Everything an admin needs to run their season on SeasonStand. Start with the quick-start, then jump to the topic that matches what you're shipping today.

Quick start

01
Create your org and invite your admin team

Sign up at /admin/sign-up and pick an org slug — that slug becomes the URL families use to find you. Invite your treasurer, registrar, and head coaches with role-scoped access. Every admin uses one Clerk identity across every org they belong to; no extra logins.

02
Connect Stripe (ACH + card)

We use Stripe Connect Standard. From Settings → Payments, follow the Stripe onboarding flow to verify your EIN and bank account. ACH and card are both turned on by default — ACH at 0.8% (cap $5), card at 2.9% + 30¢. SeasonStand's flat 1% platform fee (no cap) is layered on top.

03
Build your first program with the wizard

The Program Builder is an eight-step wizard: Basics → Schedule → Pricing → Forms → Teams → Comms → Permissions → Review. You can ship a registration in under twenty minutes — sibling discounts, family caps, installment plans, conditional questions, and waivers are all native.

04
Publish your first team store

Open Team Stores → New Store. Pick a window (pop-up, catalog, or redemption), add your products, and customize them in the 3D Design Studio. Families see the storefront at /shop/[your-slug] — no login required for browsing, login required to check out.

05
Send your first announcement

Messages → New. Pick the audience (a program, a team, a roster filter), draft an email and/or SMS, and set quiet hours if needed. SafeSport rules apply automatically: any message to a minor is routed through their guardian, and the full audit log is searchable from the Messages tab.

Topic index

Registration

Conditional forms, age + grade gates, sibling discounts, family-cap pricing, installment plans, waivers + e-sign, financial aid requests. Built around the eight-step Program Builder wizard.

Payments + ACH + installments

Stripe Connect Standard with ACH default. Installments split a registration over a fixed schedule with ACH auto-debit; failures retry on a back-off curve before flipping to manual collections. Refunds and partial credits supported.

Family records + per-family caps

One family record crosses every org the family touches. Per-family caps apply across all kids in the family (e.g. "third kid free," "max $1,200 per season per family"). Guardians manage athletes from /portal/family.

Team stores (uniform + apparel)

Pop-up, catalog, or redemption stores. Native 3D uniform builder for game kit. Per-variant inventory tracking on every product. Sibling cart drawer keeps every kid's order together for one checkout.

Communications + SafeSport

Email, SMS, and in-app messaging with quiet hours and full audit log. SafeSport invariant: no private adult-to-minor channels — every message to a minor is mirrored to their guardian. Templates for season kickoff, payment reminders, schedule changes.

Tryouts + evaluations

Tryout signups with capacity, scoring rubrics for evaluators, and roster proposal flows. Evaluations stay private to the staff who need them and feed into the team-placement decision the head coach owns.

Schedules + iCal feeds

Practices, games, and travel events on the org calendar. Every family gets a personal iCal subscription URL that filters to their kids' teams only — drop it into Google Calendar or Apple Calendar and forget about it.

Finance + QuickBooks

Cash + accrual ledger native to the platform. Class-of-revenue breakouts (registrations, store, fundraising, financial aid). Two-way QuickBooks Online sync — connect from Finance → QuickBooks; class-of-revenue mappings and a sync log included.

Compliance (COPPA + SafeSport + background checks)

Parental consent flows for under-13 athlete records. SafeSport-compliant comms layer. Background-check tracking via NCSI — SeasonStand never sees the underlying report, only pass/fail + expiration. See /security for the full standards list.
