# Promotional Alerts

## What are they?

Promotional Alerts will send push alerts to players that have opted in to receive [tournament announcements](https://docs.scoreholio.com/player-profile/editing-your-profile/tournament-announcements). 

**Single Tournament Alert:** Players will receive an alert for a single tournament. Choose what tournament to send and we will auto-fill all the information from your tournament. 

**All-Tournament Alerts:** Scoreholio will send a promo alert to players with a link to all your upcoming public tournaments. Tournaments marked as private will not be on the list of all tournaments. Select the drop-down alert you would like and the location to send the alert from and Scoreholio will auto-fill the rest. 

## How do they work?

Players can customize their alert preferences, including the distance and which sports they want to receive alerts for, by updating their settings in the [Player Notification Center](https://docs.scoreholio.com/player-profile/notification-center).

When a promotional alert is sent, Scoreholio checks for players within their chosen distance radius from your tournament and only sends alerts to those who are within that range.

## How much does it cost?

There is no better way to promote your tournament. In order to send out an alert you will need to purchase a Promotional Credit. All purchases are final and are handled in the app store on your phone.&#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
PRO subscribers will receive 2 Promotional Credits per month along with their subscriptions. If purchasing PRO for the year, you will receive 24 credits at the time of purchase.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

You will need a [paid organizer subscription](https://docs.scoreholio.com/getting-started/subscriptions) to purchase promotional credits:

| Credits | Cost   |
| ------- | ------ |
| 1       | $4.99  |
| 3       | $9.99  |
| 5       | $14.99 |
| 10      | $24.99 |
