Prize money allocation and credit notes
Prize money is allocated to the client account booking or summary in the form or a credit note. Once awarded credit notes can be applied to a client account booking or summary to balance the outstanding total (so that the funds can be used against the outstanding balance)
Once the results of a competition (class) have been reviewed and verified, prize money can be allocated through the “Prize allocation” button.
And you have the option to individually transfer prize money using the option”Transfer to credit” on the individual line or to transfer in bulk by selecting the “Transfer all to credit” option found below.
Resetting or deleting allocated Prize money
Provided a client account has not been balanced using a Prize money credit, you will be able to undo the Prize allocation. To do so, use “Delete credit transferred” or “Reset prize money allocation”
Using available credits to balance a booking
When a client account has available credits they will show on the Account summary section. Click to access and select the credits you want to allocate.
Once the credits are selected and applied, the Account Summary will be updated accordingly.
Applied credits can be reviewed and removed if necessary. However, credits can only be removed if the booking has not been balanced. Credits removed become available for future use.
A credit can only be removed if the booking is not balanced yet or if it has been 100% balanced with a credit payment. The credit will be reinstated back to the client account for future use.
Credits cannot be removed once a booking has been balanced with another method of payment.
Credits that cannot be removed are listed with a “More info” button which will remind you why this credit cannot be removed.
Example:
In this example, the outstanding payment is of £124.00 (Total of 124.00 paid and 10 paid with credits).
The system will show the booking history detail like this:

Organiser event summary
This event summary includes all the details of all the event transactions. It includes methods of payments, credits, a breakdown of fees and the VAT of the bookings fees you can claim back.
Refunds process - applies to booking and items
* Only bookings paid 100% through Stripe will refund directly to the client through the method of payment used.
Only bookings paid in full through STRIPE - refunds to the card used to pay this applies to the full booking or to individual items.
Bookings paid using Stripe + one other method - partial and full refunds will generate a credit on the client account.
Booking paid using any other method or a combination of methods of payment - partial and full refunds are always actioned through a credit to the client account.
Note: Based on the feedback provided by our clients, we needed to make the funds available to rebook or reuse this is why refunds create a credit note so that the funds can be immediately applied to another booking.
