Can I host a meeting without registering?

Asked 6 months ago
To host a meeting using Zoom, registration for an account is generally required. This is because having an account allows users to access a variety of features such as scheduling, managing participants, and utilizing various settings that facilitate an effective meeting experience. Zoom does offer a free tier which allows individuals to host meetings up to forty minutes in length with multiple participants. If a user does not wish to register for an account, they may still be able to join meetings hosted by others by following a meeting link provided by the host. However, for the actual hosting capabilities, creating an account is necessary. Additionally, users may explore the Zoom website for information regarding the different account options available, including free and paid tiers, which cater to a range of needs. The website can be a great resource for understanding the features associated with each account type and finding valuable information for hosting meetings successfully.
