While you can import, or add entries into your event, the easiest and best way is to use Liveheats' event registration feature. The benefits of using Liveheats for event registration:

• reduces your workload - entries appear directly in their division which you convert to a draw (no need to import from another platform). If you use our rankings feature, entries will be automatically seeded
• powerful and feature rich - we have invested heavily in a best-in-class registration solution and partnered with Stripe to allow you to collect payments in hundreds of currencies
• better athlete experience - athletes get access to our athlete dashboard to easily view and manage their events, results, and more

This article describes how to set up and collect event registrations.
