Contest registration forms for a bake-off, a photo prize and a 5k

Contest registration forms are entry forms with a place to reserve and often a fee to pay, and they differ by what the contest is: a bake-off needs the category and the dish, a photo prize needs the upload and the caption, a 5k needs the age group, the size of the shirt and a waiver. This page gives one competition entry form template with three branches, one per contest, so the shared fields are built once and the contest-specific ones are shown by conditional logic. The fee is a payment line, and the free payment form calculator works what it charges and what the organiser keeps after the processor's cut, because a fee that is a round number on the form is not a round number in the account.

The shared fields, and the branch per contest

Name, email, phone, the contest from a dropdown, and the rules agreement are the base every branch shares. The bake-off branch reveals the category and the dish; the photo branch reveals the upload and the caption; the 5k branch reveals the age group, the shirt size and the waiver. On the request a quote form sheet five base fields and three questions per branch is 17 fields built and 8 seen by any one entrant, 72 seconds at nine seconds a field, which is the shape a phone finishes.

The entry fee, worked

A fee is a line with a quantity of one, or with the number of entries where more than one is allowed, and a shirt or a meal is an option fee. On the payment form calculator two entries at $45 and one at $120 with a $15 option is a $225 subtotal; at 8.25% sales tax that charges $243.56, the processor keeps $7.36 and $236.20 reaches the account. Whether a fee is taxable is your state's rule and the calculator publishes none; enter your own fee and rate and read yours.

The list on the day

Each registration is an entry with the branch taken, the payment, the waiver and a status from registered to checked-in to placed in Shortcodo Pro, so the bake-off's table of categories, the photo prize's gallery list and the 5k's start list are three filters on one list. The competition entry form template is kept with its shortcode, and the next year's contest starts from it with the dates changed and the fee re-run through the calculator.

Questions people ask about contest registration forms

Should contest registration forms take the fee on the form?

Yes, once the branch is chosen, with the fee shown before the card. A registration without the fee is a maybe, and the calculator says what the fee lands.

Can one competition entry form template serve three contests?

That is what the branch is for: the shared fields once, the contest's own fields shown when it is picked. The sheet prints fields built against fields seen.

What about the waiver on a race form?

A required agreement box beside a link to the waiver, on the 5k branch only. What a waiver may say is your attorney's question; the form records that it was agreed.
