Meet Millie — our Event Manager.

Millie helps plan and execute races, ensuring every detail runs smoothly, while collaborating with the Operations Manager and clients to keep events seamless and on track.

On or before race day, she:
• Meets with the clients to make sure everything is aligned.
• Creates and manages event pages to keep participants informed.
• Coordinates with internal teams and partners to ensure seamless race-day operations.

You’re not dealing with a help desk.
You’re dealing with someone who understands events.

Here’s what Gary Clareburt, Race Director of the Kapiti Cycling Club Winter Race Series 2022, had to say.

Exactly how it should be before and on race day.

We’re excited to welcome The Tax Centre Great Train Race in Tasmania onto Barefoot registration.

The event was already using our timing system — and moved registration across to make life even easier.

One platform.
One team.

With Barefoot, you choose how registration fees are handled.

• Absorb the fee
• Pass it on transparently
• Or blend the two

As long as pricing is clearly labelled and fair, organisers stay compliant and participants stay informed.

Platforms shouldn’t tell you how to run your event economics.

Fair pricing. Clear choice. Your event.

One of the biggest pressures we’re seeing across events right now?

Insurance.

Rising premiums, tighter requirements, and more admin.

Organisers are asking for:

• Cleaner data
• Fewer systems
• Better reporting
• Less risk on race day

That’s driving more events toward integrated registration and timing — not more platforms.

Barefoot is built and owned in Australia and New Zealand.

We don’t optimise for North America.
We don’t wait for overseas roadmaps.

We build for events here — the conditions, the calendars, the people.

If you’ve ever asked for a change and been told
“We’ll add it to the roadmap”…
you know why local matters.

Built here. Supported here. Tested by hundreds of events.

Registration and timing, made simple.

Barefoot registration and timing are fully open API.

That means:
• We connect easily to other platforms
• You’re never locked in
• Your data stays usable

But just as importantly — we can also provide one complete solution.

One team.
One system.
Less risk.

Registration and timing, made simple.

Live tracking sounds great — until race morning.

What actually matters is:

• Clean reads
• Redundancy
• Reliable data flow
• A team that knows how to fix issues on the ground

Our timing setups are built around real race-day conditions, not demos.

Registration and timing, made simple.

One thing organisers consistently tell us they hate? Waiting weeks to get paid.

With Barefoot registration, you choose when your money is paid out daily, weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. We also plug directly into your preferred payment gateway, so you’re not forced into a one-size-fits-all setup.

Less admin. More control. Fair pricing.
