Checkout-flow using our Multiple Bookings Mode How it works This integration creates a connection between Events Manager and your Zoom account. When creating events and you select a Zoom Webinar or Meeting as your location type, a new meeting/webinar will be created with the same name/time as your event. Bookings are handled by Events Manager when a booking is made and approved (either automatically or manually), a registration will be made to the related meeting/webinar. Since bookings are handled by Events Manager, you can also make use of all the Pro features such as accepting payments for your event and asking custom questions. You can alternatively link directly to your meetings and disable bookings via Events Manager entirely. Visit our documentation pages for more information on setup.
