“I have always had timely and effective responses from Event Smart”
I work for a winery in southern MN and I have always had timely and effective responses from Event Smart. I don’t have time to wait on hold for hours at a time and I have never had to do that with their team. All of my requests were taken care of within an hour via the chat! So happy to use such a great program! –Courtney Malone

I have an existing website. Can I add Event Smart there?
Yes, you can add the Event Smart calendar, events list, and pricing option selector through an embed to any existing website, such as Weebly, Wix, and WordPress.com so an attendee can start their registrations.
I want to allow more than one attendee to register for my social at a time. Are group registrations available?
Yes! You can allow group registrations by checking the Personal Information question group for additional registrants through the lower right area of the event editor on your Event Smart website and then saving changes.

For accepting online payments, you’ll partner with a secure payment service like Stripe, Authorize.net, Braintree, PayPal, or another supported payment service. This means that you’ll enter your credentials for the payment service in your Event Smart settings and then you will receive those funds for each paid registration to your merchant account.
