The race registration tool knows nothing about the expo vendors or sponsor banners.
Use case
Fun runs and 5Ks, run from one dashboard.
Run the event site, race entries and expo booths, applications from sponsors and expo vendors, booth assignments, and event-day check-in for fun runs, charity 5Ks, and race-day expos from one connected dashboard.
Who it's for
Fun runs, charity 5Ks, and race-day expos.
Instead of sending attendees, vendors, sponsors, and staff through separate tools, every workflow stays attached to the same event record - so nothing falls through the cracks between your form tool, your ticket link, and your spreadsheet.
- Publish a branded event site
- Sell race entries and expo booths
- Collect applications from sponsors and expo vendors
- Assign booths on the floor-plan map
- Run QR check-in at the door
The old way
What usually goes wrong.
Sponsors and expo vendors apply in one tool while payments happen in another.
Booth assignments get redrawn in a spreadsheet nobody else can see.
Event-day staff work from printed lists that were stale before doors opened.

FAQ
Common questions.
Can sponsors and expo vendors apply and pay online?
Yes. Sponsors and expo vendors fill out a structured application with your custom questions, and once approved they can pay booth or table fees through Stripe checkout - or you can record manual payments like cash and checks.
Does VendlyNest sell race entries and expo booths too?
Yes - tickets, booths, sponsor packages, and add-ons all live in one commerce layer with capacity limits, sold-out protection, receipts, and QR passes.
Do we need a separate website builder?
No. Every event gets a multi-page microsite with themes, drag-and-drop content blocks, vendor and guest directories, and optional custom domains.
