> By Amit K · Published 13 November 2026 · Event Management · [Read on endurace.pro](https://staging.endurace.pro/blog/endurace-pro-vs-bookmyrace-race-registration-compared)

BookMyRace is the platform closest to endurace.pro: both are built for endurance events, and both are used by race organizers in India. If you are choosing between them, the fee is close, so the real differences are in the terms around it. This comparison is based on each platform’s own published pages, read on 12 November 2026. We are endurace.pro, so we are not neutral, which is why we show our sources and say where BookMyRace is ahead.

## What each is built for

BookMyRace describes itself on its homepage as an endurance event discovery and registration platform for India. endurace.pro is also built only for endurance events, across running, triathlon, cycling, hybrid fitness, trail, OCR, swimming, multisport, virtual, ultra and adventure races.

## What the organizer pays

**BookMyRace:** its homepage says “Payment gateway + platform fee at flat 6%”. It does not say how GST is treated.

**endurace.pro:** Your first event has no platform fee, though payment gateway charges apply. After that it is a flat 5.99% per entry with no other charges. There is no limit on participants, and every tool is included from your first event.

The two rates are close enough that price alone should not decide it.

## What the athlete pays

**BookMyRace:** its pricing-details page says that, depending on the event and organizer setup, checkout may include the ticket price, taxes, a convenience fee, a payment processing fee and optional add-ons. It does not say who pays the convenience or processing fee in each case.

**endurace.pro:** athletes pay the ticket price. We add no booking fee and no convenience fee.

## When you get paid

**BookMyRace:** we did not find payout timing on the pages we checked. If it matters to you, which it should if you pay for permits, medals and timing before race day, ask them directly.

**endurace.pro:** half of your sales can be withdrawn on demand before race day, and the rest is paid three days after the event, settled to your bank account.

## If you have to cancel the event

**BookMyRace:** its cancellation and refund policy says that if an organizer cancels, the organizer “may choose” a full refund, partial refund, transfer, coupon, deferment or another remedy according to the event policy. It also says convenience fees, payment gateway charges and taxes may not be refunded unless explicitly stated.

**endurace.pro:** if you cancel an event, every athlete is refunded in full, automatically, and no fee is charged on those refunds. Each person gets one email with your reason and their refund.

## Race tools

BookMyRace’s organizer page lists ticket slabs, coupon logic, participant forms, and tools to monitor participants, waivers, exports and check-in readiness. We could not find group or team registration, a waitlist, emergency-contact or medical fields, or bib numbers on that page. They may exist, so ask.

On endurace.pro, each of these is built in:

- Several distances per event, in km or miles, each with its own price and capacity, plus early-bird tiers and hidden tickets.
- Your own questions per distance, and waivers that keep the signed name, time and exact wording with each registration.
- Group booking with one payment, and a waitlist that offers each free place to the person who has waited longest.
- Date of birth, blood group and emergency contact on every entry, exportable for your medical team.
- Bib assignment and check-in per person, email to selected athletes, a CRM and tracking links.

## Where BookMyRace may suit you better

- **WhatsApp confirmations.** BookMyRace lists WhatsApp ticket confirmation for every booking on its homepage. endurace.pro does not offer WhatsApp confirmations today.
- **Add-ons and donations.** Its pricing page mentions optional add-ons such as merchandise or donations at checkout. endurace.pro does not offer add-ons or donations at checkout today.
- **You already use it and it works.** If your events run smoothly there, check its payout and refund terms against this list before deciding whether to move.

## Questions to ask any race platform

- What do athletes pay at checkout, in total, for a ₹1,000 entry?
- When do I get my money, and can I draw any of it before race day?
- If I cancel the event, who refunds the athletes, and who pays the fees?
- Does it store waivers, emergency contacts and bibs?
