Merit Badge Fundraising, Simplified

BadgeReg is registration and fundraising software for Scouting merit badge colleges: organize classes, register Scouts, and collect payments online for your troop or crew.

No signup required · $250 per event plus $2.50 per Scout · No subscription

Everything a merit badge college needs

Purpose-built for the event, not a general-purpose ticketing tool.

Schedule without conflicts

Publish your class schedule with session times, capacity limits, age restrictions and prerequisites. Scouts cannot book two classes in the same hour, and a full class stops taking registrations.

Collect payments online

Families pay by card or PayPal at checkout. You do not need your own merchant account, and the proceeds are dispersed to your unit after the event.

Manage Scouts and counselors

One parent account covers every Scout in the family. Assign counselors to the classes they are teaching and give them the roster and attendance for those classes only.

Reporting and exports

Watch registrations and income in real time, then export your participant roster, counselor list and a full transaction ledger of every payment, refund and void.

Works on a phone

Parents register from whatever device they have, and counselors take attendance on a phone on the day. There is nothing to install.

Looks like your event

Your own logo, colour palette, custom FAQs, prerequisites, terms and conditions, flyer and email receipts, on your own badgereg.com address.

How it works

From first email to funds in your unit's account.

Tell us about your event

Get in touch and we set your merit badge college up for you, including its own web address at your-event.badgereg.com. You do not install anything.

Load your class schedule

Add your merit badge classes, session times, counselors, capacity limits, age restrictions and prerequisites. Run multiple sessions of the popular badges.

Parents register and pay online

Families sign up, add each of their Scouts, pick classes around a schedule that will not double-book them, and pay by card or PayPal at checkout.

Run the day and close the books

Take attendance, watch registrations in real time, export your roster and transaction ledger, and receive the proceeds after the event.
