Even though the meeting registration process is complex, members expect full flexibility and functionality at the click of a mouse, with registration handled quickly and in a user-friendly way. The ARC Polaris™ Meeting Registration Module gives you the power to simply manage all event registration functions — and the power to keep your members happy.
With Polaris, your members will be able to check your association’s event schedule online well in advance, and then to choose different registration timetables. The only thing missing? Confusion and hassles on your end. You’ll be able to target registrants, handle early-bird and later registrants at different rates, and manage both ticketed and non-ticketed registrations — simply and efficiently.
Imagine the increase in early registrations, as members take advantage of Polaris’ powerful simplicity. Even members in foreign cities will be able to jump online and register for the events near them. Best of all, you and your members will be able to manage the entire process online.
Your members want to find out about events well in advance, register when they want, and get discounts for registering early. Polaris handles these different demands with power and simplicity. It can simultaneously track multiple registration deadlines and their associated pricing levels, serving early birds, latecomers, onsite registrants, and those in between.
Your members don’t want to deal with junk mail. They want to be able to register online, on demand, and paper-free. Polaris permits simple, secure online registration via your association’s website.
Some associations and members prefer virtual tickets to online registration. Because Polaris is a true on-demand system, you’ll be able to handle all kinds of registration and ticketing methods.
Ever go online to register for or purchase something and have to re-type your address six times? We hate that, too. That’s why we designed the Meeting Registration module to mesh seamlessly with other Polaris modules to save member information and let you bring it up when needed. The end result: Members who sign in and who want to register for event will not have to go through the annoying step of re-entering their address or other information that they have already submitted.
Your events may have different fees for various classes of registrants, such as members, non-members and delegates. Polaris’ true on-demand technology allows you to set these rates, change them for each event, and enforce them automatically.
The Polaris modules work together to accommodate the full range of registrant payments, including credit cards, electronic checks, and payment by invoice, with appropriate controls for each. For example, restricted checking lets your association specify the timeframes in which registration checks must be sent.
