Patch art (PNG)

A patch is your art on every athlete's Fiz profile, kept for good. There are two ways to give them out, and there is no charge per patch or per athlete.

See everything Fiz for events includes, from entries and payments to live results and patches.

01

Add your patch art

In the Patches step of your event, upload your art. You can add one patch per division. Fiz checks new patches before they go live.

Option 1: codes on the day

Mint claim codes for each patch, with your own prefix, like COLD-K7MQX4B. Export them, or print QR cards to hand out. Athletes scan or type the code in the app to claim. This works with no sign-up on Fiz at all: an event with only Patches turned on is enough.

Option 2: given to entrants

If your event has Entry, Fiz can give every entrant their division's patch. With a leaderboard, patches arrive with each athlete's placing when you finalise the results. Without one, press Give the patches once the event has started. Anyone who links their place later gets theirs straight away.

04

Watch them land

Claimed patches show on each athlete's profile with a share card, and their placing updates as you publish results.

Common questions

How many patches can I give?
As many as you like, with no charge per athlete or per claim. Claiming is always free for athletes.
Can I give patches for an event that has already happened?
Yes. An event with only Patches turned on can be set up after the day. Send it for review, then hand out the codes.
Can I stop a code from working?
Yes. You can revoke a code or retire a patch. Anyone who already claimed keeps their patch.
What size should my art be?
A transparent PNG works best. The setup shows a live preview of how it looks in the app.
