Article summary


You can check out multiple guests without the need for defining any information (name, email address, etc.) for each Attendee through our guest checkout process!

Example use case: I am a student registering for a graduation ceremony. I am allowed to bring 5 guests. Through this process, I can register myself and the names of my guests. Guests will not be able to register for the Event without having a primary Attendee created.

Setup

  1. Create an Event.
  2. Create a new Event Item.
  3. Set Type = "Guest".
  4. Define the fields you want the Attendee to define for the guest.
