How it works

Registering for an event

Every upcoming event is on the Events list. Open one, choose your tickets, and fill in your name, email and phone. If the event asks for each guest's name (or a question like a meal choice), you'll see those fields too.

• Some events are for members only; the event page says so.
• Events with limited space show how many spots are left. Only paid registrations hold a spot.
• You get a confirmation email as soon as your payment is in. Keep it: it has your tickets and a link to request a refund.

Paying

By card

Card payments are handled on Stripe's secure checkout page; card numbers never reach our site. Prices on the site already include the card processing fee, so what you see is what you pay.

By Zelle (no card fee)

1. Choose Pay with Zelle on the registration form and register.
2. You'll see, and get by email, the amount, where to send it, and a short code such as FC-K7QX9.
3. Send the payment by Zelle within an hour, and put the code in the Zelle memo.
4. When your bank's payment reaches us, it's matched automatically and you get your confirmation, usually within a few minutes.

• Forgot the code? We also match by your name and the exact amount, so pay from an account in the name you registered with if you can.
• Already sent the money? Register with Pay with Zelle under the name you paid with (or put your email in the Zelle memo). The payment is applied right away.
• Your spot is confirmed only when the payment arrives. If an event fills up before it does, an organizer will contact you.

Refunds

Each event shows its refund policy. To ask for a refund, use the Request a refund link in your confirmation email, or go to fundaclub.org/refund and enter the email you booked with; we'll email you a link for each upcoming booking. An organizer reviews every request and emails you back.

• Paid by card: the ticket price goes back to your card (allow 5 to 10 days). The card processing fee isn't refundable.
• Paid by Zelle: Zelle payments can't be refunded automatically. If your refund is approved, an organizer sends it back to you by Zelle.
• Paid by cash, check or on Eventbrite: an organizer refunds you the way you paid.

Membership

Membership runs for a calendar year. Sign up or renew from Membership: one IITian ticket and, if you like, one spouse ticket per sign-up. The form asks for your IIT campus, batch, dietary preferences and interests so we can plan events you'll enjoy.

• New members (IITians who weren't members this year) name a current member who nominates them. The nominator gets an email to confirm; your membership starts when they do. If they don't confirm, your sign-up is cancelled and refunded in full.
• Spouses can join with the IITian (we need the spouse's own email address, different from the IITian's), or on their own using their IITian spouse's email (who must be a current member).
• The email address you sign up with becomes the one the club uses for you.
• WonDA, the club's spouses' circle, runs its own get-togethers through the year.

Filling in your details

You don't have to type your details every time:

• The Register button in an invitation email opens the form with your details already filled in.
• On the form, type your email and click Email me a code; the 6-digit code fills in the rest.
• Your browser remembers what you used last time (Not you? Clear removes it).

Any email address you use with the club works, as long as we have it on your record. To add one or change your main address, email us.

Photos and videos

Photos has a gallery for each event. Sign in with a 6-digit code emailed to you.

• Current members see every event's gallery; others see the events they went to.
• If you went, you can add your own photos and videos once the event starts, and remove the ones you added.

Day planners and carpools

For day trips we sometimes open a planner page for ticket holders: pick the optional stops and lunch, offer seats in your car, or find a ride. You'll get an email with a personal link. Phone numbers and emails are shown only to the people in the same car.

Emails from the club

• Invitations to upcoming events go to everyone on the club's mailing list. Every invitation has an Unsubscribe link.
• Reminders go to ticket holders about 48 hours before an event, with the place, time and your tickets.
• Confirmations and reminders for events you register for are sent even if you unsubscribe from invitations.
• Not getting our emails? Check your spam folder and add events@fundaclub.org to your contacts.

Questions

Email events@fundaclub.org or reply to any club email. A real person reads every message.
