revSPORT FAQs

Australian Sailing recognises an individual's membership of an affiliated club by issuing an Australian Sailing Number. Current, active members of affiliated clubs will:

• Abide by the Racing Rule of Sailing 46 for person in charge and crew members.
• Be covered by the personal accident insurance policy provided by Australian Sailing

Clubs have the ability to set up their own season start and end date. Therefore to leverage the above benefits, members must be registered and current in a club membership season in the revSPORT database.

After an initial administrator has been provided with access they can grant access to additional administrators as required.

Administrators access centre/club/class revSPORT portals by logging in through a specific URL connected to their organisation. We ask you to save the URL in your bookmarks to save time when accessing your organisation's portal in the future. Only the administrators who have been granted access to the specific portals will be able to log in so don't worry about other organisations accessing your information.

Administrators can use the system regardless of whether or not they have set up online payments. However we encourage administrators to set up the online payment facility to provide members with an option to pay online if they wish to do so. Furthermore, the system can generate automated reconciliations for online transactions that leads to time saving and efficiency.

The money from the transaction fee is split between revSPORT and the provider of the payment gateway - Pin Paymnets.

Australian Sailing do not receive any money from the transaction fee. Transaction fee composition:

• 2% of the transaction amount + $0.60 to Pin Payments (payment gateway provider)
