PAYMENT PROCESSING

Whenever a payment is required as part of registration, the online form will automatically total the amount owing by each participant based on the selections they make.

Early bird pricing can be set up to automatically change at a set date and time and member/non-member prices can also be set.
We offer five different ways to handle payment collection. Event Planners determine the options available on their registration forms.


1. Credit Card - Real Time Transactions
When using this method for handling credit cards, transactions happen in real time. From the online from, participants enter their credit card information and click “submit”. Within a few seconds they know if the transaction is approved or declined. Results of each transaction are automatically recorded in the event database along with the rest of the information from the registration form. The event participant will receive an electronic receipt via email.

Real time credit card processing requires an online merchant account. The client has the option to open their own online merchant account with their bank and an account with a gateway company (a gateway company is required to facilitate the transactions) or use ePly’s merchant and gateway company accounts. When the client is using their own merchant account, funds will be deposited directly into their bank account. If ePly’s merchant account is used, the funds will be deposited into ePly’s account and then transferred to the client once per month along with a statement of transactions.

The main advantage of real time transactions is that it eliminates the manual processing of credit cards. The cost of automatic processing is made up for with the savings in labour and in the added convenience.

2. Cheque
This option works in a similar way as paying with cash except participants will see instructions about how and where to send their cheques.

3. Request an invoice
Some organizations may require an invoice before making payment. If this is the case, the event participant can select the invoice option and have one automatically generated for the amount due sent via email. The online payment report will show which participants have requested an invoice and how much they owe.

4. Cash
Participants paying by cash will see a screen showing the total they owe and instructions about how to make their payment after they submit their registration. These details can also be sent to participants via email. When the event planner receives the payment they can update the online payment report.
