      Another way to invite participants for free is to create guest lists. In this case, you let your participants book by themselves. There are several ways to create a guest list:

      1. Create promotional code: It is possible to create a promotional code (-100%) that you will share with your guests so that they can buy their ticket for free. To create your promo code, please refer to this article
      2. OR Create tickets only visible via a referral link: You can also create tickets that cannot be purchased without a referral link. Refer to this article. Share this link with the people you want to invite!
