MERC lets companies, running clubs and everyday people run their own private group. Set your own sessions, invite your members, check everyone in with your session barcode and track it all on a live leaderboard — everything in one app. Each group is run by its own Leader.
For friends, clubs and companies alike. No technical setup — just create your group and start running.
A Leader runs their own MERC group. Whether it’s a few friends, a running club or your whole company, the Leader sets up the sessions, manages the members, and keeps the group’s leaderboard and session check-in running — all from the app.
Create your own sessions and schedule. All abilities, all welcome. You set the pace and routine that works for your group.
Invite people to your group, see who’s attending, and grow your community — whether it’s friends, a club or a company team.
Show your session barcode and members scan it to check in — instant, accurate attendance with no manual registers. Can’t make a session? Hand the barcode to any member to run it for you.
Your group gets its own live leaderboard. Members earn points for turning up, keeping everyone motivated and coming back.
“A great group isn’t about being the fastest runner in the room. It’s about being consistent, being present, and making everyone feel like they belong. That’s what MERC is built on.”— Raihan Uddin, Founder, MERC
MERC works for any group that runs together. Here’s who it’s built for — and the qualities that make a great Leader.
Start a group for your friends or local community. Keep everyone motivated with a shared leaderboard and easy check-in.
Run your whole club through MERC. Manage members, track attendance and rank everyone on your own private leaderboard.
Give your team a wellbeing perk that actually gets used. Set up a company group and watch participation grow.
Every pace, background and ability is welcome. Groups run together so no one is ever left behind.
No paper registers. Members scan your session barcode — attendance and points are logged automatically.
Friendly competition keeps people coming back. Every group has its own real-time leaderboard built in.
Sign up in the app or on the website. Choose a personal account, or an organisation account for a club or company.
Name your group, add your sessions, and become its Leader. Companies and clubs can brand their group as their own.
Share your group with friends, club members or colleagues. Everyone gets their own profile, and you hold the group’s session barcode.
Members scan your barcode at each session, watch your leaderboard climb, and keep your group connected through in-app chat.
Got a local offer, event or product our runners would love? Put it in front of the MERC community as a “Local Offer” inside the app. Build your advert, choose how far it reaches, and pay securely online — it goes live automatically.
Reach runners in your city, across the country, or everywhere — matched only by the city and country on their profile. No personal data is ever shared.
Build your advert, pay securely by card, and it goes live automatically once approved. Clearly labelled as “Sponsored”.
Pay only for the reach you want. Pick your scope and category, see the price up front, and pay for the duration that suits you.
MERC is built to scale with you. From a handful of friends to a company with hundreds of staff, every group gets the same powerful tools — leaderboards, barcode check-in, group chat and member management. Wherever you are, your group runs on MERC.
“Every group starts with one person who brings people together. Give them the right tools, and a few runners becomes a thriving community. That’s what MERC is for.”— Raihan Uddin, Founder, MERC
