In this guide, you'll learn how to add or update your payment method on file for RegFox, as well as how to view and print invoices.
If you’re using our in-house payment processor, Webconnex Payments, any registration and credit card processing fees will be deducted before the payout is made, so a card on file isn’t required to cover those fees. However, if you're using a custom payment processor or additional features such as the Communication Center, Text Messaging, Offline Payments, etc., a card on file will be required in order to bill for those items. Once a card is on file, it will be billed every 30 days for any outstanding charges.

If I am using Webconnex Payments, why do a I see per-registrant fee on my RegFox invoice?
A common reason customers using Webconnex Payments see a per-registrant fee on their invoice is due to the use of the offline payment option. Registrants who choose offline payment are billed every 30 days for their fees, which are charged to the card on file. These fees are not deducted from the registration before the payout.
Users might also see a per-registrant RegFox fee on their invoice when using Webconnex Payments if a user adds another registration to an existing order without charging for this new registration. This is because a transaction does not take place, so we are unable to pull the fees from the transaction and In this scenario, RegFox will require a card on file in order to bill for the new registrant that was added.
