What is ChessRegister?

ChessRegister is an event registration system. It lets an organizer know that you will be attending an event and allows you to pay for the event fee (if applicable) online prior to the event.

Who should I contact if I have questions or comments about these events?

Contact your event organizer with questions about your event.

Some events require payment. What payment methods are available?

ChessRegister uses PayPal to accept payments. If you have a PayPal account you may use funds available within your account. You do not, however, need a PayPal account to use a credit card. PayPal accepts US-based Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express debit and credit cards.

I like ChessRegister but my organizer isn’t using it. How can I help?

Tell your organizer about us! It only takes a few minutes to set up a new organizer. Once they’re set up they can take a no-obligation test drive!

Why should I create an account?

You can save your profile details (name, address, etc.) and you won’t have to enter that information when you register for an event. More useful “member” features and services are planned. Organizers will need to create an account in order to create events.

How will I get my registrant information out of ChessRegister (and into my favorite pairing app)?

You may simply download your registrant data as a “CSV” file that you can import directly into your favorite spreadsheet program and/or you can create a set of “SwissSys” files that you can use with the popular SwissSys pairing program. Other file types will be supported as needed.
