Inside the template

What this vendor registration form asks, and why

Two steps for markets, fairs and trade shows. The first collects the company name, the main contact, an email, a phone number and a website, so you can check what each vendor sells before approving them. The second asks which stand size they want, what they'll be showing, whether they need power, and for a public liability insurance upload. Vendors must accept your exhibitor terms before they can submit. Treat every submission as an application: the ending screen says you'll confirm the stand and send an invoice, which keeps you in control of the mix of stalls.

  • The person you will deal with before and on the day.

  • Where approval, invoices and arrival instructions go.

  • Optional, for problems on the day.

  • Lets you check what the vendor sells before approving them.

  • Stand size, the main factor in layout and in what you charge.

  • What they will display or sell, so you can balance the mix and avoid duplicates.

  • Power at the stand, which needs planning before the floor plan is fixed.

  • Public liability insurance, uploaded once instead of chased by email.

  • Required acceptance of the exhibitor terms before an application can be sent.

Best practices

How to get good answers from a vendor registration form

  1. 1

    Approve before you confirm

    Treat each submission as an application. The ending screen says you will confirm the stand, which keeps you in control of the mix.

  2. 2

    Collect insurance at the start

    Chasing insurance certificates a week before the event is painful. Asking on the form gets most of them in up front.

  3. 3

    Publish your terms

    Link to the full exhibitor terms in the consent question so vendors know what they are accepting.

  4. 4

    Balance the line-up

    Read 'What will you be showing?' across all applications before approving, so ten stalls do not sell the same thing.

After you publish

Where the responses go next

  1. Review applications

    Every application lands in the dashboard with its insurance file, ready to approve or decline.

  2. Plan the floor

    The answer breakdown counts stands by size and power needs, the two inputs to the floor plan.

  3. Invoice approved vendors

    FormSnapp does not take payment, so export approved vendors to CSV and invoice the stand fee from your billing tool.

FAQ

Vendor Registration Form: common questions

Still deciding?

Seven steps from an empty account to a published form.

Can vendors upload their insurance?

Yes. The template includes a file upload, up to 5 MB per file on the free plan and 10 MB on paid plans.

Can I take the stand fee through the form?

No. FormSnapp has no payment field, so collect applications here and invoice approved vendors separately.

Can I approve vendors before confirming them?

Yes. The ending screen says you will confirm the stand, so every submission is an application until you reply.

Can vendors save the form and finish later?

Yes. It is a two-step form with a 'Save & continue later' button, useful while they find their insurance certificate.

Can I limit the number of applications?

Set a maximum number of responses, or a closing date, with your own message for late applicants.
