This feature is only available with the following products:

Q: I am collecting payments for an event and have a few payment options, however I would like one of the options to be for zero dollars so the registrant does not have to pay anything to register. Is this possible?

A: Yes. When entering the payment option (Event > Registration Payments), enter zero as the pricing (as shown below) and save the payment option.


In the example below, there is a payment option set up for golf and the meeting and meeting only. the meeting only option is free.

When a registrant selects a zero dollar payment option:

  • They can still purchase addons (if set up).

  • They will skip the payment step.

  • An invoice is not generated (in the Transaction History).

  • Registration confirmation emails will still be sent.

  • The Registration Report will still reflect the registration.

  • The number of purchases for that payment option will be updated to reflect the registration.

The following scenarios would need to use a zero dollar payment option:

  • When there is a meeting that also includes golf where the meeting is free, but golf is not.

  • Players part of a Membership Program can play in the event for no cost, but others need to pay.

  • Member-Guest event registration where the members can register (without paying) while the guests need to pay.
