Seminars and special events (e.g., guest seminars, workshops, one-off events) are handled slightly differently in MAAT than regular classes or memberships. This guide explains how to set up payments, registrations, and attendance tracking.
1. Payments for Seminars & Events
In MAAT, each student can only have one active membership or one drop-in at a time.
Because of this, seminar and event fees are not managed as memberships or drop-ins.
Instead, we create a Stripe payment link for the event.
To request a payment link for your seminar or special event, please contact us via WhatsApp and we will set it up for you.
2. Event Registration (Class Sign-Ups)
By default, students can only register for classes up to 14 days in advance.
If you are promoting a seminar or event more than 14 days in advance, contact us so we can enable early sign-up for that specific event.
Once enabled, students will be able to reserve their spot in the app as they would for a normal class.
3. Checking Who Has Paid (via Stripe)
To confirm which students have already paid for the seminar or event:
Open your Stripe Dashboard
In the left-hand menu, click Product Catalog
Find the product (it will usually be named after the seminar or special event)
Click on the product price to see the list of students who have paid for the event
4. Matching Payments with Registrations
Students who have paid via Stripe and are registered for the class should be treated as confirmed attendees.
Students who registered but have not paid should first be contacted with a reminder and the payment link.
Often, they are genuinely interested and will complete the payment once reminded.
Only delete them if they ignore or refuse to pay.
