Ways to pay for football tips

We offer several ways to pay for our football tips and other services. In this post I want to talk about each one in turn, listing some pros and cons and when that payment type would be right for you.

Credit / Debit Card

This is the most flexible option and only requires that you have access to a credit or debit card of some sort. You enter your details into our secure form and our trusted payment provider Stripe store all the details.

Pros

• You don’t need to sign up anywhere else
• You can cancel from our website without needing to contact us for support
• You can make use of discount vouchers we sometimes share
• Membership setup is automatic, you get access to the tips immediately in most cases

Cons

• If your bank or card company declines the payment we can’t give you much more information than that
• Some banks and card companies don’t let you pay for international services from them

PayPal

For a long time this was our only payment option, and is still the preferred option by a lot of our users. You enter in some details on our site and then get taken to PayPal to complete the purchase in a secure way.

Pros

• You can cancel directly from PayPal itself
• Setting up a PayPal account is quick and free
• PayPal is used by thousands of other online shops and services
• Membership setup is automatic, you get access to the tips immediately in most cases

Cons

• You need to set up a PayPal account
• If you run out of money in your PayPal account, it will automatically take it from your attached other accounts

Forms of payment we don’t accept

I want to wrap this up by sharing a handful of payment types we don’t accept.

• Western Union – Collecting money is a huge amount of effort and often simple things like small typos in the spelling of a name meant we couldn’t collect.
• MPesa – We would really love to accept MPesa but we can’t find a good company that would let a UK based website like ours use it without huge fees.
• Netteller – We tried to get an account before and couldn’t.
• Skrill – We used to use them but their fees were too high.
• Bank Transfer – We used to allow this but found it was too confusing for most people across different countries.
