Steps to Add Checkout Fields

1. Navigate to the EventPrime menu, select the Settings submenu, go to the Checkout Fields tab, and click the Add New Field button.

Once checkout fields are configured, users will be required to fill them out during checkout. Attendee fields will appear for each attendee being registered, while booking fields will appear once per booking. This ensures Organizers can gather detailed attendee information and additional booking data effectively.
