Why not just a spreadsheet or paper sign-up?
Why not a spreadsheet?
A shared spreadsheet has no capacity limits, no reminders, and anyone can overwrite anyone else's row. MySignMeUp locks each claim, closes a slot the moment it's full, and shows everyone the live list — so you never get duplicates or an over-signed slot.
Why not paper or a group chat?
Paper sign-ups and group texts lose track of who actually committed. With one shareable link, people claim a slot from their phone and the roster updates in real time — no re-tallying, no "wait, which spot is left?" replies.
Why not SignUpGenius?
SignUpGenius shows ads to your participants on its free tier and gates features behind upgrades. MySignMeUp is ad-free on every plan, needs no account for the people signing up, and includes reminders, waitlists, and CSV export from the start.
Common questions
Can I cap how many people join?
Yes. The participant slot has a capacity, so you can keep the exchange to whatever size you want.
Does it draw names for me?
MySignMeUp collects the participant list; you'll do the actual draw separately, but you'll have everyone's names in one tidy place to do it.
Is this signup sheet template free?
Yes. Every template is free to use — start a sheet, share the link, and collect sign-ups at no cost. The free plan covers up to 3 active sheets with real features, including automatic reminders and CSV export.
Do people need an account to sign up?
No. Participants open the link, tap a slot, and add their name — no account, no app, no login. An account is only for the organizer who creates and manages the sheet.
Does the signup page show ads?
Never. Your signup page stays clean and ad-free on every plan, including the free one — participants see your event, not someone else's banner.
