ArbiterPay is a method to pay game officials automatically from a secure web-based platform. It incorporates a fully integrated electronic payment and reporting tool for officials. Currently, only two schools in Western Mass – Berkshire School and Williston – use ArbiterPay so unless you officiate games at either school you do not need an ArbiterPay account at this time.
