Waitlists have been available in Registrations for those signups where you just need to know how many people are coming. But wouldn’t it be great if waitlists were also available for signups that have a more moving parts to them?

We thought so!

We’re now bringing waitlists to detailed signups in Registrations!

Now you can manage every attendee's journey—from waitlisted to confirmed—with ease.

Waitlists for any church event type

With waitlists available across all Registrations events, you can apply the same great organizational tools to every single event you're planning—whether it's a simple gathering like a concert or a multifaceted weekend like an annual church-wide camping trip. 

It's about giving you the power to keep your events full and your attendees happy, without any extra steps.

Alert your entire waitlist to open spots with an email

But is there more? You know it! We've also introduced a brand new feature called "Notify" that will help you manage your waitlists. 

Imagine this: Some spots opened up in one of your events and you need to let the waitlisted attendees know. Instead of manually tracking them down, "Notify" allows you to send a bulk email to the entire waitlist.

The "first come, first served" principle still applies, so your event capacity will always stay right where it should. Your event won’t get overbooked and things stay organized.

We're excited anytime your event planning can become smoother. Now you can hone in on creating those unforgettable experiences for your community.
