Terms of Use for the Cvent Supplier Network

Cost to use the Supplier Network

The Supplier Network is a free online network for meeting and event planners (hereafter called "Users") to search, select, and source meeting and event industry suppliers. Hotels, venues, and companies that provide services to meeting and event planners (hereafter called "Suppliers") can also register for a free Supplier Network account (hereafter called "Basic Listing") to display their venue or service. The Supplier Network also serves as a portal for the transaction of requests for proposals, bid responses and related communications among registered Users and Suppliers.

Suppliers that have a Basic Listing pay no fees or commissions to Cvent for listing their venue, or service, or for transactions between Suppliers and registered Users through the Supplier Network. Suppliers can upgrade their free Basic Listing by purchasing a marketing package from Cvent. To find more information on buying a marketing package, please contact a Cvent sales representative at 1-866-318-4358.
