Promoting health and wellness through running About the Bellin Run The Bellin Run is a 10K held on the second Saturday of June each year.

RunSignup supports several team options that you can enable for your race. Social or Competitive Groups/Teams, Fundraiser Teams, and Corporate Teams are all supported, each with specific features. RunSignup’s Sean Callahan and Emily Warejko took some time at the Summer Symposium to walk you through the different team options you have for your race. After […]
Corporate Teams are one of the most powerful RunSignup features, but they aren’t one we talk about a lot for a very simple reason: they aren’t appropriate for most races. For most events, the basic Group/Teams function is ideal, but for true corporate team events, the corporate team feature is extremely robust and flexible. Technical Account Manager […]

This feature will save some administrative time for races with corporate teams. We have added “Corporate Team” as a field in the participant registration record so a race director can easily view a runner’s corporate team affiliation. The team name is also a link for quick and easy access to the corporate team management page. This line […]
We now offer an option to allow for age-based pricing with corporate team registrations. If this option is turned on, the age-based pricing will override any special corporate team pricing the race may have set-up. This is a very nice option for races where students and/or seniors receive discounts that might be greater than the discounted corporate team pricing. […]
We now give Corporate Team Captains the ability to buy additional entries for the race. The cost is the same set for that team type in the Corporate Team setup. This is a new option that is enabled in the Corporate Team Pre-Paid Package dashboard setup: You can also set up packages with defined # […]
Corporate Team races (races where companies are paying for race registration in various ways) can now enable the purchase of store items to be paid by invoice. This is useful for store items that Corporate Team Captains might be purchasing like Tent Rental. Turn this capability on in the Corporate Team Setup: This means that […]
Corporate Team Captains sometimes have a tough time remembering how to login to manage their Corporate Teams. We have added a new button on the Corporate Team page for quick login, and have added a widget for races with their own websites.
We have always had the ability to set up different team types in Corporate Teams, but we now allow you to have them listed on the race page as different tabs. This will make a lot more sense and work better when we come out with the new runner facing user interface with a menu […]
CAUTION – USE THIS FEATURE CAREFULLY. We have added an option to allow Race Directors and Corporate Team Captains to change the employee status of participants. The idea is that if someone signed up as an employee for the corporate team, but are actually not an employee then their employment status can be changed. Race […]
You can give Corporate Team Captains access to certain questions. This is a new option in the Custom Questions on a per questions basis:
We now offer more flexibility for Corporate Team invoicing as you can see below:
Yes, that title was intentional. RunSignUp has extensive support for Corporate Teams. This is where a company is typically providing some sort of support for employees, like helping to pay for entry fees, or providing discounted fees to members of Corporate Teams (perhaps because the company helped with sponsorship of the race). Since the company […]

Innovation: The act or process of introducing new ideas, devices, or methods. As technology people, we love the opportunity to continually innovate and bring new features to the table…but don’t mistake innovation for instability. We believe innovative technology should still be reliable technology. Have ideas? Challenge us!
We have added an option that allows corporate team captains to view the add-ons ordered by their team members. This is available in the Corporate Team Setup page.
We added the ability to download a CSV of all the information for corporate teams. This download option is available at the bottom of the Team Report Summary. You can now get all the information in one report, like: Team Name Team Type Captains Captain Email and Phone Number of employees Total number of people […]

Team Captains now have the ability to import participants to their corporate teams. While most Corporate teams have members sign up themselves, some companies want to have a person do all the registration. Imports can be done either with a CSV file (Excel spreadsheet output), or via our new editor. Once members are added, they […]

RunSignUp has had the reserved entries feature for a while. We just added this feature to the new Corporate Team. This is perfect for inviting elite runners, or for allowing some special late entries into your race even though the cap has been reached or the registration is closed. You can do this from the […]
Today we are releasing our solution for Corporate Team Race/Walks. We have had the benefit of several large Run/Walks giving us guidance on their requirements. We will thank those folks publicly when they go live with their races (but we have to release the software before they can put their races live). Corporate Team Races […]
