Pricing
Free to draw. Pay when it becomes a course.
A route is yours for nothing, forever. An event is the organizer's problem, and that's what Skad charges for: one flat price per event, about what one runner pays to enter.
Your first event is free.
Set it up, take it live, and the checkout never appears. Everything Organizer Solo does, until a month after race day. One per organizer, ever.

Organizer Solo
How paying per event works.
- Per event, not per seat.
- You pay for one event, once, about what one runner pays to enter. Every race in it, every station, every page. There is no subscription behind it.
- Try it before you buy it.
- Set the whole event up on the Runner plan and preview the runner page, the crew page, and the print pack as the owner. Pay when you want other people to see them.
- One edition, then it's your call.
- The event stays live until a month after its last day, whenever you paid. Then the public and crew pages go quiet. Most races are annual, so renewing the same event for its next date is €19: the course and stations are already built. Nothing is deleted and your routes stay yours.
- No per-runner fee.
- Send the link to 30 runners or 3,000. The price is the same, so nobody has to do the math before sharing it.
Questions
The ones organizers ask first.
- Is the first event really free?
- Yes, while the launch offer runs. Set the event up, and when you take it live the button says free instead of a price. No card, no trial that turns into a bill. It covers everything Solo has for one edition, until a month after race day, one per organizer, ever. A second event is the full price, and renewing this one next year is the renewal price.
- What counts as an event?
- One date, or a span of days, with as many races as you run on it. The Ridge 32K with its 10K and 5K on the same morning is one event.
- Do runners or volunteers need an account?
- No. Runners open a link. Crew open a link and type a six-character code you set. Nobody but you signs in.
- Can I change the course after paying?
- Yes. Edit the routes, move stations, add a race. Every page updates from the same event, right up to race day and the month after. You can move the date too, as long as it stays inside what you paid for.
- What happens after the event?
- A month after the last day, the crew page and the runner page stop resolving. The event, its routes, and its stations are kept, so renewing for the next date picks up where it left off.
- Is VAT on top?
- Yes. Prices are shown without tax; Romanian VAT is added at checkout, where Stripe works it out from your address. A VAT-registered club elsewhere in the EU enters its VAT number there and the reverse charge applies. Every payment comes with a proper invoice by email, and it's linked from the event afterwards.
- Do I need a card to start?
- No. Drawing, saving, sharing, and setting up an event are all on the Runner plan. Checkout only appears when you take an event live, and not at all for a free first event.
