Approving entries for approval-based events

For approval-based events, you decide on each application individually. Staff with the ADMIN or COORDINATOR role can perform these operations.

Steps to approve

1. Show "Pending" attendees in the attendee management screen.
2. Review the applicant's profile.
3. Select "Approve" or "Decline". The applicant is notified of the result.

Operational tips

• Align criteria within your team beforehand — inconsistent decisions erode participants' trust.
• Approve early — long waits prevent applicants from securing their schedule and lead to drop-off. Set a regular time to process approvals.
• For paid tickets, check your ticket settings for when payment is captured.
