Installment Payments / Recurring Payments

With Superinvite's installment payment solution, you have everything you need to handle the following needs:

• Charge an amount automatically every day, month, or year
• Take registrations first, and collect payment later
• Split larger amounts into smaller amounts over a period

As soon as someone has been set up on a recurring payment plan, neither the club nor the payer needs to do anything, and all charges happen automatically according to the plan that has been set.

Here are a few examples of how recurring payments can be used in practice:

• After-school programs / academies, where charges happen automatically every month
• Training fees where the amount can be high, and there is a need to split it into, for example, 3 or 4 charges over the year.
• Gym membership – Charged every month until cancelled
• Fundraising campaign – have members, for example, pay 30 NOK a month automatically in support of the club.

These variables you can choose to set yourself:

• Interval type: Day, Month, or Year
• Number of intervals: Here you set how many charges should occur
• When the first interval starts: Here you can set a specific date for when the first charge happens, or you can have the period start when the first payment is made.
• Late joiners: In some cases, a person should only pay the remaining intervals if they join after the first interval has already been charged. You can also choose to have everyone pay all intervals regardless, even if they join after the first interval has been charged.

Everyone who joins after the first interval has been charged will be asked whether they want to pay for the current period or the next period. For example: «Per» tells his mom or dad on January 5th that he wants to start at the academy, but the first charge was set for January 1st. Whoever is paying for Per will then be asked whether they want to pay for the current or the next period. Here you should choose Current period, since Per wants to join in January. If Per were instead to start at the academy on February 1st, you would choose Next period.

Reporting

The order list shows all orders, regardless of whether they have been cancelled by either the club itself or by the person who placed the order. If a recurring payment plan is cancelled, the people it was paying for will be removed from all attendance lists. It is important to remember that there is a difference between the Order list and the Attendance list. The Order list shows history and finances, while the Attendance list shows which participants have actually been paid for.

What happens if there are insufficient funds on the card?

When it is not possible to charge the given amount, we will mark the order red in your Order list. We then try to charge it up to five more times, until the person ensures there are sufficient funds in the account. We will send an email to the person concerned each time we attempt to charge, letting them know they need to check their account.
