When you need to gather information specific to individual attendees during registration, attendee questions are the way to go! The registrant answers these questions for each attendee before they complete the registration.
If you need to collect information from the entire registration group rather than individual attendees, use registration questions instead!
Tip
Unsure which type of question to use? Check out the Collecting information with signups article to help you decide.
As you begin adding questions to your signup, it is recommended to have five or fewer attendee questions because registrants have only 15 minutes to answer attendee questions and add-ons for all attendees if a capacity is set for any selection type. If you must create more than five questions, consider adding an attendee form instead.
