“What has happened over the last five months has surpassed my expectations. I'm constantly learning of the various dashboard applications, on the pre and post event side of things. It absolutely makes my job as an event director easier, especially in those moments prior to a race where time is of the essence. Most of all, I want to thank you all for the dedicated support, user friendly applications, and integration with timing systems.”

REVENUE SHARERunSignUp shares 20% of the processing fee revenue with partners in
return for their volume and doing part of the support and setup work required to support multiple races
Minimum 10 races and/or 5,000 registrations per year to qualifyPartners have control over Processing Fees charged to races and keep
any additional fees chargedSet across all races, with ability to modify on a per race basisExample:• $30 race, $2.50 standard RunSignUp processing fee• Partner receives $0.50 of the $2.50 (20%)• Partner chooses to charge $3.10 to recover the value they are
providing to the race. The partner keeps the extra $0.60• The partner in this case is keeping $1.10 of each $30 registration
We were able to more than double the revenue share we were getting from our previous provider. And we get better service and better software. We have taken that extra cash and grown our events this year. 27
