How do you collect payment for your club's sports memberships?

A payment service provider (PSP) is an entity authorized by the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution (ACPR) to provide secure payment solutions. Its main role is to act as an intermediary between payer and payee, ensuring the smooth running of online or physical transactions.

Before choosing a PSP, it is important to consider the following points:

• 1. Ease of integration A good PSP needs to integrate easily with your website or information system. APIs and extensions make this easy.
• 2. Costs and fees : Fees may vary depending on the provider: transaction fees, monthly fees or additional costs such as currency conversions.
• 3. Safety : Payment security is paramount. Make sure the PSP has certifications such as PCI-DSS and offers fraud prevention tools.
• 4. Reputation : Choose a service provider with a good reputation and positive reviews to guarantee a satisfactory user experience.
• 5. Supported payment methods : A high-performance PSP must enable a wide range of payments: bankcards, e-wallets (PayPal, Apple Pay), direct debits, etc.
• 6. Customer support : Responsive technical support is essential to resolve any problems quickly.
