Subscribe to a collection

Visitors can subscribe to a whole collection instead of adding events one by one. Their calendar then shows every event in the collection, and new and changed events appear automatically.

How visitors subscribe

  1. They open the collection page.

  2. They select the add-to-calendar button under the events.

  3. They pick their calendar: Google, Apple, Office 365, Outlook (online) or iCal.

  4. They confirm the subscription in their calendar app.

The button is shown when Show 'Add to calendar' button is on in the collection's settings. It also works before the collection has any upcoming events, so people can sign up early.


​

Ask for name and email first

Switch on Require registration in the collection's settings. Visitors then fill in their name and email address and select Subscribe to calendar to subscribe.


​

Count your subscribers

Someone counts as an active subscriber from the moment they subscribe to the collection. They stay active as long as their calendar keeps syncing the collection. If their calendar has not synced for 7 days, they no longer count.


​

The collection page in your dashboard shows Active subscribers. Each plan has a limit per collection:

  • Free: 10

  • Startup: 100

  • Business: 10,000

One-off events

Calendar apps refresh subscribed calendars on their own schedule. New and changed events usually appear within 12 hours, and at most within 24 hours. In Apple Calendar, subscribers can set how often it refreshes. If changes still do not show up after a day, remove the subscription and subscribe again.


​

You do not need a collection to share a single event. Share the event page link instead; see Share your event.


​

Remove a subscriber

You cannot end someone's subscription yourself, for example when a member leaves your club. If you need that, create a new collection for each period, such as each season, and share it only with current members.
