Learn how to capture information for new Customers in a Registration Form

When a new customer registers with you, it is important to collect key information about them to support their bookings. This usually includes their full name, company (Account) name, their Email Address, and a password for them to use when they return to make future bookings.
Beyond the basics, the Checkout Registration Form is designed to be fully customisable, allowing you to gather additional information tailored to your Course needs. Whether you want to know their dietary requirements, gender, or preferred contact methods, the flexibility of the form ensures that you can capture every relevant detail right from the start.
