With PayPal, you are able to accept secure payments, even with credit cards. The application process is fairly easy. You will need to provide your country, name, address, telephone number, email address, and agree to the PayPal user agreement.
There is a fee to use PayPal, which is $0.30 for each transaction, plus 2.9 percent of the transaction amount. The 2.9 percent fee could be reduced down to 1.9 percent if your monthly volume increases. For more details refer to the PayPal Merchant Fees.
To sign up for a PayPal account, go to https://www.paypal.com/ca/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_registration-run
Choose the account type that is right for you (Personal, Premier or Business). In most cases, the Business account type would be the most suitable for tennis clubs, as it will display the club’s name on the payment form. This account type will also allow you to receive payments from credit card.
The PayPal sign up steps are fairly self explanatory. Once you have provided your account type and contact details, you will need to verify your account via the email address you provided. PayPal offers you different ways to get paid. Simply select “My payment solution” to set up your preferred payment solution. You will be able to add or modify some information, such as:
- credit card statement name which appears on your customers' credit card statements
- create “Pay Now” web image buttons (if you wish to use these)
- options for blocking payments
- set up sales tax percentage (if applicable)
- add club logo to PayPal payment pages
- add club phone number to payment confirmation pages
- add a customer service survey
- add additional users to your account
- notification settings
- bank account information, to be able to transfer funds from PayPal.
