Before you start
You need to connect your Stripe account before you can collect payments. If Stripe isn’t connected, players will see an error at checkout.
Set a registration fee
When creating or editing an event, set:
- Price — the amount in dollars (e.g.
75 for $75.00)
- Payment mode — charge per player or per team
Leave the price as 0 for free events — players can still register without needing a payment method.
Payment modes
| Mode | How it works |
|---|
| Per player | Each player pays individually when registering |
| Per team | The team captain pays a single fee for the whole team |
Per-team pricing works well for leagues where teams register together. Per-player pricing is better for individual sign-ups where players join teams after registering.
How players pay
Players pay via Stripe Checkout during registration. Fieldday supports all major credit and debit cards. Payment is processed immediately — players receive a confirmation email from Stripe.
View payments
Go to Admin → Events → [Your event] → Registrations to see each registration and its payment status:
- Paid — payment was successful
- Pending — registration submitted but payment not yet completed
- Failed — payment attempt failed
- Manual — marked as paid manually by an admin (e.g. cash payment)
Mark a payment as manual
If a player pays by cash or e-transfer, you can mark their registration as paid manually:
- Go to Registrations
- Find the player
- Click Mark as paid
Refunds
Refunds are issued through your Stripe dashboard — go to Payments, find the transaction, and click Refund. Fieldday doesn’t currently support refunds directly from the admin panel.
