Hi Community,

I am looking to run a large event, where there will be a number of 'Host' attendees.

Hosts will be known prior to the event, therefore can be preregistered, however regular Attendees will be selected by Hosts at any point in the lead up to the event, and may register through a Cvent registration site.

The issue I am running into is I cannot determine a way to assign 'Tables' to a host, with a set amount of seats per table.
This would ideally grant each Host's party a certain capacity for attendees to prevent overbooking.

One potential solution I thought of would be to provide each Host with a 'password', which when entered by an attendee into a field would allow them to register, and assign them a corresponding Registration Type with set capacity. I am unsure however whether such a thing can be set up.

Ideally, without a Host, an attendee would not be able to register.

Any ideas on how I could pull this off?

Thanks!

Hi Cameron,

Voucher codes sound to be exactly what you are looking for! Provide each host with a code that they can provide to their selected attendees and place a capacity on the code. Attendees will then need to use a code to register or else they cannot proceed: https://support.cvent.com/s/communityarticle/Adding-Voucher-Codes-to-a-Flex-Event?is_article=true&lang=en_US&searchFor=voucher%20codes&page=1

I've never used Voucher Codes. How are they different than Discount Codes?

Discount codes allow you to offer different pricing structures, while voucher codes act as true passwords to the event. The voucher code is the first thing a registrant enters before being allowed to register for the event. Voucher codes are very commonly used when invite groups of people from different organizations and allow you to set a capacity on how many can come from each group.
