Audience: Team admins, members with the FINANCE role.

Short answer: No action required. The notification just lets
you know a Stripe card payment has cleared and the player's balance
has been updated automatically. The Payments page already reflects
it.

What the notification means

• A player (or parent) paid their team balance by credit / debit
  card via Stripe.
• The payment cleared, so the player's bill is marked paid and the
  team's net is on its way to your bank account.
• The Payments page shows the row labeled Credit Card (used to
  show as Other — fixed 2026-04-28).

Why we send it

Before this notification existed, the only way to spot a card
payment was to refresh the Payments page. Now you find out
immediately — useful for confirming "hey, did the entry fee go
through?" before a tournament starts.

Who gets it

• The team owner, and
• Anyone on the team with the FINANCE role.

Both an email and a push notification to the mobile app.

Notes / gotchas

• Existing card payments were relabeled. If you check the
  Payments page now, prior card-payment rows that used to say
  Other will already show as Credit Card. The change is
  cosmetic — no money moved.
• The notification is for Stripe card payments only. Venmo /
  CashApp / Zelle / cash payments still flow through the
  pay-then-manager-verifies path and don't trigger this email.
