A short wizard asks for the basics of your conference and prepares sensible defaults such as presentation types, sample categories, rooms, registration periods and certificate settings. You can change everything later.
