And the money is deposited originally to your RefPay account. It doesn't make it to your personal bank account until action is taken.

Never said it wasn't simple. Still, the money is not in your bank account when you are paid as could be inferred by certain comments in this thread.

No but it can be momentarily. It really is easy and a good system. Do you like it or not?

I definitely like it. But it doesn't change what BBR said about the money not being insured or what I said about it not being in your bank account until action is taken by the payee.

I sign-in and manually do the transfer so there is no fee charged to me as the official. There is of course a fee charged to the paying administrator for generating my paysheet. The highest possible fee at this time is about $2 per paysheet. I'll add that I have been on both sides of this with RefPay. So I have seen all the fees charged to the paying administrator. I have contacted RefPay and advised them that charging the officials is not in their best interest. Keep the fees on the people who make the payment, not those who receive them. These people don't have an issue with it as it actually saves them money since they do not have to cut a check and mail it, which involves a postage cost as well as the cost of the paper, ink, and envelope, plus the time of the person who must perform these tasks. |

I chose to offer a different payment service on RefTown. It is a true direct deposit contracted out to a 3rd party. The money goes directly from the organization making the payment to the official's account. The money is never in RefTown's accounts and is immediately available to the Referee (after the Bank's normal electronic transfer delays). RefTown just facilitates the transaction. It is also cheaper for the organization than either RefPay or printing and mailing a check and it is free to the official.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm meeting with our board's president this week to go over our options, and present them at our semi-annual business meeting this weekend.
It sounds to me like RefPay has similarities to PayPal. That is, if you sell something on eBay, it credits your PayPal account, and you can decide where to move the money (typically, to your account). My question is, do some vendors accept RefPay for payment (like PayPal)? Camron, thanks for the heads up about RefTown. We'll check that out, too. Any other RefTown users?
