Group registration process
Please read the new group registration process carefully
How to buy e-Vouchers for a group:
1 - You need to have an ECCO Account. You can create a new account, or retrieve the log in details of your current account directly through the ECCO Portal.
2- You need to know how many ECCO Members 2021 you would like to have in your group so you can benefit from the reduced member fees. Feel free to check with the This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. whether your delegates are ECCO Members or not before proceeding with your group registration.
3- You need to make sure to enter the correct invoice details during the registration process and indicate the correct VAT No. or Tax ID. If you require any changes to the invoice after it has already been issued, it will result in an administrative fee of 5% of the total invoice amount.
4- Group coordinators can buy e-Vouchers for members/non-members/exhibitors (1 to 250 within one registration / no upload of certificates required / selection of 3 fee alternatives).
5- A group confirmation and its corresponding invoice(s) are sent to the group coordinator after the group registration is complete. Your invoice(s) will also be available under the respective registration on the ECCO Portal. If a registration deadline has passed before we receive your payment, the next applicable registration fee shall automatically apply and a new invoice will be issued.
6- You need to provide the e-voucher codes to your delegates and invite them to activate their e-Voucher in the ECCO Portal by clicking on “Congress Registration” and “Activate e-Voucher”. Your delegates will appear on your final registration list. You will be able to download your registration overview in excel format.
Voucher codes are unique and will reflect the registration fee purchased. For instance, a non-member cannot use a member’s voucher code. A non-member voucher can be used for a member.
7- Each delegate needs their own ECCO Account so they can activate their e-Voucher under the registration button and to then access the congress virtual platform in due course. Once a delegate activates their e-Voucher code, a registration confirmation is sent directly to this delegate.
8- Any Educational Courses on behalf of your delegates can be added to your registration directly under the respective delegate (who needs to be an ECCO Member) and needs to already have activated their e-voucher. Button: Add Educational Courses.
9- Track/edit your group registration in the ECCO Portal. Group coordinators can download an excel file of their group registration overview showing all the e-Vouchers codes. Group coordinators need to make sure that all their delegates have activated their e-Vouchers by June 16, 2021 and that the registrations are fully paid. The full name of a delegate will show in the registration, once they activate their e-Voucher.
10- A cancelled registration can be allocated to another delegate at the same registration fee, free of charge until June 9, 2021 (name change). Button: Remove & Change e-Voucher, afterwards the e-Voucher code can be sent to another delegate.
11- Any incomplete e-Voucher after this date will be cancelled with no refunds. Agency/Sponsor contact details and email addresses as registration data for delegates cannot be accepted.
