Choose Yes or No for who pays officials on a game in New Horizon

Specifying the billable status of a game

Choose whether your organization pays the officials, or the team, school, or league pays them.

New Horizon Experience. This article describes the New Horizon Experience, which is available now. As of September 28, 2026, New Horizon is the default starting point on a computer or laptop. In the Horizon WebRef mobile apps for Android and iOS, New Horizon is already what you see. If you still have the older layout, choose Switch to New Horizon from the banner or your account menu. You can switch back to Legacy Horizon from that menu any time during the transition.

When you add or edit a game on Master Game Schedule, you set who pays the officials. In New Horizon that control is labeled Vouchered and/or Paid at the Game. Choose Yes or No. On the schedule the same choice shows as a Pay by Team badge when the answer is Yes.

For a fuller walk-through of cash games, school vouchers, defaults, and import, see Understanding the Vouchered / Paid By Team Setting.


Yes - team, school, or league pays

Choose Yes when the team, school, league, or another outside party pays the officials. The game is not billable through your organization and is excluded from your usual payroll reports. Use this when your organization will not handle the money for that contest and officials should collect payment elsewhere (cash at the site, a school voucher, and similar).

Edit Game on a phone. Options shows Vouchered and/or Paid at the Game set to Yes.

On a computer, the same control sits in Options on the edit window.

No - your organization pays

Choose No for the normal case. Your organization handles payroll for the game. The game stays billable in the usual way and appears on payroll reports so you can bill the team or league and pay your officials. This is the most common choice.


How to change it later

Open the game from Master Game Schedule and choose Edit, then change Vouchered and/or Paid at the Game and save.

To update several games at once, select them, open Actions, choose Mass-Edit under Update, set Field to change to Payment structure, then pick paid by team / voucher / cash or paid by your organization. For more on bulk edits, see Mass-Edit game information in bulk.

Changing only payment structure does not clear acceptances. Date, time, location, length, league, or game code changes can clear acceptances and notify assigned officials.


If you still see the older layout

On a computer or laptop, the older legacy layout appears only if you switched back to Legacy Horizon. Choose Switch to New Horizon from the banner or your account menu to return. That older layout may still say Paid By Team / Vouchered with Yes and No. The meanings stay the same.
