Overview of PlanetReg
Planetreg is a web based tool that you can use to register people for your events using the internet.
You have complete control over how your event will be presented to potential attendees. Some types of events where you could use PlanetReg:
You can collect attendee fees using Paypal, which accepts credit cards or Paypal accounts. You also have the option of having your attendees send you a check or pay you at your event.
To use Paypal for payment, you must have a Paypal account. To accept credit cards, you need a Premier or Business Paypal account. See: Paypal for details on how to set up an account or how to upgrade your personal account to a Business account.
If you have your own credit card merchant account, we can handle that too. You must obtain an internet credit card processor to use this feature. There are several available and we can give you a recommendation for processors that we have used in the past. Even with your own credit card processor, we would recommend that you also use Paypal as a convenience to your clients/ users.

Payment Data Systems
Note that the default payment method in PlanetReg is Paypal. If you wish to use any of the above options, you must let us know and we will condition your events to point to one of those options. Each of the above options (other than Paypal) requires that we adjust your account accordingly. If you are using a processor that is not shown above, please contact us and if it has internet gateway we can usually integrate it with our system.
We are always adding new ones, so please check with us for the latest list.
PlanetReg is designed to support multiple currencies. If you use Paypal, these currencies are supported:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/sell/mc/mc_receive-outside
If you do not see your currency in that list, let us know. We can usually accommodate any currency.
A significant percentage of our clients reside outside the United States. We have many Canadian, Australian, European and New Zealand users. Most of the field names and other descriptive data can be edited and presented in a language other than English.
If you operate your events in the European Union or have European Union registrants you should know about the latest EU privacy rules – the GDPR http://www.planetreg.com/pr/whatisgdpr.pdf. Very important if you or your registrants are subject to these new rules
PlanetReg is a product of HEMKO Systems Corporation. HEMKO has over 40 years of development experience in the meeting industry. We have been doing internet registration systems since 1996 and have registered millions of people through our software.
As part of the PlanetReg help system you will frequently see YouTube video screens.
The YouTube video presentation will illustrate a feature of PlanetReg.
In some cases you will not be able to see the videos in full screen - if you prefer full screen, click YouTube icon and ask to view the video in YouTube. That will provide the option to view in a separate window and in full screen mode. These issues are relevant only to viewing on your computer monitor.
Another option to make the video larger is to hold the Ctrl key and use your mouse wheel to enlarge or decrease the video size.
When viewing on a phone or tablet, the video will be adjusted to allow for smaller screen sizes.
