Collecting info from guests

Updated 3 Oct 2026

Registration questions let you collect information from guests when they RSVP. Useful for dietary requirements, t-shirt sizes, skill levels, or anything else you need to know before the event.


Adding questions

In the event editor, open the Registration questions section and add your questions. Each question has a text prompt and can be set as required or optional.

Guests see and answer the questions as part of the RSVP flow — before their registration is confirmed.


Guest names

Every guest gives their name — it's the first row of Registration questions, always on. By default that's their full name, the one on their profile. Choose First and last name and every guest types both, side by side, when they register for this event — handy for name badges, or when you need the name as it is on an ID rather than a nickname. The two parts appear in your guest list, at check-in and as separate columns in the CSV export. To fix a typo, open the guest's details in the guest list on cloomba.com.


Viewing answers

Answers are visible in the guest list. Click on any guest to see their full profile and the answers they submitted. You can also export the full guest list including answers as a CSV.


Tips

  • Keep it short — every extra required question reduces conversions. Only ask what you genuinely need.
  • Mark optional clearly — guests appreciate knowing which questions they can skip.
  • Use it for logistics — questions work well for practical things like meal choices or accessibility needs, not for gatekeeping attendance (use Require approval for that).
