Payments

To receive payments from your players, activate the Payment feature.

You need now to define the settings of the payments; LarpManager has many payment gateway available, but each needs a different configuration.

You will now find a "Payment Setting" page in the Organization' management panel: 

First input in "Payment methods" the name of the gateway you wish to activate. 

At the moment, there are: "Wire", "Paypal", "Stripe", "Sumup", "Redsys", "Satispay". 

Once you have selected the ones you want to activate, come back to the same page. Click on "Instructions" on the steps to follow to configure each gateway. Please contact us if you need help!

After signup, player will be automatically brought to a page where they can select the payment to use. The accounting of the player, and of the event, will be updated automatically.

Please note that Wire payment requires players to upload a proof of payment, that the staff of an event has then to manually approve on the Payments (confirmation) page.

It will then be possible to review all received payments either at the Organization payments page, or the Event payments page.

Transaction Fee

If you wish to track for each payment the amount that is going to be withheld by the gateway as transaction fee, you can activate the Payment Fee feature. 

Now you'll find that for each Payment Method, there is a field to input the percentage fee to consider for the payments using it. Enter the value as a percentage number, without entering the percentage symbol. For example, to process a 1.5% fee, input the following value: 1.5

If you wish for this fee to be added to the player's payments, enable this option in the Organization configuration panel:

Additional configuration

As an additional configuration, in the Organization configuration panel, you'll find a section called "Payments":

• Disable change amount: Players are normally able to edit the amount of their payments (if they need to pay for a sum of 100€, they can instead change that amount to perform two payments of 50€ in two separate moments). Checking this option will disable this. 
• Unique code: this code, unique for each registration, will be added automatically to all payments. For example, a payment like "Registration fee of John Doe for Test Larp" will be modified in "Registration fee of John Doe for Test Larp - hR04SlbZOPXFzFx". This custom code will be of great help with the functions that automatically validate the payments, since it can easily reference them. 

And also in each Event configuration panel, you'll find a section called "Payments":

By default, the payment justification is in form like "For example, a payment like "Registration fee of John Doe for Test Larp". By compiling a custom code, you can personalize it; by inputting "Thanks {player_name} for your help!", the payment justification will be instead "Thanks John Doe for your help!"
