PREREQUISITES
To use SafeSave as your payment provider in CourtReserve, you’ll first need to create a SafeSave payment account.
SETUP
Once your SafeSave account is active, you’ll receive an email with a link to set your password and complete your account setup.
For questions about payment integration, pricing, or enrollment, you can schedule a time to speak with SafeSave’s Account Manager, Chris Peter, here.
Note for SafeSave Users Integrated Before October 2024:
As of October 2024, new SafeSave integrations include both an API Key and a Public Key field. However, if your organization integrated with SafeSave prior to this date, you will only see the API Key field in your setup.
In this article
FIND YOUR PRIVATE & PUBLIC SECURITY KEYS VIA SAFESAVE
Log in to SafeSave and generate your API key by going to Options > Settings > Security Keys.
Two keys will need to be added to successfully to integrate your account:
Private Security Key
Public Security Key
Both keys can be generated from the Security Keys page.
For your Private Security Key, click Add a New Private Key. Add your Key Name, the Username Associated with the key, and check API. From there, your Private Security Key (Api Key) will be generated.
For your Public Security Key, click Add a New Public Key. Add your Key Name, the Username Associated with the key, and then select Tokenization as the Key Permission. From there, your Public Security Key (Public Key) will be generated.
When each key is created, copy and paste the series of numbers into the Integrated Payments Settings in CourtReserve as indicated in the next section of this article.
INPUT YOUR SECURITY KEYS IN COURTRESERVE

SafeSave Failed eChecks
eCheck Returns:
If a player's eCheck payment fails and is returned, both the player and the admin will receive email notifications. When this occurs, CourtReserve will automatically reverse the payment, and any associated fees will be marked as Unpaid.
Late Returns:
If an eCheck is returned after it has already been marked as Settled, CourtReserve will not automatically revert the payment. In these cases, the admin must manually revert the payment. Doing so will update the associated fees to Unpaid, allowing a new payment to be collected.
