Help Tickets and Tech Support

Contact Campminder staff through help tickets and phone support

Updated over a week ago

While browsing our help articles and videos is your first step for learning, sometimes you need to reach out to a person for specific guidance. Campminder is available to guide you and answer the most specific of questions about everything that makes your camp unique.

💡Tip: The best way to reach out to us is through the ticketing system. This way you'll have a record of all the communication, in case you need to refer to it later.

NOTE: you may hear some of our support agents refer to tickets as "cases." This is what we call them on our side.

Creating a Help Ticket

  1. Click on the yellow ticket icon in the navigation panel (top right).

    From here , you can view your existing tickets, any Campminder announcements, and submit new tickets.

  2. Click the green 'Create New Ticket' button. Select a category from the drop-down list (see below for category descriptions) and enter a brief description of the issue in the subject line. This is the title of the ticket.

  3. Write as thoroughly as possible about your question in the text box. The more detail you use, the more likely we'll be able to help without having to write back to get more information.

  4. Enter a contact phone number if you'd like to be called back about the issue, especially if it's a different number than we have on file for you.

  5. Check the box to make the ticket available for all users in your organization. This can be useful if you want all staff members in your organization to be notified of the ticket and the response that will come from Campminder.

    Note: By default, this is OFF. That means your tickets are private (between you and Campminder staff) unless you choose otherwise.

  6. If needed, you may attach a file.

  7. Click the green 'Submit Ticket' button.
