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.

And with mobile banking, I can deposit the check at half time by taking a couple pictures with my phone.

Halftime? Our crew does it before we even start getting dressed for the game.

I tried that once with my banking app cuz it sounded cool. It worked. But the funds were available like 2 or 3 days later, though, after verification. ho hum.

The best part is that I don't have to ever go to the bank.

That's definitely a plus. The check deposit feature of today's ATMs are pretty sweet, though. And, funds (certainly the small amounts we get paid as HS refs) are available immediately.

Anywhooooo....that's just me.

If I'm BillyMac or MarkPadgett, I'd probably want to go old school and actually stand in line inside a bank so I could ogle some single college girl.

Hey. Hot, single, bank tellers come in all ages. And some of them are hot, single, moms, just like we see at our basketball games.
