Overview

Teampay is a Game Payments product that allows team payments to be made electronically by participants on a game by game basis instead of paying upfront for the whole season.

It is typically associated with social sport where participants don’t necessarily play every week and therefore enabling a team to pay each game creates far more flexibility for the Team Organisers/Managers to attract players.

PlayHQ have integrated with Teampay to display a game’s payment status via the electronic scoring application, prior to the game starting.

The Game Payments feature will be available for associations who use a game payments provider (currently only Teampay). The feature can be turn on or off at a tenant level.

 

Teampay Quickstart

For Players

Teampay have developed a quickstart guide to help participants easily setup Teampay. For more how-to resources for Teampay, visit their resource hub.

For Organisations

If your Association is interested in utilising all the benefits of Teampay, you can book a demonstration here.

 

Payment Types

Teampay has two payment types, which we approach slightly differently:

• Per Team – A fixed amount for the entire team. For this payment type, PlayHQ will display either Paid or Unpaid for the team.
  
  
• Per Player – Each player pays separately. For this payment type, PlayHQ will display the numbers of players paid. If the number of players paid is 0 then the overall payment status is Unpaid, if 1 or more have paid then the overall payment status is Paid.

 

Features

The following features have been implemented:

Admin Portal

• Ability to turn the feature on or off at a tenant level.
• If the Association has a valid contract with a game payments provider, ability to turn Game Payments on or off at a Grade Default level (in a Competition’s settings).
• If the Association has a valid contract with a game payments provider, ability to turn Game Payments on or off at a Grade’s settings level.
