The event host can send you a Magic Link invitation so you can register for the event without purchasing a ticket. This option is commonly used for inviting speakers, moderators, exhibitors, or internal team members. This guide explains how Magic Links work and how to accept or decline the Magic Link invite.
How Magic Links work
The Magic Link acts as a "registration pass". Clicking on it automatically registers you for a specific event. If you do not have an existing RingCentral Events user account yet, it also creates an account for you.
Note: You will also have an option to decline the Magic Link invite not to register for the event.
The Magic Link also acts as an "access pass" to the event. It bypasses the need for the registered users to sign in to RingCentral Events and brings you directly into your RingCentral Events account and into the event. It also bypassed SSO authentication if configured for the event.
Note: When accessing the event via Magic Link, your Profile Dashboard won't be available. If you need to change your email address or password, delete your user account, or access other events you have registered to, you will need to sign in with an email and password at https://events.ringcentral.com/sign_in.
No two magic links are the same. Each is unique for every attendee at every event.
Note: Anyone with the link could impersonate its owner inside the event it is sent from. Don't share your personalized Magic Link with anyone else.
Accepting a Magic Link invitation
If you have an existing RingCentral Events user account, you will receive an email prompting you to Login & Join Event. If you do not already have a user account, you will receive an email to Verify Registration to proceed. When accepting the invite, you will additionally receive the Order Confirmation email. All emails will contain your personalized Magic Link allowing you to register and access the event.
Here is how the default Magic Link Invite emails look like (if not customized by the Organizer):
If you don't have a user account, you will be also prompted to agree to the platform terms and conditions first. Click Continue to have an account created for you and accept the invite. Alternatively, click Decline invitation and remove my data from RingCentral.
Declining a Magic Link invitation
To decline a Magic Link invite and stop receiving further event-related emails:
- Click the unsubscribe link in the email footer.
-
On the Unsubscribe page, click Decline invitation.
✔ Your invite will be marked as declined for the event host and you will be unsubscribed from further event emails.

Note: Magic Link invites are very flexible to satisfy different user needs and scenarios. You can always change your mind to accept or decline the invite.
