# Activity: Wait for Event

'Wait for Event' is an activity available in Campaign > Flow that allows an operator to execute an action after a specific event or redirect the user if the time for completion passes (timeout).<br>

Operators can define for how long to wait, either using relative time or a specific date/time, in the delay settings.<br>

For example, an Operator can create a campaign that triggers when a player makes a deposit above an exact amount, then add specific 'Wait for Event' to happen, and delay the execution until a particular date (or day of the week) in the delay settings.

#### **Use Case Scenario**

The **“Wait for Event”** activity can be used in various situations.

For example, in a Promo Code campaign, after a user is shown the popup, the **“Wait for Event”** step can be added that triggers only after a specific action - such as **“Core: Client Action.”**

In this case, the client action would be the user entering the promo code (e.g., **WIN100**).

Then, Operator should use the same Event within “Check user profile” or “Multiple check” activity and the relevant payload:<br>
