Updated 4 months ago

If you do not have or cannot use the email address of your participants, you can register them by using a username.
How do I enable username access instead of email access?
To enable this tool, at the company level, go to Account > Tools on the left sidebar menu.
When accessing the tools, look for the Login section. Then, you should enable Usernames by checking the checkbox. By doing that, the participants can be registered in the event by the admin and access the Virtual Lobby and mobile app with no need to type their email addresses.
Registering attendees
Once you have enabled the usernames functionality, you will be able to register new participants by entering only their full name and username. Since you enabled Username as a login option, the Email field will be optional.
Registering attendees manually
To register attendees manually, go to People > Attendees > press + Add person. A window will pop up and you should enter your attendee information according to the indicated fields, as shown below:
