Online registration and entries for dance competitions
Replace entry forms, email chains and spreadsheets with one registration link. Kompdesk handles studio and dancer sign-up, entries, fees, music and consent, and keeps every number in front of the organiser.
One link for every kind of entrant
Share your event registration page. Studios register and enter their dancers, independent dancers enter themselves, and parents manage their children from a guardian account. A dancer can even compete for more than one studio at the same event.
- Studio owner, independent dancer and parent or guardian accounts
- Guardian consent for minors
- Duplicate dancer protection so one dancer stays one profile
Entries that fit your rules
Entries are built from your age groups, styles, skill levels and performance types, so a studio can only enter a section that exists. Durations are checked against your limits, and custom questions collect anything else you need.
- Sections from age group, style, level and performance type
- Skill bands that stop sandbagging
- Entry close dates that lock changes automatically
Fees and payments
Registration and entry fees are calculated as entries are submitted. Studios see what they owe, pay by bank transfer or online with PayFast, and you see every balance on one dashboard.
- Automatic fee calculation
- Online payments with PayFast
- Payment tracking per studio and per independent dancer
Music, collected with the entry
Studios upload the track for each entry before the deadline. Files are checked for quality and duration, and the tech team plays them on the day from the music dashboard.
- Music upload per entry
- Quality and duration checks
- Tech team playback on event day
Questions
Can parents register their own children?
Yes. A parent or guardian account can create or claim dancer profiles, give consent for minors and register each child for an event.
What happens when entries close?
After the entry close date only the organiser can add or change entries, so the schedule can be built from a fixed list.
