Group Events
Register a whole office in one action.
Enroll a team, cohort, franchise location, or department into an event as a single transaction, then manage the roster afterwards without chasing nine individual signups by email.

The gap in the WordPress ecosystem
How group registration works
Everything available to you.
One transaction, many attendees, and a roster that stays manageable afterwards.
Roles
Who can register a group
- A team or group leader for their own members
- A coach for their cohort
- A company buyer purchasing seats for staff
- An admin, on behalf of anyone
Allocation
Seats
- Buy or reserve a block of places in one action
- Assign named attendees, or leave seats open to claim
- Hold seats for a team without naming anyone yet
- Release unclaimed seats back before the event
After registration
Roster management
- Swap one attendee for another without canceling and rebooking
- Add to the group as numbers grow
- Remove someone and free the seat automatically
- See who has confirmed and who has not
Commerce
Payment
- One invoice for the whole group rather than nine receipts
- Group rates and volume pricing
- Purchase orders and offline payment for corporate buyers
- Included seats, where a membership tier covers a number of places
What the buyer sees
Reporting
- Attendance for their group only
- Percentage watched per team member
- Comparison against other groups where you allow it
- Export for their own internal reporting
Worked example
A franchise registering twelve locations
One buyer, twelve offices, roughly ninety people, and no spreadsheet.
Regional training day
12 locations
Register
Regional manager buys 90 seats in one transaction
One invoice, one purchase order, one checkout.
Register
Each location manager claims their allocation
They assign their own staff. The regional manager never collects names.
Schedule
Unclaimed seats release back seven days out
So the final headcount is real rather than aspirational.
Attend
Attendance records per person and per location
Which turns into a league table if you want one.
Reward
Each location manager gets their own report
Their people only, which is both more useful and a privacy requirement.

Three things worth knowing.
Note
Group registration is a B2B feature wearing a B2C interface. Design it for the buyer, who is usually not attending.
Note
Always let seats be reassigned. Staff turnover between purchase and event is normal, and a locked seat becomes a refund request.
Note
Give the buyer their own report. It is the thing that gets your event renewed next year.
