Discount code

When using the paid webinar option in WebinarGeek, you're able to set up a discount code. Once you've done that, you should add a discount code field on your registration page. People can then register for the paid webinar with a discount code.

You’re able to change the order of all registration fields. In order to do this, simply click and drag the field to the desired location in the list. When you let go of the mouse button, the order will save.

With the new GDPR privacy laws, it's required to request permission from people that register in order to legally process and/or save their personal data.

When adding consent fields to the registration form of your webinars, there are two options.

General consent fields

You can create consent fields that are used for all created webinars in the account.

To do this, follow the steps:

Consent fields for each webinar
