Direct deposit, fast
Pay officials by direct deposit — funds typically arrive within 1–2 business days. No checks, no cash.
Official payments
Official payment software, built for officiating
Generic payroll and payment tools aren’t built for paying independent officials from your game schedule. GameSource is — pay by direct deposit from your assigning data, officials keep 100%, and the 1099s are handled.

What to look for
What official payment software should do
Tied to games & assignments
Pay from the games officials actually worked, so your assigning and payment data live together — not in a separate spreadsheet.
Officials keep 100%
Officials should never pay a fee to receive their pay. In GameSource they keep 100%.
1099s handled
The same payment data should feed year-end 1099-NEC forms — verified, filed, and made available to officials.
Why organizations choose GameSource
Payments that live with your assigning
Because assigning, payments, and 1099s are one connected system, you don’t reconcile a separate payroll tool against your schedule. Fund a wallet, release payments for games worked, and let the same data produce the tax forms.
