Register multiple attendees to the same event
Corsizio does not function like a ticketing service or a shopping cart, and your attendees cannot register several people to an event as part of one registration transaction. However, Corsizio provides your attendees with an alternate solution to easily register more than one person to the same event, which will be explained in this help doc.
In Corsizio, every event registration is associated with a single attendee and is managed independently for proper record keeping. This means that each attendee has their own registration card in your account with their own activity log and notes for each event. You have the ability to track all payment and financial data precisely for each attendee, rather than deal with any group transactions. This is very important when it comes to providing discounts, transfers, cancellations, and refunds. It also benefits the attendees, as each one receives their own email confirmations, receipts, and notifications.
Multiple attendee registration flow
When a person is registering for one of your events, at the bottom of the registration form there is an FAQ called "How to register multiple people?" that opens an information panel about this action when selected.
When the second registration in this flow is complete and submitted, the person is again presented with the option to "Register another person", and they can continue this flow as many times as needed.
Summary
To keep the flow simple, clean, and clear, a customer registers a single attendee to a specific event, one at a time.
How duplicate event registrations are prevented
A duplicate registration message will appear if the attendee name and email address combo are identical on a registration to the same event, as this indicates that the correct attendee information is not being collected. While the same email address can be used to register multiple people, each registration must be associated with a unique attendee name, which is the actual person who will be attending. A duplicate registration will, therefore, not be processed by the system.
If you wish to "Allow duplicate registrations" to the same event for any reason, you can override this default setting in Step 5 - Filters & Settings when editing or creating an event.
How to register children or animals
If the person filling out and submitting the event registration is trying to register any children or animals, then the attendee's name must be that of the child or the animal, as they are the actual attendees. The parent or guardian's name is secondary and would be collected using a custom field on the registration form as needed for contact or other purposes.
As mentioned in the duplicate registration note above, the email address can be the same on multiple registrations to the same event if a parent or some company rep is filling out registration forms for others, but the attendee name must be unique for each registration.
This process ensures that the event or class size numbers are accurate and correctly identify the focal participant in the event.
