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 注册设置 at the bottom of the sidebar.

   

2. Open the 定价 tab.

   

3. Set 完成注册所需 to 否, so a team can submit its registration and pay later. With 是, a team has to pay before its registration is complete, and the waitlist setting below is hidden.

   

4. Set 稍后支付的队伍进入候补名单 to 是. 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 队伍付款期间保留名额的分钟数. 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 定金（价格的 %）. 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 余额截止日期 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 保存所有设置更改.

   

On the planner’s 注册 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.
