Side 1: What's New & What's Coming

Accounts


  • An update to the "Submit & Add Account Member" verbiage within the button on the Create Account page on the public side now reads "Add Additional Account Member" for clarity.


Activities


  • You can export rosters from your MyRec.com system and import them into CampDoc*. This allows you to centralize camper health forms and improve safety, compliance, and operational efficiency. Read all about it in our Knowledge Base article. *Please note that CampDoc is not a direct integration with MyRec.com. Additional fees and setup are done directly with CampDoc.


Memberships


  • New clarifying text has been added when Extending the length of a customer's active Membership. The new text reads “The following memberships will be extended by X Days. This will not create a balance due nor draft a payment”.
  • You can order your Membership Cards here.


Emails & Text Blasts


  • As a client of MyRec.com, you have access to use Constant Contact at a discounted rate for all your email marketing needs. Reach out at our Partner referral link.


Misc


  • Admin users can now request activation of the mobile app directly from Subscriber Settings > Resources. Simply select the Activate App Request link to get started.
  • Home Page (Public Side) Hard Coded Icons are now customizable.
  • UI (User Interface) Updates - Fixes to the mobile/tablet view for the facility list, activity search, and advanced activities list are currently underway. The desktop view is done, but mobile view is still in progress.
  • Whether you're brand new to MyRec.com or just need a refresher on specific features, the Onboarding Academy is a valuable resource and accessible anytime.



* Please note that new fixes will only be found on your management side dashboard under View System Updates. This newsletter will highlight new updates only.*



What's Coming!!


  • PUSH NOTIFICATIONS! - Phase 2 of the Progressive Web App - Within the PWA, you will be able to send push notifications to your customers. Our initial testing has sent notifications successfully to iPhones & Androids! Check out the article below and request your Department's Public-Side Web App today.
  • Check In & Out with Code - When enabled, this setting lets registrants add approved pickup persons to any registered activity—simply enter each person's name, email, and/or cell phone, and a unique code is instantly sent to them by email or text. Take summer camp: when a parent registers their child, they can list Grandma and the family babysitter as approved pickups, and each approved person gets their own personal code. At pickup time, the approved person types their code right into the Digital Sign In & Out Sheet, so kids are only ever released to the right people. Codes are delivered automatically based on registration process: right when the activity is registered on the public side, immediately when staff creates the registration on the management side, or the moment a waitlisted registrant gets their spot. Peace of mind for parents, accountability for your staff, and a safer experience for everyone.

Stay tuned for a special webinar on this new and exciting feature!

The cloning feature takes the work out of complex program creation and annual programming by allowing your department to copy existing activities and programs with the bonus of advancing the dates, when needed!
