Hello and thank you. We have many high end courses online and EE is great!. But we also have small monthly meeting fees at $10 that we have been running on Eventbrite. We would like to transfer this to EE as “events”. I need to force payment via our Paypal – meaning – not allowing Pending Payment or any other way of payment, since our volume is high. Once paid, they would get a Confirmation Email with Zoom info. Need something simple…they register and pay and get the confirmation Zoom info. thank you so much! Appreciate you all!

Hi there,

We have many high end courses online and EE is great!

Thank you, I’m glad you like it 🙂

I need to force payment via our Paypal – meaning – not allowing Pending Payment or any other way of payment, since our volume is high.

May I ask, why block pending payment is a requirement here?

Pending Payment registration don’t count towards your sold values, only Approved registrations do. Registrations are automatically approved is you set the ‘Default Registration Status’ to ‘Approved’ (most users should leave that setting a Pending Payment, which is the default anyway) when they pay in full or the ticket is free. You (the admin) can also manually set the registration status to whatever you like to override the standard flow.

Anyway, the point is that Pending Payment registrations don’t count towards your sales so I’m wondering why you are trying to prevent them here?

Once paid, they would get a Confirmation Email with Zoom info. Need something simple…they register and pay and get the confirmation Zoom info.

Are you setting each individual meetup as a separate event for this or a single event with multiple datetimes?

I ask because it changes what you need to do to get this working moving forward.
