Moderators can be added in the webinar wizard after publishing your webinar or during your webinar from the webinar page. Moderators can handle the chat and make sure viewers' questions are answered.

Learn hands-on how to prepare your moderators here!

Moderators are not included in the Basic plan. Please upgrade to a Premium or Enterprise account in order to add moderators to your webinar.

  6. Click on 'Save' or 'Save and add another'.

Adding a moderator to your webinar team

If you want to add a team member with more or less rights, you can add a custom team member.
