Application Gate page: (Volunteer Sign-in)

If your Event/Program requires volunteers to complete an Application before selecting shifts, they will first see the Application Gate page. This Gate page prompts volunteers to enter their first name and email address before accessing the Event/Program sign-up page. 

You can customize the Gate page with your Event/Program name and Logo smart tags, and additional instructions, which will appear at the top of the sign-in form to guide volunteers through the process.

What is the Application Gate Page?

The gate page will check for two things:

• Has the volunteer completed the Application?
• Does the Volunteer have the aligned Status requirement?
