Q: How does 11th hour Events work?

You can create a deal listing by talking to one of our representatives or sales agents. The listing will include details of the specific service, price, date and offer as well as the discounted rate vs. the market rate. Customers then search by category, location, and price. Once they find a deal that they are interested in it can be reserved by paying a $99 deposit. Customers will be finalizing the booking with you after the reservation is confirmed and paid and they will bring to you the $99.00 voucher as part of the payment or deposit. The specific deal expires after the numbers of customers you require have made a paid reservation.Back to top

A cancelled event is an abandoned date and costs each Vendor thousands in lost income. Event Vendors re-book & recoup Abandoned Dates by offering Abandoned Dates as .Deals. and the Consumer can find & book local high-end vendors at heavily discounted rates (50%-70% off)

Unlike Daily Deal services we don.t do any negotiating with you. Instead you the Merchant can request your own deals based on your availability, cancellations or unbooked dates. This is VERY important as it is a true deal that fits your budget and needs. However we do oversee the process and make sure this is a legitimate deal, offer and business.Back to top
