Frequently Asked Questions

When am I charged?

The fee is added to the player's payment at checkout and collected together with the entry fee. You don't get a separate invoice — the fee is already accounted for before the money reaches you.

Who pays the fee — me or the participant?

The participant pays it on top of your entry fee. You set the entry fee, Courtly shows the total at checkout, and you receive your full entry fee.

Is there any monthly cost or contract?

No. There are no monthly fees, no minimums, and no commitments. If you don't collect, you don't pay.

What happens with refunds?

If you refund a registration, the Courtly fee is refunded to the participant along with the entry fee. You never owe a fee on a refunded registration.

What about Stripe's payment processing fees?

Stripe's standard processing fees apply on top (typically around 1.5% + €0.25 for European cards). Those are taken by Stripe directly from each transaction.
