- View completed and future event information
- Download certificates for completed events (if they have been sent one)
- View and update personal information e.g email address, phone numbers, or postal address etc
- Pay for any outstanding orders
- Cancel their registration or transfer to another date (if allowed)
- Manage waiting list registrations
Once the customer portal has been enabled, you can choose to send registrants portal instructions when they register for an event automatically, and also send portal instructions to existing contacts using a batch action email.
