event isn’t sold out but registration count goes above available seats

I have 250 available, but already 305 people registrated.. They did not pay yet (bank transfer takes 2 day’s), so people can just keep registrering?

Hi Kevin,

This is a tricky situation.

There is an option to approve registrations automatically (closes event after a certain amount of registrations), but if you do that, then you could run into an issue where a significant amount of people do not follow through and pay.

The other scenario is what you are experiencing now where you have pending registrations (and there isn’t a way to know ahead of time who will follow through and pay).

I have a few ideas on minimizing this situation:

1) Remove any offline payments and only accept online payments

2) Use the not approved registration status and then you would manually change the registration status to pending payment and send a payment request
