How do I charge my attendees for trainings?
Organizers can charge for trainings and provide registrants with the option to use PayPal, a credit card, or an alternative payment method.
Use the payment integration to:
- Set a price for trainings.
- Accept payments in different currencies.
- Allow attendees to pay with a major credit card or PayPal account.
- Allow registrants to bypass online payments for alternate forms of payment outside of GoTo Training (i.e., check or invoice payments).
- Give partial and full refunds when canceling registrations through GoTo Training.
Connect to your PayPal account
Before you begin: Your PayPal account must be confirmed and verified in order to properly link the account to your
GoTo Training account.
Attention: If your PayPal account is already linked, you will need to remove and reconnect your account before June 30, 2024 to start utilizing the updated integration.
Set a price for your training
- From your training dashboard, select an upcoming session or create a new one.
- From the session details page, select Edit next to Registration and Payment Settings.
- From the Payments tab, set your price and then your desired currency using the drop-down menu. You can also select Add Discount Code to add custom discount codes as desired.
- Select Save when you are finished.
What to do next: Once you have sent the registration link out to potential attendees, you can monitor the registration from the
My Trainings section of your dashboard. You will see the number of people who have registered under
Registrants. Select the number to see who has completed their payment and been approved, who has payment pending (for example, if you allowed for cash or checks to be accepted, a user paying with that option would appear here for you to manually mark as paid), or to cancel and refund any attendees as needed.
Note: If you want to refund an attendee but not cancel their registration, you will need to issue that refund directly from your PayPal account.
