Notts County supporters can protect themselves from losing money on season ticket purchases by paying with credit cards.
With the new season just eight weeks away, the Magpies are still threatened by the possibility of administration or liquidation.
On Monday, about the lack of progress with Notts' takeover and with the identities of those looking to buy the club.
An upcoming High court hearing on July 10 could see the club fall into administration or be liquidated over a £250,000 unpaid tax bill.
If the worst case scenario of liquidation happens, legal protection is available to supporters should they make season ticket purchases with credit cards, and card companies have no choice about it.
With purchases costing over £100, credit card companies are "equally liable as the retailer" under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act.
Whatever rights fans would have held with purchases from the football club, the buyers also hold with their credit card company.
Once a payment is made, the buyer enters into an arrangement to borrow, allowing them these rights.
At last count the Magpies has already sold more than 1,500 season tickets for their debut season in non-league with fans quick to show their support, despite off-field issues. Adult season tickets range from £276 to £345, with the lowest price coming in at £25 for under-12s.
