Many kennels now will accept (and prefer) Hash Cash payments via a mobile payment "App", or prepayment
of run fees via "dues". Provided below is a list of the kennels currently
accepting mobile application payments or allows prepayment in terms of "dues". Kennels
not listed, have not as yet made a commitment to supporting dues or mobile payments. Do
NOT wait until you get to a run start to set up your Payment App(s), you will need
account numbers, and will have to go through a verification process that can't be completed
in just a few minutes..
Kennel Name | Alternate Payment Methods supported |
San Diego H3 (SDH3) | SDH3 prefers run fees be paid via the "Cash App"
so that s/he (the hash cash person), does not have to be concerned with securing run fees
paid in cash, when they run the trail. If you don't want to enroll with the "Cash App",
the SDH3 kennel asks that you please bring exact change (they may not be able to make change).
Once you have the "Cash App" set up on your mobile device, run fees can be made to "$SDH3".
An additional benefit of using the Cash App, to pay your SDH3 run fees, is that the "Hash Cash"
person can better track whether you went to a run or not, since an email is sent to them
whenever you schedule a payment (SDH3 kennel gives awards for run count accomplishments).

Humpin Hash | Humpin Hash currently accepts cash (exact change please)
or mobile payments made via the "Cash.App" or "Paypal". |
La Jolla H3 (LJH3) | LJH3 does NOT accept payments via a mobile payment
app currently.. It does however allow paying for "quarterly dues" (covering 3 months of runs)
at $60 per quarter (subject to change) or individual run fees that cost between $8 to $10 per run
if a meal is provided. Hash Cash will also accept "checks" for hash cash
fees from "recognized" hashers (checks usually used to pay dues) |
How do I enroll in a payment service (App)
Most mobile electronic payment services require you to provide a bank account number and
or debit VISA/MasterCard number which will be charged, when you use their service. A few
payment services allow you to use a credit card, but those usually will charge you a fee
since the credit card companies do collect a fee. Can I trust the e-Payment service might
be the first question you ask, when it comes to setting up an account with an e-Payment
mobile service..
It is HIGHLY suggested that you do NOT provide your main banking account information, or your
regular debit/atm card to these mobile payment services. Instead it is highly suggested you
open up a separate account (perhaps with a local credit union) in which you keep a minimal
amount of funds, with which you can associate a debit card (usually a Visa or Mastercard).
Some services require a debit card number, other services require an account number.. Once
you set up this "isolated" account, most banks will allow you to set up an electronic transfer
from your main banking account to the isolated account.. Provided below is how to setup the
payment services once you have your "isolated" account..
Cash App
- Download Cash App to your smartphone.
- If this is your first time using the app, you will be required to enter a phone number or email login ID. Choose how you prefer to receive verification codes from Cash App. You will then be sent a code to verify your account.
- Verify your account by entering the code that was sent to you.
- After verification, choose whether to add a bank account immediately or skip it and do it later. To add a bank, you will need to enter your debit card number and name as it appears on the card. Please note that a credit card will not work.
- Choose a $Cashtag, which is your unique identifier in Cash App and it can also be used to get paid by someone. A $Cashtag must include at least one letter and a maximum of 20 characters.
To Pay with the Cash App, Do the following:
- Open Cash App.
- Enter the amount.
- Tap "Pay."
- Enter the Kennel's $Cashtag. ($SDH3 for SDH3, $HumpinHash for Humpin)
- Enter what the payment is for (enter your hashname and date)

NOTE*** - You can cancel an debit card once it is used, in which case the Cash.App account
will continue to operate, storing money you receive from other's using the Cash.app, and debiting
from your balance with them when you make payments from you Cash.app; You simply will not be able
to add funds from your bank to your Cash.app account if you cancel the debit card.
