Sell tickets. Move products.
Grow faster.

Absolutely not.

We encourage all types of businesses to join our ecosystem. You can sell IT services, photography packages, gym memberships, handmade jewelry, or artisanal sourdough bread. As long as your product is permissible (Halal) and doesn’t violate our community guidelines (e.g. no alcohol, gambling, or adult content), you are welcome here. We believe in empowering the entire community, not just niche markets.

Yes! Free events are always 100% free to list and manage. For paid ticketed events, our Founding Members pay $0 platform fees until 31 December 2026. This means you keep more of your hard-earned revenue. The only cost you will ever incur is the mandatory Stripe card processing fee (1.70% + A$0.30 for domestic cards), which goes directly to the payment processor, not us.

We utilize a secure Stripe Connect integration to handle all financial transactions. Funds are automatically transferred directly to your nominated Australian bank account. For marketplace vendors, payouts are processed on a weekly rolling basis. For event organisers, to ensure buyer protection and reduce chargeback risks, payouts are processed 3 days after your event successfully concludes.

Of course! Tijara is built on the principles of hospitality and connection. While our organisers are predominantly from the Muslim community, events are generally open to the wider Australian public unless specifically stated otherwise (e.g., “Sisters Only” swimming sessions). We love seeing cross-cultural connections happen through our platform and encourage everyone to participate.

To maintain a safe and trusted marketplace, we require verification for all sellers and organisers. You will need to provide a valid Australian Business Number (ABN) if you are trading as a business, or a valid Australian government ID (Driver’s License or Passport) for individuals. Verification is handled securely and usually takes less than 24 hours. Once approved, your profile will display the “Verified Partner” badge, boosting customer confidence.

Yes! Tijara is fully equipped to handle digital commerce. You can sell e-books, printable art, Lightroom presets, software licenses, or online courses. When a customer purchases a digital item, they receive a secure, expiring download link instantly via email. You can even set download limits to protect your intellectual property.

We understand that life happens and sometimes cancellations are unavoidable. You can cancel an event directly from your organiser dashboard with just a few clicks. Our system will automatically trigger full refunds to all current ticket holders and send them a customized cancellation email explaining the situation. This saves you hours of manual administrative work during a stressful time.

The 10% pledge is at the heart of our business model. We calculate 10% of Tijara’s total revenue (the fees we earn, not your sales) and donate it to registered Australian Muslim charities every month. We publish these donation receipts publicly on our blog to ensure total transparency. By using our platform, you are indirectly supporting humanitarian causes without any extra cost to you or your customers.

Yes, we provide a dedicated “Tijara Organiser” app available on both iOS and Android. This app is specifically designed for event day management. Your staff or volunteers can use it to scan QR code tickets at the door using their phone cameras, check attendees in manually, and view real-time attendance stats. It works seamlessly even if the internet connection is spotty.

Your brand identity matters to us. Vendors get a dedicated storefront URL (tijara.au/store/yourname) which you can customize extensively. You can upload your own banner image, set a profile logo, add a biography, and curate your featured products. We also provide tools to link your social media profiles, helping you build a cohesive brand presence across the web.
