Below are the simple steps to follow to get started with Wizevents registration and event management platform:
How to get there:
- Login to your Wizevents account.
- Click on the Registrations Forms tab.
- Click on the Create Form button.
What to do:
Step 1: Setting Up the Basics
Enter the form information, such as contact details, date and location details, description to appear at the top of the form, payment options, and notification options for registrants.
Not all information is required at the time of creating a new form. After the form has been created, you can add or update the form information.
Click Save to maintain your changes, or Discard to cancel your changes.
Step 2: Ticket and Optional Questions
Add the different ticket types that you are offering along with their name, description of what is included, pricing, position on the form, and quantities. Tickets Types can be for sponsorships, sponsor packages that include tickets, attendee tickets only, general donation field.
For each ticket you create:
- Select “Don’t ever ask for Attendee Names” if attendee names do not need to be collected for that ticket.
- Select “Registrant enters amount?” if the ticket is being used as a general donation option and the registrant or donor should be able to enter any donation amount.
Set the minimum and maximum ticket quantities that will appear in the registrant’s dropdown menu. For example, setting the range to 1–10 allows the registrant to select up to 10 tickets. The selected quantity will be multiplied by the ticket price to calculate the total cost.
If the ticket represents a group package sold for a single fixed price, enter the number of tickets included in the package as both the minimum and maximum values. For example, setting both fields to 5 will provide a package of 5 tickets for one fixed price. In this case, the system will not multiply the ticket price by the number of tickets in the package.
Once you have created your tickets, you can create optional questions, such as seating and meal preferences or space to include the ad copy for a journal, by clicking on the Custom Questions tab from the left hand menu and choose Add Question. You must select which tickets should ask each of your questions.
Questions can be:
Text Field, Text Box, Date Field, Email field, Multiple Choice, Section Heading.
