Event Emails Overview

Last updated: February 25, 2026

WeGive sends several types of automated emails related to events. Each is configured separately on the event.

Email Types

Email

Trigger

Must Configure

Registration Confirmation

Status Update Notification

Yes

Ticket Copy

Yes

Invitation

None of these emails send by default. Each must be enabled and configured on the event before it goes live.

Where to Configure Event Emails

  1. Open the event and go to the Emails tab

  2. Click the email type you want to configure

  3. Enable it and customize the content

  4. Save

Things to Watch For

  • Emails are event-specific. There are no global event email templates that apply across all events automatically.

  • Disabling an email type mid-event stops future sends but does not affect emails already sent.
