What is Samkoma car show registration software?
An event operations engine for car shows — online registration, multi-vehicle entries, card and cash payments, QR check-in, People's Choice and judged voting, and end-of-day reconciliation in one system.
Can entrants register more than one vehicle?
Yes. Each entrant adds multiple vehicles in a single registration with a live running total, and gets a check-in QR code by email and SMS.
How does check-in work on show day?
Volunteers scan each entrant's QR code, tie it to their assigned vehicle number, and hand off welcome bags — no paper lists and no double check-ins.
Is Samkoma self-hosted?
Yes. Samkoma is delivered as a codebase you self-host, so you own your data, payment provider and infrastructure. Pricing is custom — contact sales.
