A couple of thoughts....
My assignor has been using it for a few years now. And, he's getting more and more high schools to utilize it in the greater urban area where I live.
Most of the outlying schools that are smaller class and use a different assignor(s), still issue checks on game day.
I actually prefer game checks on game day. Done deal. Some of the ADs I talk with prefer checks on game day too because they are done with the whole thing on the spot. Refs are paid and they move on to the next business at hand.
The thing I don't like about the Refpay situation is that schools that used to pay by check on game day now tend to wait a day or two after the game to deposit funds to my Refpay account. Then, it can take up to 2 or 3 days for the EFT to hit my bank account from Refpay. So, it's gone from getting a check on game day to getting funds up to 5 business days later.
Not a huge deal, but definitely something I had to get used to when balancing my officiating book.
