Guest Details During Registration
After the primary attendee signs in or signs up, a guest entry pop-up will appear.
In this pop-up:

  • Attendees can:
  • Add guest information
  • Remove a guest using the “X” icon
  • Add additional guests (within limit)
  • Select “I’m not bringing any guests”
Guest information includes:
  • First name
  • Last name
Notes:
  • Guest email addresses are not collected
  • Guests do not create accounts
  • Guests cannot log in
  • Guests do not receive event emails

Registration Flow
After entering guest details, the attendee clicks Next.
  • If a registration form is enabled → the form appears
  • If no form is enabled → confirmation appears immediately

Guest Registration with Capacity and Waitlist
Guest Registration works with attendee capacity and waitlist settings.
Important Notes:
  • All guests count toward total event capacity
  • If capacity is reached and waitlist is enabled:
  • Primary attendee and all guests are added to the waitlist together
  • When spots open:
  • Admins must manually promote waitlisted attendees
  • This ensures enough space for both the attendee and their guests

Manage Registrants and Guests
From Registration → Registration List tab:
  • View and manage all registrants
  • Filter attendees by status
  • See registration progress and completion
Additional actions:
  • Add or edit guest information (registration or waitlist)
  • Export attendee data
Export includes:
  • Primary attendees
  • Guests
  • Waitlisted users
To check status details:
  • Hover over the status tooltip for more information

Warning Important
Guests are included in capacity calculations and must be considered when promoting attendees from the waitlist.
Best Practices:
  • Set a clear guest limit per attendee
  • Monitor total capacity including guests
  • Manually review waitlist promotions when guests are included
  • Keep guest data accurate for proper event planning
