Online Payments

[Chris Fultz]

We use paypal for IRI and IndyRAGE payments.

Paypal has a good invoicing process where you can detail the charges and submit a single invoice with multiple items. When someone pays, it automatically marks the invoice paid. If they pay with check or cash, you can go into paypal and enter the payment.

For the IRI charity auction, we use Square. Easy to use a credit or debit card and you can provide a receipt by text or email.

All of these services charge a fee. I think Paypal is 3% unless the paying person has a paypal account they are using (instead of a credit card). 3% doesn't sound like much, but it can add up quickly. If you use Square into a paypal account, you get fees twice. We use these because payment is much easier for teams.
