Hey coaches
We are putting on a youth football camp in June. I was wondering, has anyone ever set up a link for people to register online and pay with a debit/credit card instead of asking them to mail a check? I am thinking that it would be much more convenient and might encourage a couple more people to sign up. We would need something that is easy to fill out and wouldn't require someone to create an account. If so, what did you use to set up the link? I do not want to use paypal. thanks

It doesn't help you with the Credit Card (although I wish I did have a solution to this) but it may help out more generally and could work for camp.
We have been using Google Forms this year a lot and it's been really good for us. We create a google form and have our kids fill it out with all their information. It populates to a spread sheet that you can use to create a database. We now have a database of our kids from current 8th grade all the way down into 3rd grade. If they have attended our workouts we have their info and can use it to send mailers/emails out.
You can email the link for the Google Form so it would work with the camp. Sorry I can't help with the credit card but hopefully google forms can be a bit of a help.

Option 1-Google Forms for registration, permissions, etc., w/ a Paypal payment link as an option for payement. Option 2-Active Network-www.active.com; costs a little per registration fee but makes it very convenient and helps you cover your bases with questions to ask, info, etc. Option 3-https://campregistrationsystems.com/ I haven't used them but I've attending clinics that use it and you can see several colleges use them for online camp registration.

Check with your school IT people. We use the same system that students would use to pay for lunches, school fees, activity fees, etc. We started using it last year, and it was so much easier.
