You will find this weeks’ update on all events below, but always check our calendar first ….
An important change to the refund policy for Region events.
Effective April 11, 2023, ClubRegistration.net will no longer return processing fees to the Club/Event Host when issuing refunds.
Our service provider (Square, Inc.) is conforming to industry standards and not returning fees on refunds to their customers. This is occurring industry wide and have experienced this with our previous provider. That, in part, led to our decision to recently switch processors to Square. It seems avoiding that cost is no longer an option.
What does this mean for you? If your decision is to cancel your participation in an event after payment, your refund will be credited to you minus the Square fee, which is around 5%.
Additional information for all these events at a lot more is on our Calendar, at “hcrpca.org“.
