Acteva, a provider of online event registration, ticketing and payment management services, announced Tuesday that it has entered into a partnership with Rondavu, the developers of the social networking tool Party Buzz.

The partnership is designed to help event organizers gain exposure to the Facebook community by publishing news of their Acteva transaction, and promoting their attendance at an event via their Facebook News Feed. Also, by publishing this activity through the Party Buzz connection, this information is made visible to all their friends who are also Party Buzz members.

In the past decade Acteva has helped event planners manage some 215,000 events, and process over 3.4 million registrations. Now Acteva eventgoers have the option to let their online friends know they have purchased tickets, donated to an organization's charitable cause, purchased a membership, and registered to attend an industry conference.

San Francisco-based Acteva's other customers include Bausch & Lomb, Pfizer, SAP, Girl Scouts of America, Whole Foods, Craigslist Foundation, and Lending Tree.--Gavin O'Malley
