Where is it?
You’ll work in two main locations here:
Registration customization happens in the Form Editor:
You’ll also use the Attendees tab to add and manage attendees:
Choosing a registration method
Depending on your needs, you can register attendees in several ways:
- You can send invitations to register, and attendees can accept or decline.
- You can import a list of attendees into MeetMax, and batch-send the login details.
- You can set up a public registration form for attendees, and moderate registrations.
- You can also add Attendees individually.
MeetMax registration is highly customizable, and the methods above are just a starting point. Reach out to our Support team to discuss deeper customizations. |
Customizing the Attendee registration form
As with all forms in MeetMax, the Attendee registration form is fully customizable. You can add, remove, and reorder fields, or create your own custom fields.
Required fields
The way you use required fields in your form depends on how you’re registering attendees.
If you’re sending invitations or importing a list of attendees, you’ll need information for all of the required form fields. So you’ll want to set the required fields based on the details you can access.
If you’re using public registration, it can be helpful to use more required fields, to make sure you’re capturing all the details you need as people sign up:
Notifying the Attendee
Once you've added or imported a list of Attendees, you can send a batch email to let them know they're registered for your event.
What the Attendee does after registering
When the Attendee clicks the link in their registration email, they're taken to their personal login page:
This page will be branded for your event, and contain the menu options you’ve enabled. |
When the Attendee clicks the Notifications icon, they’ll see a page of further steps to take:
Meeting Requests
On the Meeting Requests tab, the Attendee sees all of the companies that are open to 1x1 meetings.
The Attendee can click the Request link to enter a meeting request:
Learn more about meeting requests here.
Adding Blackout times
In MeetMax, “blackout times” or “blackouts” are the time slots when the attendee isn’t available for 1x1 meetings.
Each Attendee can choose any time slots to exclude from meeting scheduling:
Adding Profile information
The Attendee can also update their Profile tab with any details not captured during registration.
These details help Companies with granting meeting requests:
Learn more about Profiles here.
Signing up for Activities
On the Activities tab, the attendee can sign up for business and social events, such as meals, workshops, tours, receptions, and so on:
All of the activities they've signed up for appear on the Your Schedule tab.

Signing up for Presentations
On the Presentations tab, the Attendee can see the presentation schedule and click to register for the ones they're interested in:
All of the presentations they've signed up for appear on the Your Schedule tab.
