Can someone help please. When I go to account setting to enable breakout rooms for webinars as instructed in Zoom support, I don't have the option

Do you have the Sessions or Events add on? You need that in order to enable breakout rooms for webinars.  Trying to do this myself right now!

Thank you for this guidance. I was driving myself crazy trying to figure out why I didn't have this option. We have a Zoom Webinars license, but it looks we will have to get Events (because we want post-event surveys too).

Helpful comparison link for everyone:  https://zoom.us/pricing/events

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, just bought the Zoom session but the instruction wasn't so clear on Zoom support. I had to call them at the end.  It's all done and running now. Thanks for your reply

I believe Breakout rooms are only for meetings, not webinars. 

EDIT: I guess this is a new feature!
