Hiding your Category

The first step to this process is hiding your Registration Category so that it is not accessible to registrants who access your Event Website from a public source. 

  1. From the Event Dashboard, navigate to Registration > Categories and select the category you wish to edit from the list

  1. Under Basic Settings, toggle on the Hidden Checkbox

  1. Select Save Changes

Sharing your Hidden Category

Now that you have hidden your Category from general registrants, the next step is sharing the access link with your desired individuals. 

  1. From the Event Dashboard, navigate to Registration > Categories and select the category you wish to edit from the list

  1. Above the Categories table, select Actions > Direct Access Link

The access link will now be visible for you to copy and share with your desired registrants. When this link is accessed, the Category selection step will be skipped and the registrant will automatically begin registration under the associated Category.

Conclusion

Managing exclusive ticket access in PheedLoop is simple and effective. By hiding a Registration Category and sharing a direct access link, you can ensure that specific ticket types, such as VIP or discounted tickets, are only available to selected individuals.
