–          These can be paid by credit card, cash, checks, PayPal, square, thrnat<?>.

–          You may want to include a small transaction key if they use a credit card. Lisa suggested the phrasing for the surcharge. “Normal fees are $6.5 but a cash discount is $6.”

–          Transactions by credit card may include a 3% service charge in a also be a cause for the device that processes credit card might be a five dollar monthly fee

–          If you have members pay by PayPal there will be a transaction fee but they can process that payment to your bank account.

–          Free toast host: schedule and fees to be done this application. The product easy speak may have a similar capability. Check to see if it’ll provide an invoice that can be emailed to members.

–          Under club Central, under leadership, to be the name of the club this is where you can pay fees.

–          Bank: good to have a card from the bank. Keep all receipts.

–          Bank: to setup an account, it may take up to an hour. Bring with you two forms of ID.  Other signature the club signed the minutes to show proof of your office- ship. Call in advance what the bank will need so that you go prepared. You can ask what is required by calling customer service.

–          Review club packet. The new attack packets will need to have increased fees by October. You’ll need to go to the website to get the updated paperwork. As of this training is not yet available

–          Novak: maybe use a binder to document and hold everything.

–          If members do not pay by the deadline, they used to have a two-month grace period. That is longer the case. If members do not pay by deadline they can no longer participate in doing speeches and evaluations at the meeting.

If an account can’t be found even with the help of toastmasters, than set that person up as a new member. If they are a new member and you can’t find them called Toastmasters to get help.

–          All officers have access to all officer functions on the website.
