Browsing Tag registration form

Posted on March 14, 2012 // 0 Comments

So you have an event and you want to charge a fee to attend your event, but you don’t have a payment gateway. You’re in luck! We do, and you can use it whenever you like with very little effort on your part.

Before I explain how to set-up the DotCom Your Event (DCYE) payment gateway, there’s a few things to know:

• We offer our payment gateway in either US$ or CAN$
• The payment gateway accepts Visa, AMEX and MasterCard
• The fee to use our DCYE payment gateway is 5% per transaction. So, if you charge a $100.00 fee on your registration form, we retain $5.00. Why do we charge 5%?
• to cover the merchant fees associated with Visa, AMEX and MasterCard
• to cover gateway administration costs and banking fees
• to cover the administration of the payments, chargebacks and refunds on your behalf
• Any Event Wizard user can use the DCYE payment gateway
• How do you receive your money?
• At the end of your event click the ‘reconcile’ button in your account. We will contact you after that to begin the payout process so you can get your money
• Need to pay for venues, catering, go-go dancers (we don’t judge)? During a live event you can invoice us for up to 80% of the funds received to date. To do this send us a support ticket and we’ll contact you to begin the process.

Now that you know all the details, let’s go over how to add the payment gateway to your event.

First, login into your account and navigate the Edit menu for your event. Once there, scroll to the section labelled E-Commerce and choose the Payment Process icon 

Once you are in this section you will see a dropdown box on the right side under Online Payment Options. Click that dropdown and choose the correct currency:

Once you’ve chosen your currency, you will then want to fill out all of the Invoicer Information so registrants know you are billing them under the DCYE payment gateway.

The last thing you’ll need to decide is what happens after a registrant clicks Submit on your form. You can either serve them a page that shows the registrant details, which is referred to as the ‘Thank-You’ page, whereby they will review and then continue to the payment page. Or, you can send the registrant directly to the payment screen, oddly enough referred to as ‘Direct To Payment’. The Thank-You page will be the default method, so if you would like the Direct To Payment option instead you must choose that under Payment Options.

Once you’ve chosen your preferred settings click Save and you’ll now be set up to take registration fees.

If you have any questions, post to the comments or send us a support ticket.

It’s no secret that in the coming months we will be releasing our most significant Event Wizard update since the software was first introduced in 2001. Each week we have an internal meeting to review the progress of the software, and every week I get more and more excited to show our users and everyone else what has been created.

Well, much like an 8 year old boy shaking packages under the Christmas tree, I can’t wait any longer to show off some of what’s coming. So I decided to choose one aspect of the software that is the most commonly used…registration form templates.

It seems that no matter who is using Event Wizard most users want to start creating their forms from templates, so we’ve updated the entire library with many modern and attractive themes.

Here is a small sample of some of the event registration form templates that can be found in the new Event Wizard. All of which have been built using the new software.

You may have noticed in the above examples, the different navigation tab styling. Mike Schumann, our Design Guru, has built a very powerful yet easy to use interface that allows almost any tab design. Whether you want rounded tabs, bubbles for tabs, tabs at the top, tabs on the sides – you get the idea, and like Event Wizard now, the navigation tabs are just one of the many design elements you can customize.

Do you have any form templates that you would like to see in the registration form gallery?  Let us know by leaving a comment below, we just may include your idea in the new release of Event Wizard.
