Options for Directing Guests to Checkout
-
Share your organization’s Landing Page with attendees. You can find the URL/QR code on the home page of your event, in the Welcome area.

-
Use Mass Messaging to send guests a message including the [p] short code, which populates a direct payment link to their cart to check out.

-
Enable the Silent Item Winning Text Message under Software Settings > Auction Settings > Payment to send a direct link to the payment screen.
