Short and sweet - FAQs

Can I already use Partybroker?

The software is currently in an open, free beta phase. This means that you can use Partybroker both privately and commercially free of charge. Simply register and off you go!

What kind of computer do I need for Partybroker?

An average computer with a reasonably up-to-date operating system (Windows, Mac or Linux) or an up-to-date smartphone or tablet is perfectly adequate. All you need is an up-to-date browser (preferably Google Chrome) and an internet connection that is not too slow. Unfortunately, older browsers that do not support so-called "websockets" cannot display Partybroker without problems.

Is Partybroker really free to use?

Yes, the use of the beverage exchange software, both in a private and commercial context, is free of charge in the basic version. However, the software or its use or administration may not be offered as such for commercial purposes. In addition, we offer a Partybroker Premium version for professional use for a fee.

How many clients and screens can I use at the same time?

In principle, the number of clients you can use is unlimited and only limited by our server resources. This means that you can use as many bar screens and as many client screens as you like.

How many drinks can I create?

You can create as many drinks as you like for each party. However, a maximum number of 12 drinks has proven to be a good idea, as the overview for both bar staff and guests suffers with more drinks.

Can I react to changes in demand during the party?

Of course, you can also adjust the price increase and decrease for each drink during the party. This allows you to react to unexpected fluctuations in demand to avoid excessive unwanted price fluctuations.

When do stock market crashes happen?

The higher the prices of the drinks, the higher the risk of a stock market crash. If your beverage prices are exactly between the minimum and maximum price, the risk is = 0. If all your prices are at the maximum, the risk is 50%. The stock market crash risk indicates the probability of a stock market crash occurring at the next price update.

Can I influence the stock market crash risk?

Yes, you can define a factor in the settings of your party. You can use this value to increase or reduce the probability of stock market crashes or switch off stock market crashes completely. You can also influence the duration of stock market crashes there.

Can I execute stock market crashes manually?

Yes, you can manually trigger a stock market crash on any bar screen.

Where is my data stored?

As the core parts of the program run on our web server, your master data and drinks are also stored there. Of course, this data cannot be viewed by third parties and will not be passed on to them. Of course, you must agree to the data storage on our server (see terms and conditions).

The software is not running properly, what can I do?

Are you using a decent browser? Make sure you install the latest Google Chrome to rule out this possibility. Do you have a secure, fast internet connection? If that doesn't help, just get in touch with us.

I use Partybroker Premium. How can I top up my Premium account?

You can top up your Partybroker Premium account via Paypal or by credit card. The top-up takes effect immediately, i.e. you can also top up your account during the party.
