FAQ

How do I apply a promo code for my tickets?

If you have a promo code, there will be an option for you to put it in on the very last page before checkout. You must hit the button that says "Apply Promotion," which will complete your reservation if you have a free code. Please DO NOT put in your credit card information.

Can I register other people?

Yes, you can register up to 10 NMLS licensed originators. Please input every registrant's individual information, as we use this information to create the name badges and check in at registration on the day of the event.

Can I visit the exhibit hall if I am not registered?

Unfortunately, no. You must register to have access to any part of the show at any point.

Can I attend even if I don't have an NMLS number?

The show is primarily designed for NMLS licensees. Processors and underwriters may use their company NMLS number. Others without an NMLS number (or non-active NMLS licensees) may attend, but have to register as a paid non-exhibiting vendor. If you don't have an NMLS number but you don't think you are a vendor, please reach out to us. Show producers have the right to determine final eligibility.

I am a sponsor or exhibitor, where can I find the toolkit and exhibiting information?

The exhibitor information is sent to the email provided during the registration or purchase of a booth or sponsorship. Please check this email for information about access to our exhibitor toolkit. If you need this information resent, please email info@ambizmedia.com for assistance.

I registered for the show but not the continuing education class, can I still take it?

Unfortunately, we cannot add or modify an existing registration. Class space is limited and you must pre-register to allow us to get an accurate head count. We are often able to accommodate requests made on the day of the show because some registrants will cancel or otherwise not participate. But only pre-registered attendees are guaranteed access to the class.
