Webinars (Catalog)

In this article

Webinars are virtual products that fall under the Videos parent category. It allows users to purchase a video product with different expiry options such as 30 days or 90 days and in the users' account, they can access the video using the Link Source/URL set in one of the product's information fields. You can also use the Catalog to add regular products such as t-shirts and hats, or virtual products such as sponsorship packages to be sold on your website. You can watch our training video on this section here.
