Connect Cvent
Your attendees come in automatically.
A walkthrough with sample data: an event and its agenda in Cvent; Cvent connected to Cvent Plus; attendees synced; a WhatsApp campaign and a Contact Lookup registration flow; the invitation arriving on an attendee’s phone, Register tapped, the confirmation, the QR entry pass and the agenda; and the registrations shown in the Inbox.
Cvent Plus
Register your Cvent attendees on WhatsApp in one tap.
The problem
Your attendees use WhatsApp. Your event is in Cvent.
Cvent sends invitations by email, and many go unread. Moving to WhatsApp today means a lot of copying by hand.
- Invitations get missedEmails go unread. WhatsApp messages get seen.
- Lots of manual workYour team copies lists out of Cvent and enters every reply by hand.
- Data doesn’t matchA reply on WhatsApp never reaches Cvent on its own.
