Core Technology For Running Clubs…

Say goodbye to spreadsheets and usher in the era of cross promotion and automation with RunSignup’s Club Membership Platform.

Membership Management

Cross-Promotion


Promote your running club’s races to your members, and encourage race registrants to check out your club through member discounts.

Sell Merchandise


Set up an online store to encourage merchandise sales, both directly on the club website and within the membership registration process.

Key Features of the RunSignup Club Platform

Roster Management & Payment Collection

RunSignup makes it easy for you to manage your roster of members, prompt renewals, and collect payments. Flexible membership options include:

  • Membership for a set number of days or months
  • Membership for a set date range (often used by limited-time training programs)
  • Yearly memberships
  • Individual memberships and/or group/family memberships for more than one person

Membership Reports

Track your members and finances with built-in reporting, including:

  • Searchable lists of members and memberships at the click of a button

  • Full financial reporting including downloadable list of transactions and payments
  • Donation merchandise sold reports

Cross-Promote Races and Clubs

Leverage cross-promotion for your club and your races (or partner races). Cross-promotion functionality includes:

  • Offer race discounts to your members, and membership discounts to the runners who register for your races
  • Let runners sign up for your club and a race in one transaction to encourage new members
  • Automatically recognize (and discount) club members registering for your race, and prompt those who aren’t members to register

Collect donations to support your club operations or fundraise for a local charity. Donation options include:

  • Ability to customize donation levels to reflect the impact of the donation
  • Goal thermometer to show progress towards your goal
  • Donor list to recognize and thank your donors

Set up a simple online store for members to purchase club gear and accessories.

  • Easy setup with custom description and image
