Customized Options

Customized Option with Preferred Vendor

If you have departmental funds and have a more specific need than uStore can provide, your department or campus group can contract with a preferred vendor that has a relationship with TouchNet/Marketplace. Your vendor will create a custom solution for you that allows detailed information to be collected while providing a secure on-line payment via TouchNet. Click below for a list of TouchNet’s preferred vendors.

A list of TouchNet Ready Partners

Your preferred vendor partners with TouchNet to ensure transaction security and appropriate integration with the schools financial system (Banner). If your preferred vendor does not already have a TouchNet connection with Macalester, there will be a one-time $1250 set-up fee that the department will be required to pay with departmental funds. For more information on vendors and this option, click the “Request more information on customized options” button below.

No Cost Registration

Marketplace can be a possible solution for a no cost registration event – depending on your needs – its user-friendly registration format, straightforward registration review and fulfillment steps, and customized, automated registrant emails can be utilized for larger scale or higher exposure events.

Alternatively, Google Apps provides the Macalester community with email, calendaring, and file collaboration. One Google Apps feature that easily collects no-cost registration is Google Docs

For information on Google Docs including a “Getting Started Guide” go to Macalester ITS’ Google Apps Information webpage.
