Step 1: Create a an online party digital waiver

Designing Your Form: Your digital waiver is the first point of contact between your business and some of the parents invited to the party. It should be intuitive, easy to navigate, and visually appealing. With Activity Messenger, you can:

• Drag and Drop: Build your form by simply dragging elements into place. No coding required.

• Custom Layouts: Choose from templates or create your own layout that best fits the information you need to collect.

Step 2: Personalizing Participant Details

Customizing Information Fields: Every party is unique, and so is every child. Customize your form to capture the essence of both:

• Parent/Guardian Details: Collect contact information, emergency numbers, and any other pertinent details.
• Child’s Information: Add fields for allergies, medical conditions, or special needs to ensure each child’s safety and comfort.
• Flexibility: Allow for the addition of multiple children if a parent is bringing siblings along to the party.

Step 3: Adding the terms and conditions

Setting Terms and Conditions: This section is crucial as it protects both your business and the children:

• Clear Terms: Write terms that are easy to understand to avoid confusion or disputes.
• Multiple Checkboxes: For different aspects of the waiver, use separate checkboxes. This ensures parents acknowledge each term distinctly.
• Digital Consent: Make the acceptance of terms a mandatory step before the form can be submitted.
• Sealing the Deal: The electronic signature is what makes your digital waiver legally binding. Ensure the signature process is straightforward. Parents should be able to sign on any device.

How to share and distribute your party waiver

Effortless Sharing Options: Getting the waiver to the parents should be as easy as the signing process.

• Multi-Channel Distribution: Whether it’s through SMS, email, or direct links, offer multiple ways for parents to receive and sign the waiver.
• Embedding: Integrate the waiver form directly on your website for easy access the day of the kids birthday party
• QR Codes: Place QR codes at convenient locations. This modern touch can impress parents with your commitment to efficiency and innovation and make the process seamless so they can enjoy the party.

Messaging and Communication

Timely Reminders: Ensure that no digital signature of your required waiver is missed with automated reminders:

• Automated Messaging: Set up automated SMS or email reminders to nudge parents who haven’t signed.
• List Management: Keep track of who has signed and who hasn’t. Send targeted messages to those on the pending list.
• Scheduling: Schedule reminders for a day or two before the party, ensuring all waivers are signed in time.
