Collect Payments with Recurring Appointments (Booking Widget)

Updated

Recurring appointments are scheduled meetings or events that occur repeatedly at regular intervals, such as daily, weekly, or monthly.

 

Payment Options for Recurring Appointment

You can accept payments for recurring appointments on the booking widget with two options:

  1. Collect Payment for First Appointment Only
    • Payment is required only for the first appointment at the time of booking. For instance, if you schedule three recurring sessions at $50 each, you will be charged $50 upfront. The remaining payments for future appointments must be processed manually.
  2. Collect Payment for All Appointments
    • The total amount is collected at the time of booking, covering all appointments in the series. For example, for 3 recurring appointments at $50 each, a total of $150 is collected upfront. However, the final amount charged may vary depending on how many appointments are actually booked. This could change based on your availability and the settings you’ve configured for handling unavailability.

 

Note: Recurring Calendars do not support partial payments.

 


How to Set This Up

1. Go to Calendar Settings:

  • Navigate to Calendar Settings and select the calendar you wish to configure.

2. Ensure Recurring Meetings and Payment Provider Are Set Up:

  • Make sure Recurring Meetings are enabled (go to Calendar > Availability Tab) and your payment provider is integrated (check Payments Module > Integration).

3. Configure Payment Options:

  • In the selected calendar, go to the Forms and Payments tab.
  • Under Accept Payments, if recurring appointments are enabled, you will see options to Collect Payment for First Appointment Only or Collect Payment for All Appointments.
  • Choose your preferred option and click Save.

With these settings, payments for recurring appointments will be handled according to your selected option.
