How to register for an event
To attend an event, you'll first need to visit the Event Portal > Home > Register page. Alternately, you may have received a direct link to a registration form that you can follow, which will take you straight to a registration form.
Let's see what registering a sample event (the ClearEvent 7th Annual FinTech Expo) looks like:
Choose a registration form to register for the event
The Event Portal > Home > Register page shows all available event registration forms that are presently published and that are open to receive registrations. Let's register as a "VIP" for this event by clicking the Register > button for the "VIP Registration" form.
Register
Let's register as a VIP for this event by clicking the Register > button beside the "VIP Attendee Registration" form.
At the Register step, simply fill out the event registration form to complete your registration.
đĄTIP: If you already have a ClearEvent Account, click Sign In and enter an existing Email (your UserName) and Password. Use the Forgot Password link if you can't remember your Sign In details. Signing in will automatically fill in your standard user profile fields on the registration form.
Registration confirmation
When you register for an event that uses ClearEvent, you will receive a registration confirmation email after signing up.
This email should arrive within a few minutes of successfully submitting your registration.
If you don't receive your registration confirmation email:
You can visit the My Orders page directly to view any Registration and Tickets orders.
Check your Junk Mail folder (most email systems), Promotions tab (Gmail) or Clutter folder (Outlook) to make sure the registration confirmation email was not flagged as spam. If it was, add the email sender to your "safe senders" list so that you'll receive future emails from ClearEvent on behalf of the event.
If you have a corporate IT Department, check with them to see if a spam filter on the corporate email server has quarantined the email.
If you still can't find the email, please contact ClearEvent Technical Support and let us know you did not receive your registration confirmation email.
Attaching files to a registration form
Some events may need to collect additional information that is not well suited to an online registration form (e.g. signed waiver, photo identification, insurance certificate, etc.).
In this case you may be asked to produce and attach various documents.

Registering For Events With Fees
Some events may choose to charge a fee to register. If so, you'll see the following Fees step:
Click the button for the appropriate fee to continue to the next step. To complete your registration you'll be prompted to pay at the end of the form.
Choosing a payment method
If the event offers more than one way to pay for the fee you selected, you'll see a Choose a payment method section at the payment step:
Choose Pay Online to pay now by entering your credit card details.
Choose one of the event's other options (for example, paying by check, or paying when you arrive at the event) to see the event organizer's Payment Instructions. Follow those instructions to send your payment. Your registration may not be approved until the event receives your payment.
If the event offers only one way to pay, you won't be asked to choose. You'll go straight to the credit card details, or to the organizer's Payment Instructions.
NOTES: If the Pay Online option is shown as "Unavailable", the event has not set up online payments yet. Choose one of the other options, or contact the event organizer.
Registering for events with products
Some events may choose to sell additional items or products (e.g. T-Shirts, Parking Passes, Meal Vouchers, Premium Access, etc.).
If so, you'll see the following Products step:
Select the desired quantity and click Next > to proceed to the next step to complete the registration form. Often, products are optional so you can sometimes skip this step.
Click the Cart button to view what fees and products have been added to your registration order.
To complete your registration you'll be prompted to pay at the end of the form, using the payment method you chose (or the only one the event offers).
When will my registration be approved?
Depending on the event organizer's preference, your registration will either be approved instantly at the time you register, or the event organizer will need to manually review and approve your registration at a later time.
If your registration requires the additional approval step, you will be informed during the registration checkout and you'll receive a final email confirmation whenever your registration is approved or declined by the event organizer.
â ď¸IMPORTANT: Your registration must be approved before you can attend the event.
Add the event to your calendar
After you've submitted your registration form, make sure to add the event date to your calendar so you don't forget about the event.
To add the event date to your calendar, simply click the calendar icon shown on the registration confirmation screen.
When youâve made your selection, you'll be presented with a new calendar entry which you can save to your calendar as a reminder.
Share you are attending with your social networks
You can quickly and easily share that you are attending an event by using the social network links on the confirmation page after you submit your registration.
If the event organizers have enabled the Share button, you will find it on the top right of the Event Portal header.
