Collect Abstract Submissions Fees Online

If you charge a processing fee per abstract submission or per accepted abstract submission for your conference, then Dryfta event platform is for you. Using Dryfta, you can create tickets to collect abstract submission fees for all submitted & accepted abstracts.

For abstract submissions, as soon as the fee payment is confirmed, the system would allow author to submit the abstract/s. Admin can select the number of abstracts that can be submitted per ticket and set the dates for abstract submission site to open and close abstract submissions.

For fees paid for accepted abstracts to allow authors to present the paper at the conference, once author has paid the fee through credit card, the system would send the invoice to the author and updates the abstract submission with the Paid status automatically. This makes sure admin knows if the accepted abstract has been paid for or not.

Create your Event registration & Abstract submission forms using Visual Form Builder

As promised, the upgraded Form builder is now live and accessible from your dashboard. Creating custom fields for your forms including event registration and abstract submission forms, is now easier than ever.

visual-form-builder

The text buttons are replaced with visual icons and text buttons to allow more easier understanding of what it (button) does. The absence of too many texts also created more whitespace making it more easier and calmer for event admins to create custom fields!

We also felt the field editor popup was creating a sense of alienation and was not as seamless as we envisioned. So, instead of opening the field editor in a popup, it now opens in the same window.

Let us know what you think of this upgrade and if it helps in any which way in creating your custom forms.
