From registration to the opening round

Keep the sign-up list connected to the competition.

A standalone form collects responses. ScoreKeeperCo takes an approved team into the event you will score and share, so the roster becomes part of your tournament workflow.

  1. 01

    Create your event

    Start a bracket or round robin board, name the event, and turn on Registration in the admin page. Choose capacity before you share the link.

  2. 02

    Collect the details

    Add up to five custom questions and an optional waiver. For paid entry, finish Stripe payout setup, set the entry fee, and review the participant’s checkout amount.

  3. 03

    Approve your field

    Review the pending list and approve teams into open roster slots. Once the field is settled, generate your bracket or schedule and share the public tournament hub.

A form that fits your event

Ask what you need. Keep sign-up simple.

Registration collects the team name and contact email. Use the optional fields for information that changes how you organize the event; keep unrelated questions out of the sign-up flow.

Export the registration roster as a CSV when you need a working list for check-in. A form answer does not automatically assign a division: review the roster before building pools or the bracket.

Know what teams will pay

Your entry fee, with checkout costs shown separately.

You choose the posted entry fee. Participants pay it plus a separate service fee that includes payment processing. The calculator below uses the same calculation as registration checkout.

Free events work too

Leave the entry fee at zero for a free sign-up. You can still collect team details, ask custom questions, set capacity, and review entries before approving them.

Payment and approval are separate

A payment does not automatically put a team into the draw. Tell participants how you handle approval and any entry conditions before publishing the form. Manage refunds through the supported payment process; removing a roster entry should not be treated as a refund.

Before taking payments: finish Stripe payout setup, confirm the correct event and fee, set your capacity, and review the public registration page. Close registration when the field is final so you can generate the draw from a settled roster.

Questions before you start?

Is the tournament registration form free?

Registration is available on every plan. Free sign-ups do not carry an entry-payment service fee. If you charge an entry fee, participants pay a separate service fee. Bracket capacity is 8 participants on Free, 32 on Pro, and up to 999 on Studio; any capacity set by the organizer also applies.

Do players need an account to register?

No. Participants use your shared registration link without creating a ScoreKeeperCo account. They provide a team name and email, answer your required questions, and complete any required acceptance or payment steps.

Can I use this for doubles or team registration?

Yes. Treat each bracket participant as the competing entry, such as a doubles pair or a full team. Use the name and custom questions to collect partner or captain details. It is not a player membership or eligibility verification system.

Can I stop accepting registrations?

Yes. Turn Registration off in the admin page to stop new sign-ups. Existing entries remain in the roster. Set capacity before opening registration and settle the field before generating the bracket.

Can I download the registration list?

Yes. Export the registration roster as a CSV, including custom registration answers. This is separate from the Studio feature for exporting standings and match schedules.

Will a team automatically join after paying?

No. Organizers review registrations and approve participants into available roster slots. Payment, approval, and the bracket draw are separate steps.
