2. Configuring localization and billing settings
A Lesson by Benjamin Dell (Founder & CEO, HeySummit)
In this video, we’ll look at how to configure localization, billing, and legal settings for your HeySummit event. We’ll cover time zone and language settings, billing currency and tax options, and legal compliance features such as cookie consent and custom terms of service. These settings ensure your event is correctly configured for your audience and business needs.
Key Takeaways
- Localization settings allow you to adjust time zones, date formats, and languages to match your audience.
- Billing settings let you choose a currency, require billing addresses, and determine how sales tax is displayed on invoices.
- Free events can still generate invoices, so you may want to add company details even if you’re not charging for tickets.
- Legal & GDPR settings include a cookie consent popup and the option to customize terms of service and privacy policies.
- Most settings can be left as default unless you have specific legal, tax, or audience requirements.
