A pair is one entry with one fee. There are three ways to find your partner.
A doubles pair is a single entry. There is one fee for the pair, and one person pays it.
If you enter first, you are given a code. Send it to your partner. Your entry waits until they enter that code.
If your partner entered first, they will send you a code. Open My Panel, choose Doubles partner, and enter their code.
If you have no partner, you can ask to be listed as looking for one, and other players can ask to pair with you.
Decide who enters first. Either of you can.
The first player enters the event and receives a code.
Send the code to your partner.
The code works once and stops working when entries close.
Your partner opens My Panel, chooses Doubles partner, and enters the code.
They are shown your name before they confirm, so a mistyped code is caught.
The pair is now complete, and the fee can be paid.
Accepting a code is entering a tournament, so your partner needs their own account with their own player on it.
The age group applies to both players. A code is not a way around an age group.
A pair is one entry with one fee. If both of you pay, one payment cannot be matched to anything, and we cannot return it because the money went straight to the organiser.
If you have already entered the event on your own, use Doubles partner to accept your partner's code rather than entering again.
