How to allow people to RSVP on your Zeffy form?

Need to track who's coming to your event? Zeffy offers two effective methods to collect RSVPs from your attendees. Here's how you can set it up:

Option 1: Create a free ticket form

1. Create a new event form in your Zeffy dashboard
2. Set up your event details:
   • Enter your event name, description, and location
   • Add the event date and time
   • Set the sales close date (when you want to stop accepting RSVPs)
3. Create your free ticket:
   • Click "Add ticket" in the Tickets section
   • Set the ticket price to $0
   • Add a description of what's included
   • Click the "See more options" button to set a maximum capacity if needed
     
4. Add custom questions to gather additional information:
   • Click "Add question" in the form questions section
   • Use "Questions for the buyer" for information you need once per registration
