Why organizers switch
No ads getting in the way
SignUpGenius shows ads to your participants on its free tier. SignMeUp never does — the signup page stays clean for everyone, on every plan.
Built for phones first
Most people open your link on their phone. SignMeUp's signup flow is designed for a thumb and one tap — no pinching, no zooming, no friction.
Participants never hit a wall
No account, no app, no login. People open the link, tap a slot, and they're done. You stop fielding texts asking how to use it.
The pro features, without the upsell maze
Waitlists, capacity caps, single-slot-per-person, reminders, and CSV export are straightforward — not buried behind a wall of add-ons.
Switching questions
Is SignMeUp really free?
Yes. The free plan covers up to 3 active sheets with real features — reminders, CSV export, and a clean ad-free signup page. Upgrade only when you need more.
Can I move my SignUpGenius sign-ups to SignMeUp?
You can recreate a sheet in under a minute using a template, then share the new link. Existing participants just open the new link — no account or migration step on their end.
Do my participants need to create an account?
No. They open the link and tap a slot. Accounts are only for organizers who create and manage sheets.
Does SignMeUp show ads?
Never. The signup page is ad-free on every plan, including free.
