It’s been a busy month for Wix Events!

First, we talked about the ability to create online events in Wix Events by choosing ‘online’ as the venue. Now we bring you a very exciting new feature: start to finish integration with Zoom .

What does this mean?

  • You can connect an existing Zoom account

  • When you create a new event, a unique Zoom link is automatically generated.

  • You can choose to add it to your guest’s Confirmation Email, their Reminder Email, or both.

  • Guests can join with the link which has been automatically generated and sent via email.

  • You can do this all from your Wix Dashboard!

Great! But how does it work?

Step 1 - Create the Wix Event

Step 2 - Connect Your Zoom Account (or create one, this step only needs to happen once)

Step 3 - Enable Zoom for your event

Step 4 - Start your event

When it’s time to hold your event, access the event in the dashboard and click See Zoom links.

Hi Sheyla, This has been incredibly useful for both ourselves and out clients. Thank you! One sticky point - in the latest Zoom update, people are finding if you take them off unmute then they have to accept this unmute - in the case of children’s entertainers, the parent is having to jump in to accept the unmute for the child (I get the security need but working with online creche’s and kids clubs where the parent is meant to be getting on with work in the background it defeats the purpose). It’s a Zoom more than Wix issue but we’ve certainly one client and two more we were negotiating with who’d be impacted. Perhaps something that others helping businesses pivot need to note.

Hi Esme! Happy to hear that this has been a helpful feature for you!

It’s certainly great feedback, and I highly encourage you to drop it in Zoom’s feedback form .
