| Option | Description |
| Everyone | When there is one fee for everyone, member, non-member, or guest. This option will usually be used on its own. |
| Any Non-Member | When non-members pay a different fee than members. |
| Non-Member of a specific category | When non-members in a category may pay a different fee than other non-members. |
| Non-Member Guest | When non-members bring a guest, who might pay a different fee. Use this option for children who might pay less than adults, or if the first non-member in a registration pays one fee but additional non-members pay a lower fee. |
| Active Members | When members pay a different fee than non-members. |
| Members by selected type | When members pay a different fee depending on their member type. This option will only be shown when we detect that the registrant has the specified type. |
| Committee Members | When committee members are eligible for a different fee. |
| Subgroup | When members of a chapter or district pay a different fee than other members. This option will only be shown when we detect that the registrant is a member of the specified subgroup. |
| Member Guest – secondary or tertiary | When members can bring other people in their own membership, such as spouses, children, or business associates. |
| Member Guest – another member | When members can sign up other members of the organization to be their guests. |
| Member Guest – a non-member | When members can bring non-members to the event as their guests. |
Some of these registrant types will prompt for additional information, such as a committee name or member type. You can then specify a display name (or leave it blank to use the registrant type name, a fee, and a visibility. If you specified that the fee changes after a certain date, you will see two fee fields, one for the initial charge and one for the changed charge.
Registrant Types that are visible to admins or coordinators only are useful if you want to have special pricing that is only available in special circumstances, or if you occasionally need a way to get around the normal event rules.
Some of these registrant types can be used multiple times in a single event.
You might have different rates for the members of different committees, or different rates for different member types.
When members or non-members try to register they may see multiple registrant types that apply to them, some with different fees, and they will naturally pick the lowest one. This is perfectly normal; the system will only show them registrant types for which they are eligible.
Click the Add button to add each registrant type to the list. Multiple registrant types may be added and you may even add the same registration type multiple times.
Once all the required registrant types have been defined, check the Panel is Complete box and click Save to save your changes, or Cancel to return without saving.
For a multi-activity event, this panel moves to each activity or item within the event.
Click the Who Can Register edit icon to define these registrant types.
Copying from Another Event
You can also copy registrant types from another event, if they are similar or if you regularly have events with the same parameters. You might also consider creating one or more “template” events of different types, perhaps under a special category, from which you can copy registrant types each time you have an event of that type.
Click the Copy from Another Event button, specify a Category and a starting date, then click the Search button. You will see a drop-down list of matching events from which one can be selected. When you click Copy, the registrant types from this event will be copied to the event you are currently working on. Or click Cancel to close the dialog without doing a copy.
The Event Calendar module also has single and multi-copy functions that will copy a whole event, including all its parameters.
