Manage your Zoom Events host profile

On their public host profile page, hosts have the ability to organize and manage data that is visible to attendees and available to the public. As a host, you can add your profile picture and contact information, as well as links to your social networks.

Note:

You will be prompted to create a host profile when you first log into Zoom Events, along with a default hub when you first log in.

Requirements for managing your Zoom Events host profile

  • Zoom desktop client
    • Windows: 5.7.6 or higher
    • Mac OS: 5.7.6 or later
  • Mobile Zoom client
    • iOS: 5.7.6 or later
    • Android: 5.7.6 or higher
  • Pro, Business, Enterprise or Education account
  • Stripe or PayPal business account is required to create paid events
  • Zoom Events License

Remarks:

  • The Zoom Events platform depends on the Webview package of Windows; Therefore, although version 5.7.6 can support Zoom events, the host may find that the lobby is inaccessible due to this dependency.
  • It is highly recommended that hosts update their Zoom desktop client or mobile application to the latest version as soon as possible in order to access the latest Zoom events and webinar features.
