Communication
Change the Registration Confirmation Message
This message will be displayed when a user completes their registration for your event. All registrants will see the same confirmation message. The designated area below supports a custom Registration Confirmation message. Additionally, if an attendee attempts to register with details that are already registered, a duplicate warning message will be displayed. This message can also be customised in the same way as the confirmation message.
Example:
Note: There are no dynamic variables available. The example includes {{Your Event Name}}, which is expected to be replaced with your actual event name before saving it into Jomablue.
Add to iCal/Calendar Links
With numerous email platforms available, creating a generic “Add to Calendar” button has become increasingly complex. People may access their calendar via various platforms, including Outlook Web App, Outlook Desktop, Outlook Mobile, Gmail via Outlook, Gmail via Chrome, etc.
While Jomablue supports a simple link to a hosted iCal (.ics) file, we recommend using the following service and their Direct URL Method:
AddEvent Website:
https://www.addevent.com/
Direct URL Method:
https://www.addevent.com/api/direct-url-method,
Alternatively, you can include an HTML link to an .ics file in the Registration Confirmation Message. However, keep in mind that not all client devices support this, and the .ics file is not editable once added to a user’s calendar.
Registration Confirmation Emails
When using Jomablue Online Registration, a Registration Confirmation Email is automatically sent out to Registrants upon successful registration. These emails can take two forms:
- Default Registration Confirmation Email
- General Campaign triggered upon the registration of a Product
Default Registration Confirmation Email
The Default Registration Confirmation Email is sent automatically to Registrants after they complete their Registration. This email is not configurable and includes the following fields as provided during the registration process:
- Name
- Occupation
- Company/Organisation
- Mobile
- Order
- Product
Notes:
- The Occupation, Company/Organisation, and Mobile fields will not appear if they are empty (for example, if they were not set as required fields in the registration form)
- The Default Registration Confirmation Email contains a unique Support Request link that directs the user to a Support Request page, where they can submit inquiries. These requests will be recorded in Jomablue under Support Requests
Disable the Default Registration Confirmation Email
When a new event is created, the default Registration Confirmation Email is automatically enabled. Although this email cannot be configured, it can be disabled for the entire Event.
Follow these steps to disable it:
- Log into Jomablue
- Select the desired Event
- Navigate to Event Configuration > Settings
- Under the Email and SMS section, set the Send default confirmation email toggle to No
Create a Custom Registration Confirmation Email
To send custom Registration Confirmation Emails, you can use Triggered Campaigns.
To create them:
- Ensure the default Registration Confirmation Email is disabled so your attendees don't receive two different emails
- Create one or more Email Template/s to be sent out as Registration Confirmation Email(s). Note that these must be the Event General type of Template. For additional information, see the article: Email Templates.
Share Terms and Conditions on a Registration Site
While preparing your registration Terms and Conditions, it’s advisable to inform your attendees about how they can manage their personal data when using Jomablue Community.
There are two main components to Event Registration Terms and Conditions:
- Registration Terms Text
- Externally linked Terms and Conditions and/or Privacy Policy
Registration Terms Text
This is the text that attendees must accept in order to complete their registration. The Registration Terms Text appears during the confirmation stage of the Registration process, and users are required to check the "I Accept" box to submit their registration. Typically, this text will refer to the external Terms and Conditions, which are linked in the footer of the page.
See the image below for a view of the confirmation stage, with the Registration Terms Text highlighted:
External Terms and Conditions
The second component is the externally linked Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy, and any other documents that attendees need to accept to register.
Note: These Terms and Conditions must be hosted externally (on your website or another third-party hosting service) and cannot be hosted on Jomablue.
See below for another view of the confirmation stage, indicating the location of the External Terms and Conditions:
Terms and Conditions of Paid Registration
When using Jomablue for Paid Registration, 2 sets of terms and conditions require acceptance:
- Site Terms and Conditions: This includes acceptance of Sale terms, cancellation policies, and other financial details related to the order.
- Event Registration Terms and Conditions: These refer to the acceptance of specific conditions related to the event registration. We highly recommend disclosing the use of Smart Badges, and what data is stored on them.
What do you need to provide?
For Sites:
Each Site can have unique terms and acceptance text if desired
- Link to Terms and Conditions
- Acceptance text (150 character limit)
For Event Registration:
Event Registration Terms and Conditions are set on a per-event basis. Regardless of the customer category or site from which a Person purchases, they will see the same Registration terms.
- Link to Terms and Conditions

Notes:
- The acceptance checkbox is always unchecked; a user must check it before proceeding
- The checkbox has static text of "I accept" and can be changed under the new Localisation Label Set feature
- Clicking on the terms and conditions link will open it in a new tab or window
Examples of Event Registration Terms
It is essential to inform people about how their personal information is used at the event. Below is a sample statement regarding the Jomablue Smart Badge. Please seek legal approval from your company before using it.
You will be provided with a Smart Badge (“Badge”) to use during the Event. Wearing the Badge is a requirement onsite to identify you as an authorised attendee. The Badge contains no personal information other than what is printed on it. It includes technology that allows you to use it as a digital business card and electronic key. The organiser may require you to use it for access to Sessions and Event areas.
Exhibitors, Sponsors, the event organiser and other authorised companies at the event may provide ways for you to share your details. You do so at your own risk, and the organiser makes no representations or warranties regarding how these third parties may retain, use, or disseminate your information. If your Badge is lost or misplaced, please notify the information counter to deactivate it. After the Event, you can safely dispose of your Badge as it will no longer function.
