Payments

There are several ways in which you can pay your registration fees for the club, teams, or special events.  We are also flexible with payment plans should that be helpful.  The general rule is that payments are normally made at registration or at least two weeks before starting the applicable event.  You must also ensure that any event attended (practice or regatta) is paid for before attending (IE. never being in a deficit).  All payments, regardless of method, will be acknowledged in writing via email.  We pride ourselves in keeping our fees as low as possible as this is your hard-earned money!  Payment methods include... 


1. Interac online email transfer to "PayTim @ RustyDragons.ca".  

This is the preferred method for all payments as it is secure, almost immediate, and includes audit trails for both sides.  Please always include a comment in the transfer that identifies the person it is for as well as what it is for specifically.  Note that this email address is auto-deposit - meaning you don't need to set a deposit password.  Note that we are in the middle of a banking change, hence the temporary change from the previous Payments@ to PayTim@.  In the end it all goes to the same place (club). 


2. Cheque to "Rusty Dragons Adventures".

The cheque (cheques if any post-dated) can be mailed to: Rusty Dragons, 2899-A Danforth Ave, Toronto, ON, M4C 1M3.


3. Cash in Person.

You may arrange with the club or team to pay cash in person (do not mail cash).


4. PayPal (Online invoice you can pay via credit/debit card).

Should you want to pay by debit or credit card from home, let the club know and a PayPal invoice will be generated and emailed to you.  Note that there is a service charge for this that is from PayPal and out of our hands (2.9% + $0.30).  This is okay for small payments but we generally don't want members paying too much for larger amounts.  The service charge will be added to the invoice so you can see the actual total.  For example, the PayPal service charge for $50.00 is $1.75, while the service charge for $475 is $14.08.  Use this method ony if you accept the added service charge.


5. Point Of Sale (POS) device (In-person device you can pay via credit/debit card).

Should you want to pay by debit or credit card in person, let the club know and it can be arranged.  Normally we will bring this device (same kind of device used at a business like Tim Hortons) to events and first practices.  Note that there is a service charge for this that is from the POS vendor and out of our hands (2%).  Again, this is okay for small payments but we generally don't want members paying too much for larger amounts.  The service charge will be added to the amount due so you can see the actual total.  For example, the PayPal service charge for $50.00 is $1.00, while the service charge for $475 is $9.50.  Use this method ony if you accept the added service charge.


Payments can also be made in other currencies (like USD) when that option and specific cost is provided for an event in the USA (like Florida Training Camp or Puerto Rico Dragon Boat Festival).
