RAMP & Merchant Account
If you require a merchant account to process online credit card payments, you can start the process of attaining one at the link below!
It takes approximately 5 business days from a completed submission to be set up with a merchant account from start to finish, and RAMP has a method to take registrations now and send payments through once you are set up with the Merchant Account as a stop gap solution. The Merchant account and its corresponding processing fees are not covered by the Softball Saskatchewan so each club will be responsible for their own account.
