Frequently Asked
Questions

Do guests need to download an app to check in or bid?

No. Every guest gets a personal Magic Link: a no-login mobile page for bidding, raffle, fund-a-need, and self-checkout. QR check-in codes arrive in guest emails, and staff can text the link instantly by entering a phone number at check-in.

Can BetterUnite run galas, golf tournaments, and walkathons?

Yes. Relabel tables and teams to Foursomes or Classrooms, collect per-player fields like club rental, add peer-to-peer team pages and leaderboards, and schedule multi-day events with session capacity limits.

Can we clone last year's event?

Yes. Copy Event duplicates an entire setup, and auction item templates carry catalogs between events. The built-in Planner ships task templates with hundreds of typical event to-dos.

How do we know the event is ready to launch?

The Event Readiness Check runs an automated pre-flight audit across tickets, images, giving levels, auction items, and communications, with pass/warn flags and jump-links to fix each issue.

How do we clear payments at the end of the night?

Guest carts combine auction wins, raffle, and donations into one checkout; merge carts for couples, then bulk-checkout the room with item and amount filters.

What reporting do we get?

Real-time Live Totals and Event Insights during the event, plus 50+ downloadable reports covering purchases, guests, auctions, and drawings afterward.
