Event Payments & Family Refund/Credit Balance
<p>This update introduces (by default) the concept of Reusable Event Credit/Refund for any event with a multiple cost selection (1 or 2). If the setting of Disable editing was not enabled, then the users may edit their previous selection and will be allowed to retain any refunds as reusable credits in the same event for them or for other family members.</p> <p>When a member booked an event with a multiple cost selection dropdown (see image below) they can edit their selection with this new update (if it was not disabled by the admin for this event)</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/UpdatesImages/2025-09-12_13-48-36.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:229px; width:250px" /></p> <p>Once&nbsp;paid, they can change their selection and in this example be refunded a certain amount (the difference between the old paid amount and the new selection)</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/UpdatesImages/2025-09-12_13-49-49.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:209px; width:250px" /></p> <p>Then they can use that refund balance to reduce the amount for a second family member in the same event</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/UpdatesImages/2025-09-12_13-50-56.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:305px; width:250px" /></p> <p>Therefore they don&#39;t overpay, no need to cancel and re-book and the accounting&nbsp;doesn&#39;t have to worry about refunding an amount that would anyways be used for the same event for another family member.</p>

If you disconnect or logout you will not be able to book &quot;as the guest&quot; without the help of an Admin.</p> <p>To exit the impersonation once you completed your booking (as the guest) you simply click on the button at the top of the page or sign out and sign back in.</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/UpdatesImages/2025-06-10_17-35-13.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:70px; width:300px" /></p>

All costs are through your Twilio account and UnityApp will not charge you for using this feature.</p> <p>2. Each text message will use what they call &quot;Segments&quot; and each segment will cost about <strong>$0.0079</strong> or <strong>$0.00559&nbsp;</strong>if you have the non-profit discount.</p> <p>3. The system will bounce the message (skip) if the phone number is a land line and not a mobile phone. &nbsp;(A new phone field will be added soon to the profile of the users to avoid these issues in the future.</p> <p>4. Currently we only use SMS which means that any image you add to the message will appear as a link to the user.</p> <p>5. UnityApp and Twilio are fully compliant with the current internet privacy laws and therefore any user has the ability to &quot;Unsubscribe&quot; from receiving your messages by replying &quot;STOP&quot; to at least one message. &nbsp;To Resume their subscription they simply have to reply &quot;START&quot; to one of the messages.<br /> &nbsp;</p> <h5><strong>The future of this new module</strong></h5> <p>This module is the beginning for many more features such as potentially a Voice Message (Under analysis at the moment) and other carriers than Twilio which can offer better pricing and/or more features.</p> <p>We also will be using this feature as a 2-step verification for better security of the system and notifications in general (with the user permission of course in their own profile settings).</p> <p>We will keep you informed of any new development or changes.</p>

<h5><strong>Newly redesigned Payment Instalment Feature</strong></h5> <p>To give you more customization and flexibility, we redesigned the instalment payments feature in the event settings. &nbsp;The new settings&nbsp;are simplified and only need you to enable a few options to take full advantage of them.</p> <p><a href="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2023-11-14_07-09-42.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2024-01-29_10-18-57.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:268px; width:300px" /></a></p> <p>You can define the deposit amount to be paid immediately if this option is selected by the user. &nbsp;And you can define the fixed minimum payment required on a set frequency (Weekly, Bi-Weekly, Monthly, Bi-Monthly)</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2024-01-29_10-49-14.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:113px; width:300px" /></p> <p>When the user is at the event payment section, they are prompted with the option to either pay fully the balance due (for all selected members) or just pay the deposit (if you set it) or if no deposit is set in the event settings, then they are prompted to &quot;pay later&quot; based on your preset payment frequency for this event.</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2024-01-29_10-49-56.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:298px; width:300px" /></p> <p>Finally, when the user is alerted by an email notification after the first period, they can make a payment to each family member registered in this event with a balance due. &nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2024-01-29_19-07-23.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:158px; width:300px" /></p> <p>They can opt to pay in full the balance for each member, or the minimum payment (set in the event settings) or enter a manual payment of any amount above the minimum payment and lower than the balance due</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2024-01-29_19-07-43.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:325px; width:300px" /></p> <p>Once they confirm, they can review or clear the payments made to each family member and then proceed with the payment</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2024-01-29_19-08-06.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:283px; width:300px" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Election Module Enhancements
<h5><strong>Election Module: Manual Nominee Entry</strong></h5> <p>We have added some major improvements to the election module in UnityApp. For starters, you can now enable the manual nominees entry during your nominees selection.</p> <p>Simply go to the Admin page and the Elections Settings and enable the option</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2023-10-17_21-35-56.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:28px; width:300px box-shadow: -4px 5px 6px 0px #000000" /></p> <p>This will replace the member search feature with a manual entry window:</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2023-10-19_00-12-58.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:207px; width:300px box-shadow: -4px 5px 6px 0px #000000" /></p> <p>Another enhancement is to let the members have the ability to come back to the nominees page if they have not yet selected the maximum number of nominations set by the admin. &nbsp;The system will show them their past submitted nominations until they reach the maximum number.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h5><strong>Election Module: Single Voting Link</strong></h5> <p>One of the most revolutionary enhancement we have made is to allow the admins to generate a single link for voting! Yes, the system generates a secure encrypted link that cannot be recreated or used more than once which will allow the user to simply click and vote!</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2023-10-19_00-13-21.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:34px; width:220px box-shadow: -4px 5px 6px 0px #000000" /></p> <p>The system automatically sends the voting link to the electors list as before by email with the instructions,</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2023-10-19_00-17-43.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:52px; width:300px box-shadow: -4px 5px 6px 0px #000000" /></p> <p>The admin can also view and&nbsp;copy the link manually as well</p> <p><img alt="" class="img-fluid img_ckeditor ml-3" src="https://unityapp.ca/public/assets/files/uploads/userfiles/3a9d8c7d11e72793bb8c/source/Unity%20Screenshots/2023-10-19_00-13-36.jpg" style="box-shadow:-4px 5px 6px 0px #000000; height:105px; width:300px box-shadow: -4px 5px 6px 0px #000000" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
