Do you already know your registrant's company, job title, or other information? With Hidden Order Form Fields, you can feed this right into your order form so registrants can skip filling out this information.
You can mark a field as hidden, and the information you input will be captured in the registrants' order.
Hidden Order Form Fields
A hidden field lets event admins include data that cannot be seen or modified by registrants when the order form is submitted. Event admins can see this data through the edit button in the order and when the Registration Data Report is downloaded.
