How Do Participants Pay?
Each Organization can determine how they would like their participants to pay for items from their event(s).
Example: Stripe and Credit Card Payment
For items bought/won through the website, we will consider this example as using Stripe for Credit Cards processing and a credit card payment is expected from the purchaser/winning participant.
Online Items
For Online Bidding Type including Buy It Now Only Items:
- Payment is made after the item is closed.
- The amount is charged to the credit card initiated by the participant or through the event dashboard.
- If initiated by the participant:
- the participant signs into the website to view their account and pay;
- the participant uses the Participant Statements email containing a pay online link; or,
- the participant users their "winning bid notification" email containing a pay online link.
- If initiated through the event dashboard:
- an Admin user can use the How To Record Purchases option to Checkout By Organizer a specific participant; or,
- an Admin user can initiate a Batch Checkout. The batch checkout will process a payment equal to the outstanding balance for all participants.
- If initiated by the participant:
For Sale Items
For For Sale Items:
- participants do not have to be registered first;
- a participant record will be created if one does not exist (to track the purchase);
- the purchase amount is charged to the credit card when the purchase steps are completed; and,
- the participant can save their credit card details (checked by default).
