Event types
Choose Booking and Check-In when people reserve a place, or Check-In Only when they just turn up.

Every Activity has one of two types. You choose it in the Activity's Slots tab, under Event Type.
Which type to choose
| Booking and Check-In | Check-In Only | |
|---|---|---|
| Attendees | Pick a time, book, then check in on the day | Turn up and check in |
| You set up | Tickets, capacity per slot, sale dates, booking emails | Dates and check-in |
| You get | A guest list, confirmations, and booked-versus-attended reports | Attendance on the day |
| Good for | Workshops, classes, VIP sessions, guided visits | Photo booths, kids' corners, late-night openings |
On the attendee page, a bookable event shows Book Now. A check-in-only event shows Check-In Now.

Check-In Only runs on one ticket that attendees never see, and Studio doesn't show it. If a check-in-only Activity reports a missing ticket, or more than one, contact your Customer Success Manager. Send the campaign name, the Activity name and the exact message.
