How to Check-Out as an Attendee

Event.Gives uses a cart system to pay for items and donations. Therefore, your combination of fixed-price items, raffle tickets, auction items won, and/or donations you may have made will all remain in your cart until you are ready to pay.

We suggest sending the Payment Link blast message after your event. The blast message will only be sent to attendees with outstanding items in their carts. 

1. Go to the 'Messaging' tab.
2. Scroll down to "Send Payment Links."
3. Click the blue "Send Now" button.

If you do not send a Payment Link blast message, your attendees can still access and pay their carts:

• You can access your cart by clicking the cart icon in the upper right-hand corner of your event's webpage, pictured below:

• After selecting cart icon, you will see an itemized list of your current unpaid items. Once you have confirmed the cart contents, you are able to click the blue "Next" button in order to select a payment method and complete the transaction. 

• After clicking next you can select a pay-source from your available pay-sources. If you do not have a pay-source on file, you can add one by entering your card information into the fields provided. *Please note: Depending on the browser used, you may also choose to pay with Apple Pay or Google Pay.  

• Once you enter your payment information, simply hit the blue "Complete Purchase" button to complete your transaction. 

• After paying for your cart, you will receive a receipt via email. If you do not have an email on file at the time of your transaction please login to event.gives/account or support@event.gives for a new receipt.
