exposureBelow are some commonly asked questions about the Exposure Softball Events platform.
I have my own website, can Exposure Softball Events integrate with it?
We currently offer three approaches to integrate tournament information into your existing website.
The first approach is integrating with our API. This can give you the most flexibility. Accept payments and team registrations from your current website or application, along with displaying teams, documents, venues, etc in any format you like. This approach would require a professional web developer to integrate it or hire us to do it.
The second approach is the concept of widgets. These can be copied and pasted into any web page without the hassle of hiring a developer, but offers some flexibility.
The third approach is copying and pasting hyperlinks into your current website that link to reports found on Exposure Softball Events. These reports display teams, standings, schedules, brackets, and much more. Once copied and pasted into your website any changes you make will be reflected in the report. This approach is the easiest but offers the least flexibility.
