Dues Payments

Subscription Members

Supporting the space by subscription is the easiest way to pay and easiest for i3 to process, which as an all-volunteer organization is an important consideration. You can pay monthly or yearly.

Automatic Subscription

• to pay automatically every month or year:
  • Go to https://www.i3detroit.org/crm
  • Log In
  • Click on "Plan" (Click your name in the top right corner if you don't see "Plan")
  • Scroll down to the "Membership" (below "New Payment Authorization") and click "Edit".
    • (If this is your first time doing this, you might need to click "Checkout" instead)
  • Click on either "Add Checking Account" or "Add Credit Card"
  • Fill in your payment details.
  • Hit "Save"
  • Click on the button next to your newly added payment type.
  • Choose the appropriate Monthly or Annual plan.
    • (If you were awarded a scholarship plan, it should be in the list.)
  • Pick a day of the month that you want to be charged on.
  • Click "Save"
  • You should now see all your choices confirmed!
  • Sit back and relax! Next time your due date rolls around, your chosen payment method will be charged.

To Pay-As-You-Go

Online pay-as-you-go

• No.
  • There is no good way to use a manual monthly online payment system.
  • There have been way too many problems in the past with people accidentally forgetting to support the space (but still using the facilities), and it's not anyone's job to remind people to support the space.
  • If you really can't afford to set up recurring monthly payments, either pay cash/check or ask for a scholarship.
    • If you absolutely must, you can use the One-time Payment button further down this page. It's really easy to forget though, so make sure you set a calendar reminder!

To pay by cash/check

• This works ok for yearly dues, but the CRM supports yearly automatic payments, which is better.
• Monthly cash and checks create extra work. Please use sparingly, if at all.
  • Place the funds in an envelope (found next to the black box near the front door).
  • Write your name and the amount paid on the line marked "Dues".
  • Put envelope in the black drop box marked "Treasurer".
    • It's a good idea to email Treasurer to let them know that you paid, so there is an online record of when you did.

Make a one-time payment

• Useful for paying back dues or missed dues
• NOT for making donations!

Using the Old System

• Use this button to make a one-time payment. It currently uses the old system interface.
• To use this, enter the amount you want to pay (where it says "Enter amount") and then hit the button.
• I've been told this looks odd in some browsers. We're looking for web help to pretty it up. Know anybody?

• When you check out, make sure you use the email you have on record. Check your account on i3detroit.org/CRM if you aren't sure which email you used.

Using the NEW system

• COMING SOON (use the old system for now)

When are Dues Billed?

• The CRM invoices on the 1st of each month based upon which plan you are on at that date.
• Your payment is billed on whatever you set up via Amazon or PayPal through FoxyCart, or via stripe through MakeAPI.

Donations

• For Donations on a one-time basis, PayPal directly to treasurer@i3detroit.org . If you wish a written receipt for tax purposes, please indicate this in an email directly to treasurer@i3detroit.org with your name and DONATION on the Subject line.
