Participant is a secure online booking system which caters to the needs of event organisers and participants. Payments are integrated into the platform saving you the expense and hassle of setting up a separate agreement with a third party payment provider. We collect the payments on your behalf and transfers the funds on a weekly basis into your bank account. New events take minutes to set up and participants simply click on a link to book and pay. We offer a standard solution which has no fixed monthly costs as well as a more feature rich version which comes with a whole suite of additionally functionality.
As Participant is very scalable it is used by numerous large organisations (such as the Football Association, Premier League football clubs and Great Ormond Street Hospital) as well as hundreds of smaller providers that offer after school clubs, holiday camps, weekly classes and training courses across the country.
