RunSignup, the leading registration and technology provider for endurance events in the U.S., announces the integration of Apple Pay and Apple Wallet for efficient registration, donations, and race check-ins. With Apple Pay, registering for events becomes even faster and more seamless, and caters to the needs of today's mobile-driven users. Supporters are also able to easily donate to fundraising events. In addition, participants can store registration and QR codes in their Apple Wallet accounts to help expedite the check-in process on race day. 

"We are excited to bring the integration of Apple Pay and Apple Wallet to the events on our platform. Since the majority of our mobile users are on Apple devices, it was a natural step for us. We are seeing 16% of transactions (in addition to the 17% who use their saved credit cards on RunSignup) using Apple Pay to pay for registrations and expect this to continue to grow," said Bob Bickel, Founder and CEO of RunSignup. 

RunSignup’s integration with Apple Pay is available for all race events to use as a convenient way for participants to pay for their registration through mobile devices. Apple Pay is also available for standalone donations, such as when supporters donate to an event or to a fundraiser without signing up for the event. In addition, the integration with Apple Wallet creates efficiencies for race day as participants are able to store their QR Codes and event information and quickly access on race day and check-in with our Checkin App.
