### ✅ 1. Requirements for Direct Registration

To allow guests to register directly online for an experience, two key conditions must be met:

#### a) Add event dates

Your experience needs at least one **future event date**. You can either:

- Manually enter individual dates
- Or define a **recurrence rule** (e.g. every Monday at 10:00 AM)

👉 Learn more: [Add Events & Dates to Experiences](https://support.giggle.tips/en/help-center/experience-events?hsLang=en)

#### b) Mark the experience as bookable

In order for guests to sign up, the experience must be **activated as bookable** in the CMS under Step 3.  
More on that below.

---

### ⚙️ 2. Activate & Configure Direct Booking

To activate the direct registration:

1. Open the desired experience in the Giggle CMS
2. Scroll to **Step 3: Is the experience bookable?**
3. Toggle the switch to **Yes**
4. Enter:
   
     - At least **one email address** to receive bookings
     - At least **one ticket** with a name

👉 More info: [Why tickets are needed – and how to create multiple ticket options](https://support.giggle.tips/en/help-center/tickets?hsLang=en)

---

### ⚙️ 3. Enable & Adjust Optional Settings

#### ⏰ Registration Deadline

Set how far in advance guests must register – e.g. **24 hours before the event**.  
💡 This ensures planning security for you and your team.

You’ll find this setting directly below the recipient field.

---

Open the “Optional Settings” section below the ticket area to access additional configuration options such as:

#### 👥 Minimum & Maximum Participants

- Set a **minimum number** required for the event to take place
- Define a **maximum number of participants** or available tickets

📌 Pro tip: You can also automate confirmation or cancellation depending on the minimum number.  
👉 Learn more: [Capacity & Participant Management](https://support.giggle.tips/en/help-center/minimum-maximum-participants?hsLang=en)

#### 🚪 Booking Window (Registration Possible From)

Want guests to book **only from a certain date** onward (e.g. 7 days before the event)?  
Enable a **booking window** to avoid too-early registrations.

#### 📩 Signup List for External Receiver

Enter email addresses (e.g. from guides, spa, or reception) to automatically receive the participant list **once the registration deadline is reached**.

📌 Pro tip: Also include your own email for double confirmation.

👉 Learn more: [Automatically Send & Export Participant Lists](https://support.giggle.tips/en/help-center/participant-lists?hsLang=en)

### 💾 4. Save & Publish the Experience

Once all settings are in place:

➡️ Click **“Save”** at the top right of the page.

Your experience is now bookable – complete with fixed dates, registration limits, and automated communication.

---

✔️ clearly scheduled  
✔️ directly bookable online  
✔️ automatically managed via Giggle

Perfect for:
