Direct CRM Integrations are here!

Professional, Enterprise, and White Label clients can pass registration information to HubSpot and Salesforce directly with our native integrations. Once authenticated, attendee information can be matched with an existing record or created as new in HubSpot and Salesforce. To locate and configure these integrations, navigate to your organizer profile, then click the Integrations tab.

Organizers can now register a speaker as an attendee when they create a speaker profile.

Under your Manage Attendee Status settings, enable Attendee Access, select a ticket type, and click Apply. A “Speaker Registration Order” will be generated, and your speaker will have attendee access to the Virtual Event Hub.

This is available for free ticket types. Any paid ticket types will need to follow the usual registration process under “Add Attendees” or via the Event Landing Page.
