Once an attendee purchases a ticket for your event, they will automatically receive an order confirmation email. If the attendee purchases the ticket 60 minutes before the event or during the event, they will also receive a magic link email.
The order confirmation email looks something like this:
In that email, there is a button that says "Visit the Event Site" if the email is sent before the event. If the email is sent during the event, that button will say "Join the Event".
When this button is clicked, it will redirect the attendee to your event landing page, since upon registration they set up their password and this automatically sets up their account and logs them in. However, if they click it a second time and they've not logged in at all, then they will be asked to log in once they click the Enter Event button on that page.
Aside from the Order Confirmation Email, attendees will get a second email if they register 1 hour before the event or during the event. This is the email that contains the Magic Link that will allow attendees to access the main event page without logging in. Click here to learn more about Magic Link.
