Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about using Moi
1 Getting Started
Moi (மொய்) is a traditional practice in South India where guests give monetary gifts at celebrations like weddings, birthdays, and housewarmings. Our app helps event hosts collect, track, and manage these contributions digitally - whether through UPI payments, cash, or physical gifts.
Simply sign in with Google or your email, and click "New Event" on your dashboard. Give your event a name (like "Ram & Sita's Wedding"), add recipients who will receive contributions, and share your unique link with guests.
Yes! Moi is completely free for personal use. We don't charge any fees for creating events, collecting contributions, or accessing your data.
2 For Event Hosts
Share your event link with guests (via WhatsApp, SMS, or QR code). They can enter their contribution details, choose a recipient, and either pay via UPI or mark their contribution as cash/gift. You'll see all entries in real-time on your dashboard.
Absolutely! Add as many recipients as you need. For example, for a wedding, you might have both the bride and groom as separate recipients. Guests can choose who they want to give to.
Your dashboard shows all contributions in real-time with live analytics. You can see totals by recipient, filter by status (confirmed/pending), and export everything to a spreadsheet for your records.
Yes! You can invite other people as admins to help manage your event. They'll be able to view and edit contributions, but only you (the owner) can delete the event.
3 For Contributors
You can record a contribution without an account, but signing in lets you track all your contributions across events, get email receipts, and have a permanent record of your giving history.
When you submit your contribution, you'll see the recipient's UPI QR code. Scan it with any UPI app (GPay, PhonePe, Paytm, etc.), complete the payment, and your contribution will be recorded automatically.
Select "Cash" or "Other Gift" as your payment type. Describe what you're giving, and the event host will mark it as received when you hand it over in person.
