What parks and recreation software does for youth programs
Parks and recreation software runs the programs residents sign their children up for.
For youth programs, that means registration, payments, check-in, pickups and messages to families.
Bloomily runs summer day camps, after-school programs and preschools. Each kind of program is set up on its own.
How resident registration works
Set up your camp weeks
Each week has its own price and its own capacity.
Share your registration page
Your programs publish to your own page on a bloomily.app address.
Families register and pay
A family picks weeks, signs forms and pays a deposit. Or they pay in full, or choose a payment plan.
Keep a waiting list
A full week keeps a waiting list. When a place opens, the next family gets it.
Bill the balance
The balance bill is made for you, due the Friday before the week.
Camp day, from drop-off to pickup
Check-in at the door
Families check in and out at the kiosk with a PIN, or on their own phone.
Counselors on iPhone
Counselors check campers in and out from the staff app on iPhone.
Groups and photo albums
Campers sit in groups. Counselors share a photo album with each group.
Pickup people with PINs
Parents add pickup people, each with their own PIN. The office sees each one and can remove them.
Messages in each family’s language
Chat with any family in their language. Send one note to a whole group.
Payments and fees
Families pay online by card or bank transfer.
Payments go to your department’s own Stripe account.
Sibling and early-bird prices apply at registration, once you set them on the session.
The processing fee is 3.5% on cards, plus $0.30 on payments under $60, and 1% on bank transfers. A bank transfer fee is at least $0.50 and never more than $8.
You choose whether families or your program pay the processing fee.
Several sites, or more than one kind of program?
Tell us every program and site you run. Concierge sets each one up and puts the price in writing.
