Please Note:

• The annual Registration Fee includes the following: Annual Michigan/USA Swimming registration, One Short Course Team T-shirt, One championship  T-shirt (must attend designated Championship meet to receive), One Team Cap, and Short Course banquet cost for swimmer.
• Monthly debits will consist of the monthly dues for that month + any outstanding meet fees. Occasionally, a meet may be billed a month later.  In March, your online payment will include any balance due on your fundraising amount. Unworked jobs will also be debited following the conclusion of the season. Online debits are requested securely from your banking account.  We do not offer credit card payment options. There is a $20 fee for returned checks and unsuccessful debit attempts.
• All billed items are invoiced, and a debit request is sent to your bank (whose information you enter on our website), by Money Movers/Team Unify (our secure website hosts) on the 1st of each month.   Most banks post the debit between the 2nd and 7th of the month depending on holidays and when weekends fall.  On our website, the payment will post to your account between the 8th and 12th of the month if the debit was successful.  Until that time, your account will show a balance.  Debits are requested only on the 1st.  USSC is unable to change or adjust this date.  Please review your online invoice prior to the 1st of every month to review charges.  If your debit is unsuccessful, you will be assessed a fee of $20 in addition to the amount which was unsuccessful. Your outstanding balance will be due immediately and must be paid by check.  You may also incur charges from your bank.  USSC is not responsible for additional bank charges. 
• Online Payment failure: Two consecutive unsuccessful debit transactions will require payment by money order for the balance of the season’s dues, a deposit on future meet fees, prepayment of fundraising, and unsuccessful transaction or NSF fees.
