Features
Everything a ministry registration needs.
Nothing locked behind a paywall.
Every feature on this page is included for every organization, free or paid. No tiers. No add-on modules. Paid registrations cost 50¢-$1 per registrant; free events stay free.
Three jobs Sitelite does for every ministry.
Most registration tools cover the first one and leave you on your own for the next two. Sitelite is built to do all three.
Open registration
From signup link to first registrant in under an hour. Branded subdomain, custom fields, payment plans, waitlist - all standard.

Get paid
Stripe Connect routes funds directly to your account. Payment plans, supporter contributions, and refunds without a spreadsheet.

Run event day
Cabin assignments, transportation manifests, dietary reports, check-in roster, merch tracking. The work that starts after checkout.

Job 1
Open registration in an hour.
Pick your colors, write your event description, set your capacity, hit publish. Registrants land on a branded page that looks like your ministry, not a third-party tool. No IT department, no developer, no monthly subscription waiting on the other side.
-
Branded subdomain
Your events live at yourorg.sitelite.com with your logo and primary color. Registrants never see Sitelite in the URL bar during checkout.
-
Custom form fields
Add text, dropdowns, checkboxes, or radio options - per-registrant or once per order. Apply org-wide or to a single event.
-
Capacity + automatic waitlist
Set a cap per event. When full, registrants auto-queue. When a spot opens, the next group gets a 24-hour payment link.
-
4-step wizard, no account required
Attendees, waivers, payment, confirmation - one checkout. Multiple registrants per order. Guardian waivers signed inline or emailed.
-
Clone last summer's event
Running camp again? Clone any past event - details, ticket types, custom fields, waivers - in one click.
Job 2
Get paid without spreadsheet math.
Stripe Connect routes every payment straight to your bank account — Sitelite never holds your money. Payment plans, supporter contributions, refunds, and discount codes are built in, so the only number you actually have to track is the one that lands in your account.
-
Stripe Connect, 30-second setup
Funds land directly in your Stripe account at 2.2% + 30¢ for 501(c)(3) nonprofits (standard: 2.9% + 30¢). Already have a Stripe account? Connect it in seconds.
-
Payment plans included
Offer 2, 3, or 4-installment plans. First payment at checkout; Sitelite auto-charges the rest on your schedule. Failed payments retry with grace periods.
-
Contribution Links
Grandparents and sponsors chip in toward a registrant's balance via a shareable link. No extra platform fee. Live progress bar shows how close they are to fully funded.
-
Discount codes
Percent or fixed-amount codes with expiry dates and use limits. Apply across tickets and add-ons; codes split proportionally between line items.
-
Refunds without invoicing us
Process full or partial refunds from your dashboard. Stripe handles the money; Sitelite refunds its platform fee proportionally. You never receive an invoice from us.
Sitelite never marks up Stripe's rates. What Stripe charges is what you pay - nothing more. See the full pricing breakdown for the math.
Job 3
Walk into event day with a plan.
This is where most registration tools stop and you start opening Excel. Sitelite carries you through. Drag campers into cabins. Print bus manifests. Pull up dietary restrictions. Check people in with one tap. The work that actually makes the event happen.
-
Cabin & group assignments
Drag registrants from unassigned into color-coded columns. Leader and member roles. Live fill counts. Works for cabins, buses, duty crews, tables, or anything custom.
-
Transportation manifests
Assign campers to buses or vans with driver name, phone, departure times, and pickup locations. Print vehicle manifests with emergency contacts and medical flags.
-
Check-in & dietary/medical flags
Searchable digital roster with one-click check-in. Dietary restrictions and medical flags surface inline. Aggregated dietary report for food service.
-
Merch fulfillment tracking
Size breakdown for ordering (S x12, M x18, L x9). Mark items distributed at check-in. Bulk 'mark all distributed' for a group or ticket type.
-
Automated emails that run themselves
Confirmations, 7-day and 1-day reminders, waiver follow-ups, installment alerts, failed-payment recovery, document notifications. Configure once; we handle the rest.
-
Five one-click CSV exports
Registrants, waiver status, payments, check-in roster, groups + transportation. The reports you'd otherwise spend a Tuesday night assembling in Excel.
Built for the trust your board expects.
Guardian waivers with legal-grade signatures. Immutable registration records. GDPR-ready data handling. The infrastructure your board will ask about.
Guardian waivers
- Define waivers org-wide or per event.
- Every signature captures typed name, timestamp, IP, and exact waiver text as it existed when signed.
- Version tracking flags registrants with outdated signatures after material changes.
- Guardian signing for minors: inline during registration or a separate emailed link.
- Signatures are never deleted. Retained for legal compliance indefinitely.
Compliance & data
- GDPR-ready: registrant data is scoped per organization. Never crosses org boundaries.
- Immutable registration records: price, waiver text, and registration details locked at checkout.
- Right-to-erasure: staff can anonymize a participant's PII while preserving the legal waiver record.
- CAN-SPAM / GDPR: all non-transactional emails include one-click unsubscribe.
- Soft deletes on all core records. No permanent data loss from accidental actions.
