How to create attendee types

Events include various types of participants, such as guests, exhibitors, VIPs, speakers, and more. With Eventtia, you can create as many participant types as you need, tailored to your event’s specific requirements.

We recommend keeping your audience segmentation as simple as possible. For each participant type, you can customize elements such as event access (virtual or in-person), the registration form, welcome messages, confirmation emails, ticket pricing, and available spots.

When you create your event, a default participant type called 'Participant' will appear. You can customize it and add other participant types as needed.

 

The steps to creating types of participants are:

Step 1:

  • Go to the Registration module and click on 'Types'.

Note: If you want to edit the information of an existing participant type, click on its card and make the necessary changes. Remember to save your edits before navigating to another tab.

Step 3:

  • Set up the information you wish to collect based on the participant type, keeping in mind the specific requirements of each tab:
