With Stripe integration, when a member is asked to pay for their club fees, the Friendly Manager system will provide the payment gateway interface for members to seamlessly pay by credit or debit card for the purchases they are making. These payments are then recorded on their member profile.
After connecting Friendly Manager and Stripe it's simple.
You decide whether to charge the members the transaction fee or you can choose for the club to absorb the fee. You can also make payment at the time of registration compulsory or optional. The system is flexible to be able to reflect exactly your club needs.
It's that easy – add as many fee types as you like and Friendly Manager will allocate them to the appropriate club members. Club members can now see the transactions and fees that are relevant for them on the app, and you can also choose to send automated payment reminder emails.
There is no outright cost for Stripe for a club. Instead there is a transaction fee. The club can either choose to pay the 2.9% (+30c) transaction fee or you can pass that fee onto the member upon payment.
Stripe can also be used as your payment gateway in real life too.
For example when selling or renting uniforms, or selling club merch, you can track these transactions directly back to individual members and either bill immediately or create an invoice to be paid later.
No, not at all. It’s really easy to set up. All you need to do is have a Stripe account and then go in and connect your Friendly Manager account through the Stripe site.
Stripe is a payment gateway that millions of business use worldwide to track payments, automate invoices, send payments, and manage their businesses online.
