Automate your collections

Set It and Forget It Payment Plans

Configure your payment schedule once, and SquadTrip handles everything from there. Choose how many installments, set the due dates, and let automatic billing take over. Each traveler is charged on schedule, gets email reminders before their payment is due, and receives a receipt after each payment. If a payment fails, SquadTrip retries automatically and notifies the traveler to update their payment method.

📧Payment receipts for every transaction
Organizers who use payment plans collect 95% of owed payments on time.

The payment plans have made it so much easier for me to manage my bookings.
