If a player isn’t using the Companion app, you can still add them to your event by using their Wizards Account email address. EventLink allows tournament organizers to register players directly by email, ensuring that anyone with a Wizards Account can be included in the event roster. This method is useful for players who have a Wizards account (formerly used for DCI/organizer records or the Companion app) but, for whatever reason, are not joining via the app at that moment. Here’s how to register a player by email:
- Open the “Add Email” Field: On the EventLink registration page for your event (where you see the list of participants), look for an input field or button labeled “Add Email”. Click this field to activate it – it’s where you’ll input the player’s email address.
- Enter the Player’s Wizards Account Email: Type the player’s Wizards Account email address into the Add Email field, then press Enter on your keyboard. EventLink will search for a Wizards account associated with that email. If the email is valid and linked to an existing account, the player will be added to the event’s attendee list immediately.
- Confirm the Registration: Once entered, the player’s name (as registered in their Wizards account) should appear among the event’s players. No further action is needed – the system has registered them for the event. You can proceed with any other player entries or start the event when ready.
Tip: If the player does not yet have a Wizards Account (and thus no email on file), they can create one at the official account site (myaccounts.wizards.com). However, if there isn’t time to set up a new account on the spot, you have the option to use a Guest registration for that player instead.
