Overview
EasyREG was designed from the beginning to be a fully customizable and
user friendly program that could be used by any business, church, or
sports organization to perform online event registrations. Once the
account is setup your organization can use EasyREG to create an unlimited
number of event registrations, each with their own unique form. If you
choose, the EasyREG staff will work with you to mimic your web sites "look
and feel" so that when people submit registrations it looks as if they
never leave your site. Full step by step instructions are provided in our
online tutorial. What follow here is an overview of the program and what it
can do for you.
Creating a Registration Form
Using EasyREG is a very easy and straightforward process. Each new event
begins with its creation from the main EasyREG administrator page. Once
this is done EasyREG provides you with a tool called "Build a Form" so
that you can build, edit, and publish a registration form with no prior
programming knowledge. Finally, EasyREG provides you with an option
called sign up page. If you choose to add your customized sign up
page to your site you can, with a click of a button, instantly add and
remove event registration forms from your site.
Communicating with your Registrants
Now that you have created a form for your event you need to decide if you
want to send emails to your registrants. EasyREG has 4 registration states
(Pending, Approved, Paid and Held). Three of these states (Pending,
Approved and Paid) have corresponding email templates that you can edit
and use to send emails to your registrants when their registration falls
into that state. You can use these states and email templates any way you
like depending on the particular event that you are accepting
registrations for ... or
not use them at all. The emails are a way of automating your communication
with each individual providing them with information on the state of their
registration request.
Accepting credit card payments
Another feature in EasyREG is the ability to accept credit card payments
if there is a fee associated with your event. This task is
performed by our partnering with Paypal. To use this functionality you
must first setup a Paypal account. For more information on Paypal and how
it works, visit the Paypal site today.
Working with your registration data
As registration requests start coming in for your event they are, by
default, placed in the "pending" state in your EasyREG account.
When viewing your event you
will be given the ability to approve these registrations, mark them as
paid (if applicable) or add in a note in for that
particular registration. You can also view all of your data all at
once, sort it by columns, to see your information in one consolidated
view. Need to download that data? No problem. EasyREG
allows you to download the registration data for importing
into an Excel spreadsheet. You
can even communicate with the registrants through the use of our email
broadcast tool. The broadcast tool can be used to communicate with the
participants in one particular event or every event that you have listed
in your EasyREG program. An event cancelled or rescheduled? Let
everyone know at once with one email message.
Sharing your registration data
There may be times when you may want to grant viewing access to your
registration data for an event (maybe the event's organizer). EasyREG
accommodates this need with our "Share Data" tool. By giving an organizer
the share data link they can see who has registered for a particular
event that they are organizing. If they need to download this information
to get it organized you can also give them access to the data through a
password that you set up within EasyREG for that event. In this way, you
continue to control the data but your event organizer can access and sort
it as they do their planning.
Security
Finally, EasyREG is secure. It is a password protected site so only you,
and those that you allow access, can manipulate the registration data.
Your data lives on high availability servers which are backed up
nightly. If
you are interested in learning more we recommend that you
try out our demo
or sign up for a 30 day trial membership. Finally we recommend that you
read through our in-depth online tutorial.
