If you're looking to have your participants sign a waiver or agree to certain terms and conditions, consider using a free ticketing platform like Eventbrite. In this setup, your participants will go through Eventbrite's ticketing process to agree to terms and to provide their information. This way, you'll have confirmation of participation, the information they're using in the challenge, and their acknowledgment of your terms and conditions. Here's how to do that:

Part 1 - Setting your Challenge

First, you should set your private challenge. This is important because how large your challenge is, will determine how many tickets you'll need to create and what kind of information you'll be adding to the event details. Just in case you need it, here are a few links to help:

After setting your private challenge, you might want to create a custom join code. If so, please follow these instructions: How To Create Custom Challenges Codes

Once you have the following two things set:

  1. Your challenge is completely set up and ready to go

  2. Your challenge code is ready at hand

Then you're ready to move over to Eventbrite.

Part 2 - Create Your Free Eventbrite Event

You'll need to either create an Eventbrite account or sign in to an existing account. Please follow their website instructions to do this. Once you've created an account, please follow these steps:

A. BASIC INFO

  1. Click on Create Event

  2. Fill in your basic event info.

    1. Fill in your event name and your organization name.

    2. Then select:

      1. Type - Meeting or Networking Event

      2. Category - Charity & Causes

      3. Sub-Category - Environment

    3. Ignore the tags section since you'll be keeping your event private.

    4. For Location - Select "Venue" and add your organization headquarters or a central location that your challenge is set to. Do not use Reserved Seating

    5. Date and Time - Set the event dates according to your Litterati challenge and set the time to midnight (12:00 AM).

    6. Click Save & Continue.

B. DETAILS

  1. Add your Main Event Image following the instructions on this next page.

  3. Click Save & Continue.

C. TICKETS

  2. You can change the name of the ticket or leave it as "General Admission"

  3. For Available Quantity, select the same amount as your participant goal from your challenge from Step 1.

  4. For "When are tickets available?" select the best dates so that you're able to give your participants enough time to sign up.

    1. NOTE: By default, the last ticket sales date is before the event starts, however as you might have people who might be late joiners, set your sales end date to midway or just before your challenge ends.

  5. Ignore the Advanced Settings

  6. Click Save

D. ORDER OPTIONS

To set waivers/terms & conditions, you'll need to set Order Options.

On the left menu bar, select Order Options and click Order Form. On the next page, it'll say it can't find one, instead, click on the "Create new form from scratch" link at the bottom of the middle section.

Collect Information From:

On this next page, you'll set your custom form.

  1. Select "Each Attendee"

E. ORDER FORM SETTINGS

This is where you'll direct your participants to Download Litterati, Claim their account, and use your customized Join Code for your challenge.

  2. Then click Save.
