ExpoFP provides interactive floor plans for event attendees, exhibitors and organizers. Attendees can search by company, booth or category and find directions across floors and buildings. Exhibitors can check booth availability, sizes and prices, then reserve space through the map. Payment processing supports PayPal, Stripe, Square, Authorize.net and PayPal Payflow, with no extra transaction fees stated. Organizers can embed plans by link, button, iframe or script, use Android and iOS SDK integrations, and exchange exhibitor information through partner integrations, a public API, Excel templates or Salesforce. Kiosk software for Windows, Android, macOS and Linux can display plans offline. Listed uses include expos, trade shows, fairs, conferences, weddings, food truck festivals and offices. ExpoFP has a free plan and a 7-day trial; paid plans start at $149 a month. The Light plan costs 990.00 USD one-time and excludes booth reservation and sponsorship. Floor-plan data is hosted on AWS in the United States, and ExpoFP says it cannot currently host it elsewhere.
