Replace Your Paper Trail with Digital Registration


One of the biggest advantages of online registration software is the ability to go completely paperless. According to the Camp Market Research eBook 2022, surveyed parents preferred online camp registration. Collecting physical camp registration forms creates ample opportunities for human error. Papers can be misplaced or information inaccurately transcribed. An online camp registration system eliminates these pain points by collecting all camper data digitally from the start.


Families appreciate the convenience of signing up for camp online. They can access registration forms 24/7 and complete them on any device. Online forms are quick and easy to fill out. Many camp registration platforms like SmartRec by Amilia even allow families to save progress if they can't complete the form in one sitting.

For camp staff, online registration software centralizes all camper information in one secure digital system. Our customer, Camp Funderblast, said that SmartRec by Amilia saved camp staff crucial time, estimated to be upwards of 5 hours a day! Data can be accessed anytime, anywhere to pull reports, run searches, and generate custom invoices. Staff save significant time by not having to manually enter paper form data or file paperwork.

Online Registration Software Can Transform Your Camp Sign-up Process
