An organization page can be created in the registration form during the Organisation Details step. In this step, you have two options: Join an Existing Organization or Create a New Organization. Below the option to join an existing organization based on your email address, select the option to create a new organization.
When you select this option, additional organization-related fields will appear. Enter a name for your organization, select its organization type, and complete the remaining fields marked as mandatory. Once you have filled in all the required fields, click Continue to proceed with the registration process.
There are two ways of joining an existing organization; by selecting an existing organization in the registration form or by accepting Organization Administrator invitation.
Joining an existing organization in the registration form
Based on your email address, the system will recommend existing organizations that you may join. Below each organization’s name, you will see the name of the Organization Admin, which may help you decide which organization is correct. Select the one you are a part of and click Continue to proceed with the registration process.
Joining an existing organization by accepting the invitation
Once invited by the Organization Administrator, click on the Register for the Event button in the invitation email. You will need to either accept or decline the invitation. If you accept the invitation, you can proceed with the registration process, skipping the Organisation Details step, as you will be automatically registered within the invited organization.
The first step in adding representatives is to have an organization page created during the registration process. Only the organization's Administrator can send invites to join an existing organization.
Inviting an existing participant
On your dashboard, click on the name of your organization to access the organization page.
On the organization page, click on the Representatives tab. After that, click on the Send invites button. This will open the Invite representatives modal. Here you can type in the email address which the participant used to register for the event and click on Send invite.
The participant will receive a notification that he has been invited to join your organization as a representative via email. They will also see the organization’s name on their dashboard. They can accept or decline your invitation on the Add organization page widget.
Inviting a new participant
Navigate to your organization’s page from your dashboard. Then, on the Representatives tab, click on Send invites.
Next, type in the mail of the organization representative you want to invite to the event and add to your organization. The organization representative will then get the invitation and the link to register for the event via email.

Yes, you can register without an organization if the event rules allow it. In that case, the Organisation Details step will be skipped in the registration form.
If you see a message saying "Your profile is waiting to be activated, until then you are not visible to other participants." when you log in, it means that the event organizers have not done so yet.
If you believe your profile should have been activated already, please check the Contacts page and let the event organizers know.
