Whatever your participants need, it's right there with the sign up, no separate download link required.
Your file appears at the top of the sign up, and participants can download it whenever they sign up.
Attachments Work with Custom Templates Too
Building a custom reminder or confirmation template? You can attach files from GeniusDrive there as well, so participants get the right document every time, automatically.
See how custom templates workIs attaching files a paid feature?
Yes. File attachments through GeniusDrive are available on paid accounts.
Can I use the same file on more than one sign up?
Yes. Once a file is uploaded to GeniusDrive, you can attach it to any sign up or email without uploading it again.
Can I attach files to reminders, not just the sign up itself?
Yes. You can attach a file directly to a message in the Messages area, or build it into a custom reminder or confirmation template so it goes out automatically.
I just wanted to say thank you to the SignUpGenius team for such a fabulous website. I have been organizing a Christmas giving event at my office for almost 15 years. When I first started, I printed off "angels" and typed in wish lists for each kid and mom to be adopted for Christmas gift. ... Last year, I used SignUpGenius for the first time for my event. It has made a significant impact on organizing this event, saving me hours and hours of time. Plus, it allowed me to easily distribute information about the event. It has taken away much of the stress of coordinating this event, and I am able to reflect more on why I do this rather than stress over the details.
