Using the RaceDay Technology Suite
Like all RunSignup tools for endurance events, the RaceDay technology suite is an open set of tools, meaning you can use all the ones that are right for your event without being contractually obligated to use them all. While many of the tools are available to both race directors and timers, make sure you always discuss your race day plans with your timer to ensure a seamless event.
RaceDay Technology Suite
RaceDay Registration
Maximize registrations with user-friendly on site registration options.
- Go paperless and offer speedy registration on dedicated devices at your expo or packet pickup with On Site Registration that auto-logs out each registrant after they pay with card or cash

Cultivate FOMO and bring runners back to your site with race photos stored directly on your race website.
