We are at our second location of our four-city RaceDay Certification Timer Tour. Last week in Philadelphia went very well and we made some minor tweaks to the certification process based on our experience there. Timers are using the new and easy-to-use RaceDay CheckIn app to check in for the certification training. We emailed out QR […]
We have added a couple of more features to Expo Mode (which is the great fully customizable registration kiosk solution for races at Expos or on race day). First, we have made it simple to take offline donations. Set the password in the setup (see above), and then volunteers manning your kiosks can use the […]
As we announced a while back, Google has decided to end of life their Chrome applications. Races used the RunSignUp.com/CheckIn link to get to this app (or downloaded it as a Chrome app) to get to this version. Effective January 1 it will no longer be available. We are posting the message on the right […]
We have made it simpler to give volunteers access to the legacy version of the check-in app (not the dedicated mobile phone-based check-in app). Previously, you had to grant them access to the race or sign them all into your own account. We now have a specific, secure URL that each race can create and […]
We have added a confirmation check when doing a bulk check-in. We’ve had a few customers accidentally check-in people.
We have added several options to the web version of Check-In (not the native Check-In App): Estimated Finish Time USATriathlon Waiver Status Corrals All of these are configurable in the Customization page on the Race Dashboard.
When a race gives a timer “Timer Access”, the timer now has the ability to access the Check-In App setup. Yes, we probably should have done this earlier 🙂

We have made some very nice enhancements to our check-in app reports and downloads under Participants>>View Participants. The participant report now includes a “Checked-In” field.

Installing Printer Drivers on Windows for the Check In App In order to print with the Check In App, there may be some changes you will have to make to your local printing driver configuration.

The new Check-In App has reporting built into it. When people log into the app they enter their name. If you have multiple check-in stations, this allows you to keep track of how many people checked in at each station. This is also useful for running stores with multiple check-in locations to track how many people […]

This past weekend, Blacklight Run and Night Nation […]

As we get ready to release our new Offline Check-In App, we wanted to review the details on the best options for hardware. We are also including specific installation instructions. This is a Google Chrome App, which has a major advantage in that is can run on any device. The negative is that printing devices […]
We are in the process of building an offline check-in app and are looking for feature requests. We are hoping to have this available in June – so the sooner you give feedback the better.

We have added a “Quick Sort” on the Check-In page for Name, City, Registration Date and Bib #.
We continue to get good feedback on our Check-In capability. Most recently, a large race series with about 5,000+ participants per event gave us feedback that their tablet check-in could be improved with a larger button and the ability to Save and Check-in with one click. Here is the new check-in:
We have been getting good feedback from customers that are checking in thousands of participants for their races. We added the nice custom EMail option with the barcode for each participant. Today we have made it super fast to scan and go by adding this new option to the Check-In Configuration page on RD Go. […]
We include a registration # barcode on the confirmation page, the confirmation email and now you have the ability to include the barcode in any email you send your runners. What is the Barcode? The barcode is the registration ID number. Each person who registers for a race in RunSignUp is issued a unique registration […]
One of the best things about the new EMail system is the ability to put registrant information into each email very easily. My favorite example is sending an email a couple of days before the race. This example, shows the new ability to add the Registration Bar Code to the email. If you are using […]
As part of our RunSignUp Go race day efforts, we have made a large set of improvements to our Bib Assignment and Check-In capability.
