Take registrations for events and courses

List events and courses on your site, take free or paid sign-ups up to a capacity with a waitlist, and send confirmations.

Events and courses are lists on your site. Each one has its own page and a sign-up form.

Steps

  1. Open Website → Events or Website → Courses, or ask the chat to add them to your site.
  2. Add an event with its date, time, place, description and capacity, or a course with its description, lessons, price and capacity.
  3. For paid courses, connect a payment provider. See Take payments at checkout.
  4. Publish. On a live site, new items go live within a few minutes.
  5. See sign-ups in Messages & customers → Registrations or Enrollments.

Capacity and waitlists

When an event or course is full, new sign-ups join a waitlist. If a place opens up, the next person is offered it by email.

Emails

The ready-made Registration & Enrolment Emails automation sends confirmations, reminders and waitlist offers. It is on by default, and you can switch off each email in Messages & customers → Email → Automations.

Good to know

  • You can cancel or refund a registration or enrolment from its row.
  • People can cancel their own place with the View or cancel button in their emails.
  • Turn on customer sign-in so students can return to what they bought: Site settings → Customer portal.
  • Selling files instead? Digital downloads keep paid files private until someone buys them.
