Overview

Using the checkout/pay button allows you to apply for payments. On the side panel it says Check Out; on the order screen it's labeled Pay.

The payment options largely depend on the setup that applies to your business. So you may not see all the features shown on the screens we discuss here.

Applying Balance (exact change) & Partial Payments

You can easily apply partial payments by choosing the payment method, then entering the amount to apply.

Applying Rewards Points - Store Credit

When a customer has rewards points, these can be applied as payments toward the order. You will see a button that shows they have credit.

The type of payment depends largely on the settings management has set up. It's going to likely be that you have cash and credit options. If you have a customer assigned and they have store credit, you will see the option to apply store credit.

Auto Gratuity

Finalized Orders

Once payments are applied, the remaining balance is shown as zero and the receipt is shown. If you open a closed order, this is what you will see. This gives you an opportunity to reprint the receipt or void the payment. You cannot adjust closed orders prior to voiding their payment.

Orders can be voided in the following ways:

  • Payments must be voided first.
  • Items must each be voided prior to voiding the order.
  • If all items are voided, the order will have no value — it doesn't need to be voided, but can be.

Auto Gratuity / Auto Service Fees

You can have service fees of a specific percentage apply automatically to orders. You can choose what order types get what value of the fee — for example, in-house transactions can have an automatic 18% fee, and deliveries can have a 15% fee.

Item Type Setup

Go to Item Types, then find Gratuity. Ensure it is set up and enabled as shown.

Double-check the settings of the Item type and then move on.

Next set up the item in the catalog which will hold the value of the fee. Review that the values match what you require and make sure the type is assigned as Gratuity.

Cash Discount (Customer pays fees for using credit card)

Cash Discount offers two separate totals: one if the customer pays by credit card, and one for cash or other non-credit payment methods.

When a payment is made, the percentage applies toward the portion of the order being paid. If it's the whole payment, the full invoice amount will show. If it's a partial payment, the percentage applies only to the amount being paid.
