Orgo Events is the event management module within Orgo that lets organizations create and publish events, sell tickets or take free RSVPs, and track attendance from within their member database. Built for membership organizations running events for members and the public, including professional associations, youth organizations, alumni networks, and faith communities, and similar member-based groups. Replaces Eventbrite for ticketing and RSVP management tied to your member database, not for public event marketplace discovery. Events are often the core of what your organization does — meetups, trainings, conferences, assemblies, volunteer activities. Orgo checks people in at the door and generates reports that prove your impact.

​
What you can do

Create Events

Build events with dates, locations, hero images, speakers, and custom registration fields.

Sell Tickets & Addons

Multiple ticket tiers with max seats, optional addons (lunch, workshops, parking) with their own capacity limits, early bird pricing, and Stripe checkout.

Public Event Pages

Every event gets a shareable URL — branded, mobile-friendly, embeddable on your website.

QR Code Check-in

Every ticket gets a unique QR code. Scan at the door to check people in instantly — see their name, ticket type, payment status, and addons.

​
The event lifecycle

Every event follows the same flow, whether it’s a 10-person committee meeting or a 500-person conference:
1

Create

Fill in details: title, dates, location (or online link), description, hero image. Choose which group is hosting it.
2

Configure registration

Set up tickets (free or paid), capacity limits, registration fields, and deadlines. Or skip this for info-only events.
3

Publish

Move from draft to live. The event appears in calendars, members get notified, and the public page becomes shareable.
4

Manage registrations

Track who signed up, send reminders, process waitlists, invite specific members, handle cancellations.
5

Check in attendees

On event day: scan QR codes with the mobile app, or check people in manually from the participant list.

​
Managing your event

Once you create an event, it gets its own management area with a sidebar navigation. Each section handles a different aspect of the event: Event detail page showing sidebar navigation (View event, Participants, Messages, Landing page, Share, Modify, Delete) with hero image, date, location, RSVP status, and 38 attendees
The sidebar adapts based on your event settings. Tickets and Payments only appear when ticketing is enabled. Speakers only appears when speakers are enabled in the event edit form. Landing page appears for public events.

​
Setting up the Events module

Settings → Events Events module settings showing event configuration, ticketing and payments, and reporting sections Before creating your first event, configure these module settings:

​
Event types

Before creating events, set up Event Types to categorize them. This makes filtering and reporting much more useful.
To sell paid tickets, you must first configure Stripe in Settings → Payments → Online Payments. Without this, you can only create free events.

​
Where events live

Events belong to groups. When you create an event, you choose which group hosts it: This means a member’s event calendar shows events from all their groups: national events from the Main Group, local events from their center, and team events from their Private Groups.

​
Common setups by organization type

​
Youth scouting organization

​
Professional association

​
Community group

Common scenarios

First, set up Stripe if you haven’t already. Then create an event, enable ticketing, create ticket types with prices (early bird, regular, VIP, member discount), set capacity, and publish. Each registrant pays via Stripe checkout and receives a QR code ticket by email.
Create an event, enable “Attendable” but don’t enable ticketing. Members can RSVP directly. Set a capacity limit if the venue has one. This works well for meetups, workshops, and internal meetings.
Make the event public. It gets a shareable URL you can post on social media, embed on your website, or include in email campaigns. Non-members can view the page and register without an Orgo account.
Use Propagate to Local Centers (enable in module settings). Create the event once in the Main Group, then propagate it — a copy is created in each Local Center. Local admins can then adjust their copy (time, venue) for their area.
Enable attendance reminders so hosts remember to check people in. After the event, mark no-shows. Over time, this data helps you: (1) set realistic capacity (aim for 70-80% of registrations), (2) send reminder emails before the event, (3) use waitlists so spots don’t go to waste.
