The Staff Portal

This portal allows admin and staff to make transactions on behalf of the participant. One great feature is that it allows you to enter cash transactions or any transactions outside of Accelevents.

Note: The Event Setup button allows you to go back to the admin console if you have event admin access.

Accessing the Staff Portal

The staff portal can be accessed in 2 ways:

  • Log in from the event page and click the Event Staff button at the top.

  • Click your profile from the event page or admin console, then select Event Staff from the dropdown.
