Managing your players is an essential component for a successful event. Here's how to:
Pre-loading players
This option is useful when you want to make sure you have a limited list of players that can join and play the game.
The first step is to gather their information and fill out this Player Upload template.
Once that's done, head to app.socialpoint.io, login, and do the following:
Click on Participation Game
Click on Players and then click on the Choose File button
Select your Player Upload file and then click on Upload Players
Hot Tip: players must have a 6-digit PIN and it should be unique to each player.
Once it finishes uploading, your players will be listed on this page. Make sure you don't go over the Player Limit for your event.
When logging in to the game, your players should enter their email or phone number and ask the platform to send them their PIN.
Once they have their PIN, they can access the game.
