Configure an External Registration URL

If you manage registrations on a third-party platform, OuiRace lets you configure an external registration URL. Your race remains visible on OuiRace, but participants are redirected to your website or partner platform when they click the registration button.

When to use external registration?​

This feature is useful in the following cases:

  • You already use a third-party registration system (Klikego, Njuko, etc.).
  • You want to manage registrations directly on your association's website.
  • You are participating in a federated event with a centralized registration portal.
Visibility without registration

Even with an external URL, your race benefits from full OuiRace visibility: presence in the race list, search engine, complete detail page, and social media sharing.

Configure the external URL​

  1. Open your race from the organizer dashboard.
  2. Go to the race settings.
  3. In the "External registration" section, enable the option.
  4. Enter the full URL of the third-party registration page.
  5. Click "Save".

FieldRequiredDescription
External registration URLYesFull link to the registration page (e.g. https://example.com/registration)
URL format

Make sure the URL is complete and includes the protocol (https://). A malformed link will prevent the redirect.

Behavior on the participant side​

When an external URL is configured:

  1. The participant views the detail page of your race on OuiRace.
  2. They click the "Register" button.
  3. They are redirected to the external URL in a new tab.
  4. Registration is handled entirely on the third-party platform.

The standard OuiRace registration button is replaced by a redirect button, clearly identified.

Referral tracking​

OuiRace automatically records redirect clicks to your external URL. This lets you measure the traffic generated by the OuiRace platform to your registration site.

You can view these statistics in the Analytics and referral section of your dashboard.
