Why event hosts choose Merriments

Not a replacement for Kahoot — a better fit for social events.

Built for live events, not classrooms

Kahoot was designed for teachers and students. Merriments is built from the ground up for live audience engagement — the UI, the games, and the energy are all tuned for maximum fun at any event.

No app needed — ever

Kahoot recommends its app for the best experience. With Merriments, players join entirely in their mobile browser. No one gets left out because they don't want to download another app.

Pay per event, not per month

Kahoot charges a monthly subscription even if you host one event a year. Merriments charges ₹499 per event — pay only when you use it.

Spin the wheel & more interactive games

Kahoot is primarily a quiz platform. Merriments includes a live spin the wheel, with more event-native games coming. Built for engagement, not lesson plans.
