How it works

Simple, transparent, and performance-based. No contracts, no setup fees.

1

Athletes discover your race on Trehko

Your race appears on our interactive map, in search results, and in sport and distance filter results. Athletes searching for a marathon, gravel race, or triathlon in your region find your event organically — based on what they're actually looking for, not paid placement.

2

They tap Register Now and land on your existing registration page

We send athletes directly to your existing registration page — RunSignUp, Active, Race Roster, or your own website. Nothing changes on your end. We add a tracking parameter to the link so you can see exactly which registrations came from Trehko in your existing analytics.

3

You pay only for registrations that convert

At the end of each month, you check your RunSignUp analytics for Trehko-attributed registrations. We invoice you a small percentage of those registrations. No clicks, no impressions — only actual sign-ups. If Trehko sends no registrations, you pay nothing.

4

Your race data stays current on Trehko

We update race information — dates, distances, registration status, and pricing — on a monthly cadence. As your event grows and returns annually, it stays discoverable on Trehko with accurate details for athletes planning ahead.

Why Trehko

We built Trehko for athletes who are actively looking for their next race — which means your listing reaches people with intent, not just interest.

Athletes with intent

Athletes on Trehko are filtering by sport, distance, and location — actively planning their next event, not passively scrolling. That's a different quality of attention than any ad channel provides.

Pay only for registrations

No clicks, no impressions, no flat fees. You pay Trehko a percentage of registrations that actually convert. If we send no athletes, you pay nothing. Your cost is always tied to a confirmed participant.

You verify the numbers

Every registration from Trehko carries a UTM parameter you can see in your own RunSignUp or Google Analytics. No black box — you see exactly what we see, in your own dashboard.

Nothing changes on your end

Keep RunSignUp, Active, Race Roster — whatever you use. We add a tracking link and route athletes directly to your existing registration page. No migration, no contract, no setup work.

How Trehko compares

Most race promotion channels charge you regardless of outcome. Trehko is the only channel where you pay only when athletes register.

Channel Cost model Audience intent Trehko
Social media ads (Meta, Instagram) Pay per click — regardless of outcome Low — passive audience
Running club newsletters / local promotion Flat fee or time investment upfront Medium — general interest
Race calendar listings (RunningInTheUSA etc.) Free or low-cost — but broad and unfiltered Medium — browsing, not searching
Trehko referral partnership Pay per registration only — zero upfront High — actively searching by sport & distance

Questions

We discuss this directly with each race director based on race size, distance, and entry fee. We keep it simple and fair — the goal is a long-term partnership where both sides benefit. Email us to start the conversation.
No. RunSignUp, Active.com, Race Roster, your own website — whatever you use, keep it. Trehko adds a UTM tracking parameter to your existing registration URL. Athletes land on your normal registration page. Nothing changes on your end.
Check your RunSignUp or Google Analytics traffic sources for utm_source=trehko. Every registration routed through Trehko carries this parameter. You see the same numbers we see — complete transparency.
Possibly — we have 322 races across all 50 states. Open the Trehko app and search for your race by name or location. If it's there, we're already routing athletes to your registration page. A partnership formalizes that relationship and adds attribution tracking.
Running (5K through marathon and ultras), triathlon (Ironman 140.6 and 70.3), cycling (gravel, gran fondo, criterium, century), and trail running (50K through 240 miles). If your event fits one of these disciplines, your athletes are on Trehko.
At the end of each month, you share your Trehko-attributed registration count from your analytics. We send a simple invoice. No minimums, no retainers. If Trehko sends zero registrations that month, you pay nothing.
