How To Use The RegBooth Event Registration Website
|
| |
For Attendees:
- On the RegBooth home page click on the image of the location where you want to attend.
- Click on the date you want to attend then click Register.
- Fill in your information.
- If you're bringing any guests, click on Add an Attendee and fill in their information.
- Click the Save button for a free event or Pay for Ticket for a paid event.
- When paying for tickets, you'll need to setup an account if you don't have one. Then you'll
need to agree to the terms and provide your credit card details.
For free events, you can register without an account by going to your email and clicking a link to
confirm your registration. You'll then have the option of creating an account for faster registration next time.
Note that if you are the administrator or doing the check-in for attendees, you need to have a separate attendee
account when registering for an event.

Follow these steps:
- In the USA you can apply for a merchant account online. Apply by clicking:
Apply Now >>>

go here, then follow the steps at the bottom for Canada.
- When you are approved, sign into your demo account.
- On the left, click on Upgrade to a Paid Account. (This choice is shown after your merchant account is approved.)
- Accept the agreement.
- Choose a Monthly or Yearly plan.
- Give your credit card details and pay the first month or year of fees.

For Administrators:
Only an administrator can change organization settings. Go to the RegBooth homepage,
click on your organization's image, enter your email and password at the top, then click Administrator/Check-in.
To setup other users as administrators or to do the check-in to the event, type their name and email.
Then choose what type of user they are and click the Save button.
They will receive an email where they can click a link to pick their password.
Note: an administrator can also do check-in so you don't need to create a separate user for yourself to do the check-in.
Just click on the View Attendees button to switch to the check-in page.
Rather than requiring each attendee to register for an event, you may want to upload a list of attendees.
(Only for free events.)
Then you could select which of those in the list are planning to attend. You may or may not want the
user who does the check-in to be able to do this. Choose what you want them to be able to do.
(The steps for doing this are explained below in the Check-in section.)
To remove a user's access, choose them in the list and click the Delete button.
To add an event, pick the date and start/end times of the event. Then enter the title, subtitle
and description. Some HTML is allowed in the description as explained on the left. For a paid event
enter the ticket price. Also select whether tickets have tax included or it is extra. Click Save
to save the event.
To edit an existing event, select it from the list, change something then click Save.
To create a copy of an event on another date, select an event, then go back and choose
Or Create a Copy of an Event. Then enter the date/time of the new event and click Save.
Only administrators can add/edit events.
Note that an administrator needs to have a separate attendee account when registering for an event.
|
For Check-in Users:
After you sign in, select which event you are monitoring. Then as attendees arrive, put a checkmark
beside their name.
To download a CSV file of those who registered for an event, click the Download as CSV File button.
The file will have three groups: those who started registering, those who completed their registration and
those who actually attended.
If the administrator gives you permission, you will have the option of uploading a list of names and manually
registering them for an event.
The file should be a spreadsheet saved in a CSV or TXT format. It should have a name column,
at the very least. For them to receive an email confirming their registration, add an email column.
You can also add a column with their phone #. The columns need to be the first three columns but can be in any order.
Any extra columns will be ignored. To upload the file, click on the Browse... button then select the file.
If the file is not automatically uploaded, click the Upload Attendees button.
To register new attendees for an event: (only for free events)
- Select which event to add the attendees to.
- Click on the Register More Attendees button.
- Click on each attendee to be registered for the event. They will be sent an email confirming their registration.
Note that a check-in user needs to have a separate attendee account when registering for an event.
