Frequently Asked Question

Our benchmarking process always shows a saving. When you aggregate global event spend to a network of vetted suppliers offering exclusive rates, it’s hard not to. In some instances it’s 5% in others it’s over 30% - it completely depends on the brief. Those savings go immediately to the bottom line which can be seen as an immediate gain in ROI.
Teams running events are coming under more pressure to deliver more with less or more with the same. Your event budget from 5 years ago no longer stretches as far as it did and with research showing the PPH increasing YoY for event attendees it’s making it even harder. Now more than ever, teams want reassurance that their event budget is working hard for them
When your event suppliers are confirmed through Lumix, each supplier is paid individually through the platform under a single, centralised process. You make one approved payment to Lumix, and we handle payments directly to every supplier according to their agreed terms. This ensures suppliers are paid on time and in full, while you benefit from one purchase order, one contract, and one point of accountability. Once all supplier payments are processed and discounts applied, we issue your rebate — your share of the secured savings — on the same day, along with a detailed reconciliation showing: Each supplier’s original rate The net rate achieved through Lumix Lumix’s fee Your rebate amount This keeps everything fully transparent, auditable, and compliant — simplifying finance while ensuring every supplier relationship runs smoothly.
When you book through Lumix, you pay your full approved event budget upfront. Lumix secures discounted supplier rates through aggregated buying power, and the total savings are shared with you. We take a small percentage (30%) of the savings as our fee, and the remaining 70% is rebated back to you on the same day ensuring you save instantly, not months later.
Your rebate is based on the total discount Lumix secures. For example, if suppliers would normally charge £50,000 and Lumix negotiates a £42,000 net rate, the £8,000 saving is split, 70% (£5,600) returned to you, and 30% (£2,400) retained by Lumix as our fee.
You’ll receive a transparent financial summary showing the supplier’s full price, negotiated discount, Lumix’s fee, and your rebate amount. Everything is documented for audit and finance sign-off.
Over the past 15 years our team have been running an events agency, during which time they’ve received 10s of thousands of event briefs and quotes from suppliers. Internal events teams don’t have the luxury of this data or the insight over what competitors are paying. We’ve found that bringing this visibility and transparency truly arms event teams
A lot of factors determine a quote but the variation across similar line items can sometime be surprisingly stark. As event, marketing and procurement teams, it’s hard to establish and figure out whether you’re truly getting value for money and that’s where we can help.
