- Q: Do I pay an online convenience fee?
- A: Yes, there is a non-refundable convenience fee typical of any internet sales, which is collected by Active.Com. Our average customer pays approximately $2. Each online registrant will pay the event registration fee charged by Agency plus a Service Charge equal to 6.5% of the registration fee plus $.50, with a minimum Service Charge of $2.00. If the registration fee is between $150 - $500, the Service Charge will be 3.5% plus $5.00, and for fees above $500, the Service Charge will be 2.5% plus $10.00.
If you pay online, the convenience fee is collected by the processing company and not the Village of Holmen, so the convenience fee is not refundable. The Convenience fee is only charged if you register online.
