Integration with RefAssist - the next generation of referee admin platform

REFSIX are delighted to announce a partnership and integration with RefAssist - the world leader in referee administration. They are specialists in automating processes that take up vast amounts of time for referees, development officers and appointees. From FIFA to the Royal Belgian Football Association, RefAssist is a trusted partner around the world.

REFSIX has integrated with RefAssist so that associations and leagues can send games directly to referees within our app. Referees can also close dates and accept and decline games. Best of all - sending match reports is as easy as pressing a button. The association or league gets results, subs, cards… everything. For the referee, it reduces the amount of paperwork and time spent on admin. If you’re a referee and would like your league to use the RefAssist/REFSIX integration, put them in touch with us today.

Using their unique algorithm they save associations time and money. In the long run, they help keep referees happy and reduce the burden on officials to enable them to get on with refereeing. Other features of the RefAssist platform include:

  • Automated appointments

  • Mileage calculator

  • Reporting

  • Notifications

  • Finances

  • Courses and training

  • Registration

  • Awards

  • Self-appointing

  • Tournaments and cups

We believe this partnership will increase the retention rate of referees who will enjoy the double benefits of easier match administration and career tracking that this new integration provides. The combination of REFSIX and RefAssist is truly innovative - there is nothing out there on the market that compares. It puts control back into the hands of referees and administrators, no matter what the size of the association or league.

Here’s more about this partnership from RefAssist’s CEO Dieter De Naeyer:

“Thus far, we haven’t been able to offer a native app, yet lately we’ve come to see that this was becoming increasingly more important to referees. Having RefSix as a partner is a substantial step forward since we can now offer their N°1 referee app to our clients. Our new partner’s referee data is invaluable for all referee managers. RefSix will henceforth be able to include appointments and push notifications in their app. This partnership portrays a great innovation for both sides, but mainly for referees and referee managers.”

Our CEO Hassan Rajwani had this to say:

'Our mission is to make refereeing as easy and enjoyable as possible. For our users, this has meant delivering a top-class user experience and simplified administration. The partnership with RefAssist enables us to deliver these benefits at a national, regional and association level. Referees will be able to send match reports at the touch of a button, giving them more time to enjoy the game they love, and giving associations accurate match data in return.'

Now that the initial integration between REFSIX and RefAssist has been completed, we’ll be working on even more exciting features that will further enhance the experience for our users.
