How to maximize the number of guests who register a card on file prior to my event?

The best way to ensure more guests register a card on file prior to your event is through clear and timely communication. Learn about two strategies in this article.

Authorize Card Reminder Email

  • Send an automated or scheduled reminder email prompting guests to pre-authorize their card. The Authorize Card Reminder email includes a direct button for each guest to authorize their card.
  • Position the message as a convenience: registering early speeds up check-in and checkout.

Text Message Reminders

  • Follow up with a reminder text to guests who have not yet registered a card. A unique guest experience link is included at the end of every text message, based on your settings.
  • Keep the message short and action-oriented. 
  • Texts are especially effective closer to the event date when immediacy is key.

Pro-Tip: Frame the communication around guest convenience: faster entry, easier bidding, and smoother checkout. This increases compliance and reduces day-of delays.
