Sudan first artist booking platform

The Sudanese art worldin your hands

From the booking to the ticket to the payment — a documented transaction that connects Sudanese artists with their audience at home and abroad. No brokers, no phone calls.

Sudan art market runs entirely on personal brokers and phone calls — no published prices, no guarantee for either side, and no record.

naqam turns that into a documented, transparent transaction, and opens the diaspora audience to Sudanese artists.

The system

Two apps, one platform

Each side gets its own app, both on one platform and one record.

NaqamFor the audience

Book an artist for your own occasion — a wedding, a graduation, a birthday — and pay the deposit inside the platform. Or buy concert tickets and walk in with a code on your phone. Browsing needs no account.

  • Book an artist for a private occasion
  • Receive and accept a price in the app
  • Pay the deposit and upload the receipt
  • Concert tickets with an entry code
  • Follow every booking and its history
  • Support, inside the app

Naqam ArtFor artists and organizers

An artist runs their page, their incoming requests and their money from one place. An organizer creates a concert, sets the ticket tiers and their prices, and scans entry codes at the door with their phone.

  • Your page, posts and followers
  • Price a request, with your net shown as you type
  • A calendar that blocks double bookings
  • Create concerts and tiers at your prices
  • Wallet, statement and payout requests
  • Scan tickets at the door
How the transaction works

Four steps, not a single phone call

The deposit is paid inside the platform and held there as a guarantee for both sides. It is released to the artist only after the event is done.

01

Pick your artist

Browse artists and organizers with no account, open the page you want, then send your request with the date, the place and the head count.

02

Their price arrives

The artist sends their price and terms, with a stated validity window. You accept, or you let it expire — and there is no phone call in the middle.

03

Pay the deposit

A Bankak transfer with a reference of your own, then you upload the receipt. The transfer is matched against the bank statement before the booking is confirmed.

04

The event happens, the artist is paid

The deposit stays held by the platform until the event happens, then goes to the artist after a safety window for raising a dispute.

The guarantee

Why inside the platform, not outside it

A held deposit

The money never reaches the artist before the event happens, and the customer never loses it if it does not. The platform is a party to the transaction, not a noticeboard.

Matched before it counts

A photo of a receipt does not confirm a booking. Finance matches every transfer against the real Bankak statement first — a screenshot is a claim, not a payment.

Notifications that actually arrive

WhatsApp is the primary channel for anything financial or time-critical, alongside in-app notifications — because connectivity in Sudan cannot be relied on alone.

A documented record

Every step is recorded with who did it and when: the request, a written offer with its deadline, a matched receipt, and ledger entries that are never edited — a mistake is corrected with a reversing entry. Then a rating.

Who it is for

Three sides, one platform

For the artist

A career managed from one place, rights that are guaranteed, and an open door to the diaspora — the highest-value demand there is.

For the audience

Book with confidence, pay safely, buy your ticket in a minute, and follow the artists you love.

For the organizer

Create your concert, set the tiers and prices yourself, watch the sales as they happen, and scan the entry codes at the door.

In your hands

Two separate apps on the Apple and Google stores, one for each side.
