Referee Payment Information

If you have questions about the specific games for which you were paid, or if you officiated a game which you were not paid and believe you should have been, please contact the JLYSL Referee Coordinator at [email protected]

Use the "My Refereed Games & Payouts" link on your Sportlynx Referee Center menu to view pending and completed payments. If you are having any issues with your Sportlynx referee account or payment issues, contact [email protected] or call 855-778-5691.

Payments are processed through Stripe, in coordination with Sportlynx.  Our goal is to pay referees within two weeks of verifying the game report, under normal circumstances.

Bonus Program
​JLYSL operates a bonus program every Fall and Spring season. After 10 games referees in good standing are paid an extra $10 for every subsequent game.

For example:
- If you ref 0-10 games in a season there is no bonus
- If you ref 11 games in a season there is a $10 bonus
- If you ref 15 games in a season there is a $50 bonus
- Etc.

Notes:
- The games must be played in order to qualify for the program.
- The game count for all refs is reset to zero at the beginning of each new season.
- There is no upper limit on the number of qualifying games.
- The bonus will be administered at the end of each season.
- All previous club-level referee reimbursement programs are discontinued.

Special One-Time Bonus for New Referees
​In the past, some individual JLYSL clubs operated a uniform reimbursement program for new referees.  These schemes are replaced by this league-level bonus.  

JLYSL pays a one-time $65 bonus to all new referees after 6 games.  The bonus will be administered at the end of each season.

Payments by Stripe
JLYSL uses Stripe to pay referees, in conjunction with Sportlynx.com. This will ensure more accurate and timely payments with significantly less work for volunteer staff.  Game payments will be coordinated through a Stripe account you need to establish at Sportlynx.com.

Stripe, not Jack London or Sportlynx, will be the keeper of your personal information, so keep track of that password!

To create an account or login to Sportlynx, go to https://app.sportlynx.com/login.
