Athletepath kills off reg "convenience fees", spreading the word!
Quote | Reply
David with Athletepath here. If you haven't encountered the site, we're a social network for racers, and we also provide a great registration service.


Last week we announced that we're eliminating registration "convenience fees", and are cutting costs to events by 70%. We're out to completely eliminate the practice of tacking-on parasitic fees. No more "bait and switch" pricing. The price you see is the price you pay.

What this means:
1) Never pay add-on "convenience fees" again when athletes register for races.
2) Events get the lowest reg pricing in the world: 2.9% + $0.30. Period. Like Square or PayPal, but for races.
3) We don't spam athletes, aren't selling memberships or magazines, and never distribute consumer info.


I would love your feedback, and am happy to answer questions.
Is this meaningful to you? Exciting to see the inkling of an industry change? Would you be inclined to tell your favorite races to make the switch?


Also, if you're an event director, or are friends with an event director, we want to work with you and support your racers.
