One email field for entire registration process?

Could we remove one of the email fields in the checkout process? When the FirstData plugin is used, the checkout process first asks what I think are EE data questions then it asks for an email for the payment page too.

Hi there,

FirstData require that data so we can’t remove it, but you can hide it using CSS:

#eea-payeezy-billing-form-email-input-dv {
    display: none;
}

Add that to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS.

Can the EE email field be set to not be required? What downstream impacts does that have?

Can the EE email field be set to not be required?

No.

The bare minimum EE requires on the registration form is First Name and Email Address.

OR.. possibly only hide the ee email field for the “subscriber” role?

Which email field are you referring to?

The reg form for Event Espresso will always require an email at least once.

The email field for the FirstData payment method is passed the email address set on the Primary Registrant (the email address required by the EE reg form) but its displayed to allow you to change it (the Primary Registrant is not always the payee) so you can hide that due to the fact that it is required on the registration form.
