The new release includes the ability for events to use the app as a dedicated Results Kiosk enabling participants to access their own results effortlessly.
RunSignup, the leading provider of registration and event technology, unveils the latest advancements in its RaceDay CheckIn app, transforming its use to greater functionality. The new release includes the ability for events to use the app as a dedicated Results Kiosk enabling participants to access their own results effortlessly. Moreover, the Kiosk Mode, coupled with the enhanced capability to access, modify, and add participant data, now empowers event organizers to utilize the RaceDay CheckIn app for a wide range of scenarios beyond check-ins.
“The RaceDay CheckIn app is already the most popular race day product we offer and is used to check in millions of participants each year. We are thrilled to introduce this expanded functionality to open up new utilizations of the app for event organizers and timers. From using it for crisis management situations to tracking more jovial purposes - the sky's the limit and I’m looking forward to seeing the industry’s creativity," said Bob Bickel, Founder and CEO of RunSignup.
Traditionally, the RaceDay CheckIn app has been primarily used for checking participants into events. However, the new Kiosk Mode opens up a range of possibilities, enabling event organizers to leverage the app for various applications, including its new Results Lookup feature where events can offer participants the ability to conveniently access their online results. Participants can access their performance data by scanning their bib number or doing a quick bib lookup using a number pad.
The versatility of the RaceDay CheckIn app extends even further to where event organizers or timers can easily access, modify, and add participant information for a variety of needs. This direct access to participant data and ability to add information opens up a host of possibilities such as Medical Tent configuration where staff are able to quickly access participant information and add pertinent information on their condition. It can play a crucial role in emergency situations with rapid access to participant information, including emergency contact details.
Events can also use the app to gather information that might be needed using the new Data Add-On feature such as tracking the number of donuts consumed in a donut eating contest. By harnessing the app's capabilities, organizers and timers can apply creative approaches to help with race operations and the overall participant race experience.
The RaceDay CheckIn app with its enhanced features, is now available for event organizers to leverage and can be used with phones, tablets, and kiosks. The RaceDay CheckIn app is a free product offering available for events using RunSignup’s registration platform. It seamlessly integrates with RunSignup’s registration and RaceDay technology including scored results and bib management.
