Cash, Credit Cards, & Checks

You choose the payment methods that your clients use for buying passes, plans, and products and for paying enrollment fees. For each payment method that you choose, consider convenience for both you and clients as well as ease of tracking in Pike13 reporting.

In Pike13, you can select to enable whether staff can record a purchase as paying with Cash or Check. To allow a client to pay with a credit card, you will need to set up merchant processing. Once you have set up a merchant account and it has been linked to Pike13 through Celero Commerce's (formerly Transnational's) NMI gateway, Pike13 will enable accepting credit card payments. For more information on Celero Commerce visit their Pike13 page.
