How Accept Payments custom feature works



1. A client goes through the booking process and presses Book Now at the end.

2. He is directed to payment system and unconfirmed booking appears in the admin calendar marked red as not paid to reserve this time so that no other person can accidentally book the same slot and there will be no double-bookings.

3. After that, the client has 2 options:
3.1. pay and the payment processor will send us confirmation that client has paid and we will automatically approve it on our side (booking will be marked with green color).

3.2. do not finish paying: the client is directed to the payment system, but then he closes the page, closes the browser, or simply leaves it open without any actions for a long period of time. In this case, the system will wait until timeout you set up in the settings of Accept payments custom feature will end and will cancel the non-paid booking because it was never finished. You can set the emails to be sent to client and/or you to be notified about the timed out bookings.
Same happens if the client paid, but paid later than timeout. In this case, if you receive a notification from PayPal/Stripe/etc. that client paid for the booking but as it was too late you can go to Reports -> Payment transactions and approve this booking manually.

What is "Allow delay payment" option

When your clients are transferred to the payment page after Details tab, they usually have several options: your payment processor (one or several) and Pay Later. Pay Later means that client will pay right on the place when he/she arrives to the appointment. In your Dashboard, when you click on the appointment, such booking in the service price field will have a note "Pay Later". If you want to disable Pay later option, set the switcher to Off position for Allow delay payment in the settings of Accept payments custom feature.

How to change the currency for payments



You can change the currency in the settings of Accept payments custom feature.
