Fees Collection
How do I collect fees?
Fees are collected through PayPal. So you will have to first Sign up for a PayPal Business Account.
Can I use your registration system without integrating to PayPal?
We currently only integrate to the PayPal system. If you utilize a different payment
gateway service, please contact us.
What if I don't collect any fees?
Not a problem. You can just create a new registration program without any fees specified.
Do I need a merchant account for my club to use Teamopolis and collect credit card
payments?
No, all you need to collect fees is a PayPal Business Account. PayPal will handle all credit card,
debit card, and online check processing.
Is a PayPal account required in order for registrants to pay?
No. People registering for your program do not need a PayPal account in order to
pay. We use PayPal for processing payments, and giving you the control to handle
your money.
Do you allow partial payments?
Yes.
Can you do refunds?
After we send the registrant to PayPal to make a payment, it is completely out of
our hands. You can then log into your PayPal business account and then issue a full
or partial refund.

Costs
Are there setup fees?
We don't have any setup fees, and there is no setup fee for registering a PayPal
business account either.
How much does it cost?
Its really simple. We charge $1 per participant. We work on a pre-paid credit system
with 1 credit equalling $1.
To get started, you will have to purchase an initial amount of credits for registration
(say 100 credits), and it will cost you 1 credit per participant as they register
on the site.
You are however, responsible for all PayPal fees for processing payments through
your PayPal account.
PayPal's fees consist of:
2.9% of the registration fee + 0.30 per transaction
For example, a registration fee of $100 would cost:
+ $1.00 (Teamopolis)
+ $2.90 (PayPal Processing Fee 2.9%)
+ $0.30 (PayPal Transaction Fee)
---------
= $4.20 per participant.
I have 1 parent registering 3 children, how much would it cost?
It will cost 3 credits plus PayPal processing fees, since each child is considered
a single participant.
Are registration credits transferrable?
Yes. Registration credits are pooled together, and credits are used up as participants
are registered. If you have unused credits at the end of your registration period,
the unused credits are applied to your next registration.
How is the PayPal fee applied?
Once a payment is processed through PayPal, PayPal automatically retains a portion
for processing and transaction fees. Keep this in mind when determining your registration
fees.
Does partial/multiple payments cost more?
We still charge $1 per participant regardless of the number of payments that are
made. However, each time a payment is processed through PayPal, you will be charged
an additional $0.30 transaction fee.
Doesn't PayPal offer rates as low as 1.9 percent?
Yes, PayPal does offer lower rates based on the sales volume of the previous month.
Here is a link to more information about PayPal's rates.
How do I sign up for a PayPal Account?
You need a PayPal Standard Business account in order to receive payments through
our Online Registration System. You can sign up for the proper PayPal Account Here.
