## League registration and payment, in one link.

Set your fee and waiver, then share one link. Players sign up, agree to the waiver and pay by card. The money goes straight to your league's bank account.

## Step 1: Set your fee and waiver

Add your registration fee and waiver for the season, then copy your league's registration link. There's nothing else to build.

- One link for the whole season
- Add your own waiver
- Set any fee, or none at all

## Step 2: Players sign up in minutes

Send the link by email, text or social media. Players enter their details and choose their position, on a phone or a computer.

- Works on any phone or computer
- New players get a BenchApp account
- Positions come from your sport

## Step 3: Every player signs your waiver

If you add a waiver, players have to agree to it before they can register. No paper forms to collect at the rink or field.

- Agreed before they register
- A waiver for each season
- Nothing to print or file

## Step 4: Get paid by card

Connect Stripe once and players pay the registration fee by card as they sign up. Payments go straight to your league's bank account.

- Visa, Mastercard and American Express
- Deposited to your bank
- No setup or monthly fees

## Step 5: See who's paid

Everyone who registers joins your league right away, with their registration fee next to their name. You can see who's paid and add other fees.

- No approval step
- Paid and unpaid at a glance
- Choose your league's currency

## Free for the league. Players cover a small fee.

Accepting cards costs your league nothing. A processing fee of 3.9% + 0.30, in your league's currency, is added to each card payment, and your league receives the full registration fee.

So in US dollars, a $250 registration fee costs the player $260.05.

- $100 registration: player pays $104.20
- $250 registration: player pays $260.05
- $400 registration: player pays $415.90
- 3.9% + 0.30 per transaction, in your league's currency. Examples in US dollars.
