    Open the waitlist

    Use the event's attendee management area to find registrations with Waitlisted status.

  3. 3

    Promote and verify

    Apply the promotion action and confirm the attendee now shows the intended status.

Good to know

  • Do not promote more attendees than the event can safely hold.

  • Payment or approval requirements may still affect the final registration state.
