Payment through PayPal
-
Payment in Canadian Dollars (CAD) can be made on-line through the
PayPal, a subsidiary of eBay.com, at any of its sites:
paypal.com
paypal.fr
paypal.it
using a credit card or a PayPal account. The payment must be directed to REF's
PayPal account "reengineer@reengineer.org".
Note that you can pay by credit card through PayPal in CAD without providing your credit card details to ICST, IEEE, or REF.
Note that payment must be received by March 16 to qualify for early registration discount.
-
When a credit card payment is listed on the registration form, the credit card
charge in CAD is processed by REF through the PayPal service firm.
By providing information for a credit card
payment, you agree that REF may act as your agent in the placement
of the credit card charge and you agree to the terms stated on this page.
For security and fraud prevention, credit card charges are processed off-line either the same day or within a few days after your registration is received. You will be notified by email from icst@reengineer.org if there is any problem with the credit card transaction.
If you choose to use an American Express card, the transaction will be in U.S. Dollars (USD) at the closest equivalent to the CAD rate on the day the card charge is processed. This is usually the Interbank rate plus four percent.
Credit card charges now require that you provide the Card Verification Number (CVN) (sometimes also called CID) that is printed on your card. For Visa & MC, the Card Verification Number is printed on the back of the card in the signature area. For Amex, it is printed on the front of the card. These numbers are flat printing, not raised lettering.
Examples: Visa/MC Amex
Credit card charges placed by Reengineering Forum will appear on your card statement as one of:
-- "PayPal" with a reference of "ICST 2012 conference".
or
-- "PayPal" with a reference of "Reengr Forum".
Please advise whoever will review your charge statement that this item is your ICST registration. (Unnecessary disputes on credit card charges cause higher fees and therefore higher registration rates.)
Note that payment must be received by March 16 to qualify for early registration discount.

For security and fraud prevention, bank transfer details will be sent directly to the
registered attendee. You must complete your on-line registration to receive
the bank transfer instructions by email.
There is an extra 15 CAD fee for paying by Bank Transfer to cover the cost to the non-profit conference of receiving the transfer payment.
The payment must be made in CAD. All bank charges and exchange fees must be paid by the sending party. Be sure to instruct your bank that our bank must receive the entire transfer registration amount. No fees may be taken out of this amount. Pay any transfer fees to your bank separate from the ICST registration amount.
Since bank transfers take at least seven business days to arrive, registrations made after March 9 that are paying by bank transfer will be at the "received after March 16" rate. Registrations placed after April 9 may not be paid by bank transfer.
Registrations indicating payment by bank transfer are not valid until payment is received in full.
Note that payment must be received by March 16 to qualify for early registration discount. If your transfer will arrive after this date, the early discount does not apply. Transfer the higher amount for regular registration. Contact icst@reengineer.org if you have any questions.
Notes
-
Due to the international epidemic of attempted visa, entry permit,
conference registration, and credit card fraud, the conference and its
sponsors reserve the right to question any registration request and
only honor it on receipt of valid proof of active research or
industry participation in the technical field of the conference.
In case of any issue, the decision will be up to the registration staff
and conference organizing committee.
The attendee is responsible for any travel visa requirement to enter the country where the conference is being held. Failure to obtain a visa or other necessary travel documentation is not a reason for a refund of the conference fees.
Registration fees for the full conference include one copy of conference proceedings materials, one ticket to conference meals and social events and refreshment breaks. These items are not separately priced. Registration fees include any applicable taxes.
Whichever method of payment is used, make sure you include the name of the attendee.
An CAD 50 handling fee will be applied to all cancelled registrations. No refunds after Monday, April 2. Fees cannot be refunded for registrations canceled after this deadline.
Any substitution of attendees must be approved in advance by the General Chair.
Student rate applies only to full-time undergraduate and graduate students, not otherwise employed. Proof of full-time student status, which can be a letter from your department on university stationery, is required and must be provided promptly if requested by the conference staff.
As a non-profit technical meeting of the field (not a trade show), all paper presenters register for the conference and pay the applicable registration fee.
