All credit and debit cards are processed through Yale’s credit card/debit card portal. If your card is not accepted or you see the error “contact system administrator” there is nothing Yale Campus Recreation can do to assist as your card issuer is rejecting the charge or setup for continuous billing.
Typically, this may be related to an incorrect billing address. The billing address must match the address associated with your card exactly. (i.e. using st. instead of street, sixth ave. instead of 6th Ave.). If you see this error, we suggest you confirm the security address associated with your card.
