Q. How do I collect payment from a buyer?

A. You can use Stripe as your collections method OR you can collect payment outside of RPGAuctions.com by using PayPal (or another service).

  1. STRIPE: To use Stripe, you must configure the Listing Preferences by going to My Account > My Account Home > Listing Preferences > Payment and Connect with StripeYou can also place a check-mark on Allow Instant Checkout; this allows the buyer to instantly complete the purchase on the listing.

    After Stripe is configured, you can manage your invoices in My Account > My Account Home > Listings > Successful or click here.  If you have Stripe configured, the pre-generated invoice will have a Pay Invoice link in the header.  Note: Invoices are created by selecting Create Invoice from the "gear" icon on your invoice list.
     
  2. PAYPAL: While on your invoice list, click the "gear" icon and select Contact.  This opens a simple email form.  When filling out the form, request the buyer's PayPal email and click send.  Another option on the "gear" is to click Create Invoice and the system will automatically generate an invoice you can send to the buyer's email.  Note: If you have Stripe configured, the invoice will have a Pay Invoice link in the header.

Q. How do I change the email address tied to my account?

A. You can change your email address by editing your account details within your “My Account” area.

Q. Why do I get a warning message that my selected username is invalid?

A. Every user must select a username for their account. The username can only contain letters, numbers, underscores, and hyphens. We recommend replacing all [spaces] with either an underscore or hyphen.

Incorrect: MY Username
Correct: MY-Username
Correct: MY_Username

Or, it says that the username selected is already in use.

Usernames are unique. Two users cannot share the same username. If you get a notice during registration that your username is already in use, you will need to select a different username.
Q. Why does it say that my email address is already in use?

A. If you get a notice that your email address is already in use when creating an account, it means that you have already created an account with us at some point. If you do not remember your login information, please enter your email address into the forgotten password form and you will be able to reset your password and log in to your account.
