Bulk registration for an event

Add-on. Please contact your sales representative for additional information.

With bulk registration, you can register hundreds or thousands of attendees for an event at one time. Set up your registration form first, then upload a spreadsheet with columns for each registration question on the form (attendee names, email addresses, etc.). To learn more about setting up the registration form, see Set up the registration form for an event.

Notes:

  • Bulk registration doesn’t send a registration confirmation email. Set up a reminder email to send event details to registrants. 
  • You can view the registrant data you uploaded in the Audience Details report. To learn more about running reports, see Run event reports.
  • You can't make changes to registrant data or unregister someone once you upload the file.

Upload file requirements

Create a spreadsheet and enter registration details for each attendee you want to register.

  • Supported formats include CSV, TSV, TXT, XML, XLS, XLSX
  • Limit the number of registrants per upload to 2,000 or less
  • Include one column for each registration field on your registration form
    • For standard registration questions, label columns with the Type label

  • For each registrant, complete all fields that you required in the registration form. Required fields can't be blank.
  • Email address is always required. Each registrant's email address must be unique. Duplicate email addresses are not accepted.
