Frequently Asked Questions
Can I create just one test event and reschedule for another day for testing after using it with my admins/moderators/speakers?
Yes, you can reschedule the event as long as the end time has not arrived yet.
Can I have more than 25 people at the same time on my test event?
No, test events on the Free plan will lock the event to 25 people. We suggest grouping your speakers together and having separate test events for each group.
Does having a test event use up my event credits?
No, even if the event is under the same organizer, it does not count towards your billable and usable event credits.
