Active’s bib number tool reduces the administrative work normally associated with race number allocation and event packet distribution.  This tool allows you to set your number sequences at the event level or down to the registrant type, and then automatically allocates a number to each participant at the moment of registration submission.  Real-time number allocation means that your administrative staff can stuff event packets as you go and not put off the work until batches of data are exported and numbers manually allocated.  Also, with the event registration system doing the work, you are guaranteed that two bib numbers will never be used twice – a common error with spreadsheets of manually allocated numbers.

The bib number tool is located under the Functions tab in the Additional Resources section.


Bib number data is available in all standard and custom reporting.  You can also merge the bib number in all confirmation and follow-up emails.
