Overview
Payment at booking controls whether customers pay online when they book, or simply reserve a slot and pay at your venue. You can mix options across different services.
| Option | When to use |
|---|---|
| No card (pay at venue) | Cash or card on arrival — no Stripe needed |
| Deposit | Secure the booking with an upfront card payment |
| Full payment required | Collect the full service price at booking |
| Pass required | Customer must redeem a prepaid pass (Team plan) |
Before you start
Note
Deposits and full payment require an active Stripe Connect account. Pay at venue works without Stripe.
