Whiteknights Football Club has been delivering youth football in Reading since 1986 and is and FA Charter Status club. We have over 150 players and the club has always been run and administered by volunteers.

Collecting payments and subscriptions from busy parents is always a challenge and it can take a long time. Part of the problem is that it has pretty much been cash or cheque until now.

Thanks to iZettle we can now accept credit card, debit card and prepaid card payments for a fee of only 2.75% with no set-up costs or monthly fees. We can even take payments from an American Express card!

This new payment facility should speed up the process on annual subscriptions which is a clear benefit to the club, the parents and ultimately our 150+ players.
