Notifications that don't annoy
Push and email notifications for the right moments.
FishTourney sends notifications through two channels — web push and email — and tries hard to only send messages anglers actually want. Organizers don't need to be a manual Slack bot for their event.
Web push notifications
Browser-native push works on desktop and on iOS 16.4+ when the app is installed to the home screen as a PWA. Anglers opt in via a single browser permission prompt. Once subscribed, they get push notifications when:
- A catch they logged is verified or rejected
- They're invited to a tournament
- The tournament they're in starts or closes
- A payout is processed for them

Email notifications
Transactional emails go through Resend for the high-stakes moments: registration confirmations with receipts, tournament invitations, payout summaries, and disputes. Email is the backstop for anyone who hasn't enabled push.
Per-user preferences
Anglers can mute push at the browser level any time. Email unsubscribe links appear on every transactional email. Organizers don't configure these — each angler manages their own.
