Organisers can now charge a submission fee on the public “Submit a talk” form.
When paid submissions are enabled in Event Settings, speakers submit their talk and speaker details, pay through the event’s connected payment provider, and only then appear in the Talk Submissions list for review.
You can approve or reject paid submissions from the dashboard as usual. If a paid submission is rejected or refunded, HeySummit uses the same refund flow as attendee purchases.
