Features for Students
Explore how Societal's powerful features make event exploration easy and fun.
Interactive Event Map Feature
Societal’s interactive map transforms how users explore events by visualizing gatherings in real time across Pakistan. Zoom into cities like Lahore, Karachi, or Islamabad to see event pins categorized by type: music festivals, tech workshops, or university meetups. Click a pin to view event details—date, time, ticket availability, and organizer ratings
One-Time Scannable QR Codes
Every ticket generated through Societal is protected by a unique, encrypted QR code that ensures secure and seamless entry to events. These codes are dynamically linked to the buyer’s account and automatically invalidate after a single scan, eliminating the risk of duplication or fraud.
Vicinity Alert Feature
Societal’s vicinity alert system uses GPS technology to send personalized notifications to users as they approach an event venue. For example, when a user enters a predefined radius (e.g., within 1 km of Jinnah auditorium), they receive real-time alerts with directions, parking instructions, or last-minute updates like schedule changes. This feature not only improves attendee punctuality but also helps organizers optimize logistics, such as staffing entry gates during peak arrival times.
Secure Payment Ecosystem
Societal supports localized payment methods like Easypaisa, JazzCash, and bank transfers, alongside international credit/debit cards. Transactions are secured with PCI-DSS compliance and end-to-end encryption, ensuring sensitive data like credit card details remain protected.
Society Recruitment Hub
Societal’s recruitment portal helps students discover and join societies aligned with their passions. Browse NUST societies like the NUST Robotics Club, Literary Circle, or Dramatics club through curated profiles featuring videos, member testimonials, and upcoming initiatives.
Location-Based Recommendations
Societal’s Interactive Event Map leverages GPS technology to curate hyper-localized event suggestions tailored to a student’s physical location. For instance, a student in Islamabad receives real-time pins highlighting nearby tech meetups at NUST, art exhibitions in F-7, or networking sessions at local co-working spaces. This feature eliminates the hassle of manually searching for events, ensuring students discover opportunities within their immediate vicinity—whether on campus or in their city
