CUSTOMIZE YOUR EVENT SIGNUPS

Build flexible signups that capture all the details of every unique event.

Coordinate the details for VBS, camps, retreats, and much more.

Attendee categories

Present categories people can register for, such as a role—like leader, volunteer, or participant—or a demographic—like child, adult, or school grade. Then tailor the signup to be what you need from that type of attendee.

Attendance caps

Set a maximum capacity for each event and let attendees select the number of people coming.

Household signups

Allow families to register for events together so they can all get—and stay—connected to the life of your church.

Bonus purchase options

Include optional extras for purchase, like shirts or books, or any additional activities people want to participate in, like arts and crafts or horseback riding at camp.
