What will the client see during online booking payment?
It's easy for your clients to pay for appointments using Stripe when booking online.
When Stripe is on, a new small payment form 'Add payment details' will be added. The form includes these details: Name on Card, Credit Card Number, Expiry (MM/YY), CVV
When these details are added by your client and they click 'Pay & Confirm' the payment will be processed in real-time.
Funds will be sent to your Stripe account
Your client will be taken to the Confirmation screen with a successful payment message.
A client has paid for an appointment online using Stripe, what happens now?
An Invoice will be sent directly to the Client once they have booked and paid using Stripe. There will be no remaining balance for this invoice. The payment method recorded will be 'Stripe - Online Booking', you can report on this payment method in the payments report.
You will need to CONFIRM the appointment either by clicking on the appointment in the calendar or going to the 'Pending Bookings' screen and confirming.
After you have confirmed the appointment, the appointment will be marked as 'Paid' in the Calendar & Invoices screen. The appointment will also be updated to the Paid Appointment Colour if there is one setup.
