Overview:
This article will discuss the process of creating a payment request outside of the registration flow. This functionality provides Administrators, both in Clubs and Associations, with the flexibility to initiate payment requests on an as needs basis.
Creating a Payment Request in PlayHQ:
Administrators in PlayHQ can easily initiate payment requests, enabling payments to be made directly without the need for registration. This feature is invaluable for scenarios such as game fees, forfeit fees, interleague fees, tournament fees, event payments and incident fines, where immediate payment is required.
Steps to Create a Payment Request:
1. Log in to the Admin Portal
2. Navigate to Products
3. Select Payment Requests
4. Click on Add Payment Request
5. Fill out the Payment Request details, including:
Purpose of the Payment Request, Description Due Date choose visibility: Visible or Hidden
After creation, you will find a list of all active payment requests displayed in list format.
How to distribute the payment request to a participant
To distribute the payment request to a participant, a unique payment request URL is generated and accessible once the Payment request is created, as well as from the Payment Request list. Simply copy this link and distribute it using your organisation's preferred communication method.
How to Run a Report:
To view the details of each payment request, navigate to Products > Orders.
Additionally, you can generate an Orders Report to track or report on payment requests. Alternatively, running a Transaction Report will list all purchases associated with payment requests.
