What workshop admin often looks like today

Sign-up in DM chaos

"Is there still a spot?" — scattered across Instagram, WhatsApp and e-mail. You scroll through threads to work out who firmly committed and who only asked.

PayPal friends-and-family payments

Payments arrive as friends-and-family with no reference. You manually match PayPal credits against DM commitments — and a cancellation turns the refund into detective work.

Gear & level only on the day

Only on the day do you notice: three beginners without manual mode, nobody brought a tripod. With advance info you would have planned content and loan gear differently.

How it works with Questee

  1. 1

    Set up the form with payment

    Workshop date, experience level, camera gear, topic wishes — plus Stripe payment as the final step. The AI drafts it in 30 seconds; you connect your Stripe account with one click.

  2. 2

    Link in bio, story, newsletter

    Interested people click, answer one question per screen and pay directly at the end — card, Apple Pay or whatever you enable in Stripe. Sign-up and payment are one flow, not back-and-forth.

  3. 3

    Participant list with payment status

    You see every sign-up with level, gear and payment in one place. You plan the workshop to fit the group — and no incoming payment needs manual matching any more.

Everything you need for paid workshops

Stripe payment built in

Collect the fee right in the form — payment and sign-up belong together.

Conditional logic

Beginners get different follow-ups than advanced shooters — e.g. whether loan gear is needed.

Gear questionnaire

Camera, lenses, tripod as choice questions — you know before the workshop what the group brings.

Your branding (Pro)

Logo, colours, your look — the sign-up feels like part of your portfolio, not a third-party tool.

E-mail notification

Every sign-up lands in your inbox instantly — no more searching DMs.

GDPR & hosted in Germany

Participant data sits on German servers, DPA included — a selling point for corporate clients too.

Questions from workshop hosts

How exactly does payment work?
You connect your own Stripe account to Questee. The fee becomes a payment step at the end of the form — participants pay by card or whichever methods you enable in Stripe. Money flows directly to your Stripe account; the response overview shows the payment status for every sign-up.
Why not Eventbrite or a ticketing platform?
Ticketing platforms take a fee per ticket sold and mainly capture: name, e-mail, paid. What they cannot do: ask about experience level, gear and topic wishes — exactly the information you plan a good workshop with. Questee combines both in one step, with no per-participant fee (Stripe transaction costs aside).
What is actually the issue with friends-and-family payments?
Friends-and-family is meant for private payments — using it for commercial workshop fees breaches PayPal's terms, and participants get no buyer protection. With Stripe, payment runs cleanly as commercial revenue with a receipt — better for your bookkeeping and more professional towards participants.
Can I offer several workshop dates in one form?
Yes — a choice question lists your dates ("Portrait workshop 14 Sep", "Street photography 28 Sep"), and conditional logic lets you ask different follow-ups per date. When a date fills up, remove it from the options — takes a minute.
What should I ask before a photo workshop?
Proven set: experience level (beginner/hobbyist/ambitious), camera type and lenses, whether manual mode is familiar, topic wishes (light, composition, editing) and an open expectations question. That lets you group people sensibly and plan content that truly fits — instead of improvising on the day.
Is my participants' data secure?
Yes — hosting exclusively in Germany, encrypted transfer, tenant-isolated storage and an Art. 28 GDPR DPA. Neither you nor Questee ever sees card data: payment runs directly through Stripe, a certified payment provider.
Can I collect feedback after the workshop?
Yes — create a second short feedback form (rating, what was missing, testimonial question) and send the link the evening after the workshop. The answers improve your next date — and give you quotes for your workshop page, with participants' consent.
