Setup Guide

Using CrowdChange, connecting your activity tracker and more.

How to connect to Strava

Quickly connect your Strava account and, once enabled, all supported data from your Strava activities (going forward) is automatically transferred to your CrowdChange Activity Tracker.

Starting May 1, you’ll be able to connect your Strava account and track your activity. Until then, the Activity Tracker options won’t appear in your CrowdChange settings.

We’ll send a reminder email the day before the challenge begins, so you can link your Strava account and begin tracking your activity on May 1.

In CrowdChange, go to your Participant Center by selecting the button at the top of your screen.

Select the Personal Pages tab under your name.

Select your specific personal page tile.

Scroll down to the Activity Tracker section (Your Current Activity will be shown) and select Manage Activity.

On your Activity Tracker Dashboard, select Connect with Strava.

You will be redirected to Strava’s website to log into your Strava account.

Allow CrowdChange to connect with your Strava account.

Select Authorize and you will be redirected back to CrowdChange showing your activity tracker connected.

Once successfully connected, recorded activity with Strava is automatically transferred to your CrowdChange Activity Tracker.

Having issues connecting your Strava account to CrowdChange? Search the CrowdChange Help Center or contact the CrowdChange support team for help.
