How to take deposits and let teams pay later from the waitlist

Unless you require payment, a team can submit its registration and pay later, and it still takes a place. You can instead keep teams on the waitlist until they pay, and let them secure their place with a deposit, paying the rest by a date you choose.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event.
• Both settings work with a price per team. See how to set prices.
• Deposits are paid by card, so your organization needs a connected Stripe account.

Steps

1. In your event’s planner, click Anmeldeeinstellungen at the bottom of the sidebar.

   

2. Open the Preise tab.

   

3. Set Erforderlich zur Registrierung to Nein, so a team can submit its registration and pay later. With Ja, a team has to pay before its registration is complete, and the waitlist setting below is hidden.

   

4. Set Teams, die später bezahlen, kommen auf die Warteliste to Ja. A team that registers without paying goes on the waitlist instead of taking a place. Paying takes it off the waitlist while its division has room.

   

5. Enter the Minuten, die der Platz eines Teams während der Zahlung reserviert bleibt. While a team pays from the waitlist, its place is held so no other team can take it. With 0, no place is held: if the division fills before the payment goes through, the payment is refunded.

   

6. To take deposits, enter the Anzahlung (% des Preises). A team can then pay that share of its price to secure its place, or pay it all. Leave it empty for no deposit.

   

7. Pick the Restbetrag fällig am date. Deposits are offered until that day. The creator of a team that paid a deposit gets a reminder a week before and on the day.

   

8. Click Alle Einstellungsänderungen speichern.

   

On the planner’s Anmeldungen page, a team that paid a deposit shows the balance it owes and when it’s due, and is flagged once that day has passed. What happens to an overdue team is up to you.
