Building platforms
that power communities
App Guts builds SaaS platforms for creators, organizers, and businesses across Africa. EventsKona, our flagship, has been live across Nigeria since April and is growing every week, expanding across Africa.
Up and running in minutes
No training needed. If you can share a WhatsApp message, you can run your event on EventsKona.
Upload a flyer, or fill a form
Sign up free and upload your event flyer — we pull the details and fill the form for you. Prefer to type it out yourself? That works too. Either way, you're done in minutes.
Share your link and sell tickets
Every event gets a dedicated page on EventsKona. Share it on WhatsApp, Instagram, or anywhere your audience already is. Attendees pay securely via Paystack.
Scan QR codes, get paid
Every ticket is a unique QR code. Scan attendees at the gate using any smartphone — no special hardware. Your payout hits your Nigerian bank account after the event.

FlagshipOur flagship platform for event discovery, ticketing, and community management across Africa. Live across Nigeria since April and expanding — create events, sell tickets, and manage your audience in one place.

Upload a flyer or fill a form, sell tickets, track attendance, and manage guests — all from one platform.
Creators & Communities

Event Attendees

Brands & Promoters
Promote events, reach the right audiences, and measure how your campaigns perform.
Why We Exist
African communities deserve platforms built for their reality — not adapted from someone else's.
The Problem
Creators and organizers across Africa manage events with fragmented tools — WhatsApp broadcasts, manual payment tracking, and platforms built for other markets. The infrastructure they need simply doesn't exist for them.
The Opportunity
Africa has a generation of organizers, creators, and community builders ready to grow. They need modern, reliable platforms that understand local payments, local context, and local scale.
Our Answer
App Guts builds the infrastructure. EventsKona is our first platform — live across Nigeria since April and growing every week, expanding across Africa, platform by platform.
Our Story
App Guts is a technology company building SaaS platforms and digital tools for African communities, creators, and businesses.
Our flagship product, EventsKona, is an event discovery, ticketing, and management platform, live across Nigeria since April — built to work the way Nigerian organisers actually work, not adapted from markets that look nothing like ours.
EventsKona is the first platform in a broader vision to build infrastructure that powers how African communities connect, organise, and grow online.
