Set the participation form for an event

Understand when an event needs a Participation Form and when a Booking Form or Check-in Form is the better fit.

1 min read

Ask attendees the right questions at the right moment by choosing the form that fits. Use a Participation Form when the event needs extra questions as part of the Touchpoint journey itself, not just during booking or on-site arrival. A workshop might ask for experience level before participation continues; a product demo might ask for a preferred session topic.

Keep the three event forms separate:

  • The Booking Form belongs to ticket reservation.
  • The Check-in Form belongs to arrival on site.
  • The Participation Form belongs to the broader Touchpoint flow.

For many bookable events, the booking-time or arrival-time form is the better fit.

Choose the form by moment

Ask when the question should appear: during booking, during the Touchpoint flow, or at check-in. That answer usually tells you which form to configure.
