Registration software should do more than collect information after someone decides to sign up. It should help you capture interest earlier, recover registrations that almost happened, create new revenue opportunities, and keep attendee changes easy to follow.
That’s the focus behind the latest RegFox updates.
Subscriber Popups give you a new way to capture interested visitors before they leave your registration page. Automatic Winback Emails help bring abandoned registrations back. Membership Gifting creates another path to grow membership revenue. And improved Registration Transfer Tracking makes attendee changes much easier to follow.
We’ve also made improvements to checkout, mobile previews, Purchase Protection, and attendee check-in.
Here’s what’s new and how you can put each update to work.
Turn Registration Page Traffic Into Future Registrants
Not everyone who lands on your registration page is ready to register immediately.
Maybe they’re comparing dates. Maybe they’re waiting for approval. Maybe they’re interested but not quite ready to commit.
Until now, that traffic could easily disappear without giving your team another opportunity to follow up.
Subscriber Popups Capture Interest Before Visitors Leave
New Subscriber Popups let you collect an interested visitor’s email address and phone number directly from your RegFox registration page.
Once someone subscribes, RegFox can automatically add them to your CRM so your team can continue the conversation.
Subscriber Popups can be used to:
• Capture email addresses and phone numbers from interested page visitors
• Grow your contact list from existing registration-page traffic
• Deliver discount codes, early-bird offers, or other promotions by email or text
• Trigger Dynamic Emails to continue nurturing potential registrants
For example, someone might visit your conference registration page months before the event but decide they are not ready to purchase yet. Instead of hoping they remember to come back, you can offer an early-bird discount in exchange for their contact information and follow up automatically.
That turns your registration page into more than a checkout page. It gives you another opportunity to build an audience before someone is ready to buy.
Recover More Abandoned Registrations Automatically
Getting someone to your registration page is only half the battle.
People get distracted. They open another tab. They realize they need a credit card. They start registering on their phone and tell themselves they’ll finish later.
Some of those people were genuinely interested. They just never made it across the finish line.
Winback Emails Are Now Enabled Automatically
RegFox Winback Emails follow up with people who begin registration but do not complete it.
And now, newly published RegFox registration pages automatically create and activate a Winback Email.
No extra setup is required to start recovering abandoned registrations.
According to current RegFox results, 24% of people who receive a Winback Email go on to complete their registration.
That means a registration that otherwise could have disappeared may still turn into revenue without your team manually tracking down the person who abandoned the form.
Automatic Winback Emails can:
• Re-engage people who started but did not finish registering
• Send a direct link back to the registration
• Continue following up automatically until the event date
• Be customized to match your event and brand
• Be turned off if your team does not want to use them
The automatic setup is meant to remove one more item from your launch checklist.
You can still personalize the email, and we recommend you do. But the recovery workflow is already there when your page goes live.
Turn Memberships Into Gifts
Membership programs are usually designed around one person purchasing access for themselves.
But around the holidays, birthdays, employee recognition, or other special occasions, there is another opportunity: letting someone purchase that membership for somebody else.
Membership Gifting Opens a New Revenue Path
RegFox Memberships now support Gift Memberships, giving organizations a way to make memberships giftable directly during checkout.
A purchaser can select that the membership is a gift and enter the recipient’s information separately.
Gift Memberships let you:
• Add a “This is a gift” option during checkout
• Collect the recipient’s name and email separately from the purchaser
• Send membership information directly to the recipient
• Keep the purchaser’s payment information private
• Automatically remind gift recipients before their membership expires
Gifted memberships do not automatically renew, so RegFox sends a reminder 20 days before expiration.
For professional associations, nonprofits, educational organizations, and membership-based communities, this creates another way to introduce new people to your organization.
And the timing is particularly useful heading into the holiday season.
A one-time gift can become someone’s first interaction with your organization, and ideally, the beginning of a much longer relationship.
See Exactly Where Registration Transfers Went
Registration transfers are one of those workflows that seems simple until someone asks:
“Wait, who has this registration now?”
When an attendee can no longer participate and transfers their spot to somebody else, staff still need to understand exactly what changed.
That gets especially important for sold-out events, conferences with last-minute substitutions, and teams managing a lot of attendee records.
Registration Transfer Tracking Adds More Visibility
RegFox now shows transfer information directly on the original registrant’s record.
When a registration is transferred, your team can:
• See a clear Transferred status on the original record
• Identify who received the registration
• See when the transfer happened
• Click directly into the new registrant’s record
Instead of piecing together the history manually, staff can follow the transfer from the original attendee to the new one.
It’s a relatively small update that can save a surprising amount of detective work when an attendee emails your team five minutes before check-in.
More RegFox Improvements You’ll Notice
The four updates above are the biggest additions, but we’ve also made several improvements across the registration experience.
Enhanced Checkout Design and Security
RegFox checkout now includes clearer security and encryption messaging, additional trust indicators, and conversion-focused updates designed to help registrants feel more confident when completing a purchase.
When someone is entering personal and payment information, those small trust signals matter.
Mobile Preview in the Builder
You can now preview your registration page on mobile directly from the RegFox Builder.
Finally. 🎉
Instead of publishing a page and grabbing your phone to see what happened, you can check the mobile experience while you’re still building.
A More Compact Purchase Protection Experience
We’ve also refreshed the Purchase Protection section at checkout.
The new layout takes up less space and makes it easier for registrants to review their options without the section overwhelming the rest of checkout.
