The plugin is awesome. For me the best plugin on the market and endless possibilities however there is one huge hole in the plugin.
Most booking websites like beauty sector require deposit upon booking because so many customers are booking and not showing up, and this feature is not available here.
For you this is a few lines of code and this feature can be added, so my huge request is can you add this useful feature to the Settings/payments tab so we can turn it on and off if we need ?
For my business I will need to have switch on and off, possibility to set deposit percentage or amount and this will need to be not depended of payment type so whatever way customer will choose ON SITE or by Card, PayPal they need to always pay deposit to book their visit.
Actually it will be better to add this to the service tap so separate services can have own settings, but you will know the best how to implement this in the best possible way.
I will be super happy if you could spend some time and implement this useful feature as it will benefit your business too. Many customers are looking for this type of feature and they not buying because it is simple not available.
Glad to hear that you like our plugin and we completely understand your situation.
We follow our customers requests and unfortunately there are higher prioritized features then deposit payments.
At the moment, the most requested features are Event booking, Front end booking cabinet and recurring option.
Event booking is in development stage and after it is finished the other 2 features will be on the top of the list.
Also the deposit payment and packages options are also one of the common requested features so surely this will be something that will be available in our plugin for future updates.
But for now we can not change the plan of the development.
Thank you for your fast replay. Sad news for me :(
I'm glad you guys are implementing more features I'm looking forward to see them.
I know that this is hard question to answer but could you roughly estimate when the deposit feature could be implemented ? I mean in one week ? :D One month or year ? Just roughly to let me decide should I look for alternative options or just wait for the update.
We have a plan to release new update every 1.5 month so now for the next update the Event booking will be released, hopefully. Then for next 1.5 month probably these other two features and then we will probably start working on deposits.
I can not tell you precisely the date but that is roughly timeline.
I just submitted a ticket for a similar request before finding this thread.
I love the plugin and so does my client, but I'm very surprised that such a feature wasnt included from the start? My client runs a salon and must take a deposit to filter out timewasters.
I understand you completely, plugin is relatively new and we tend to cover all of the use cases and features that are needed, starting from he most requested one, but I agree that deposits are one of the must have features, and I know that the deposits and taxes are one of the features that my team discuss adding it.

Great. Thank you for letting me know
I'm still hoping you will decide to implement this earlier as this is simple one, comparing to event booking and the other ones :)
Please let me know. What If I will additionally pay for this functionality ? :D
Best Regards
Mariusz
HI Maryanek,
I will forward your request to my team to see if there is a possibility to speed this up but I can not promise anything.
Best regards.

Hi there,
I just submitted a ticket for a similar request before finding this thread.
I love the plugin and so does my client, but I'm very surprised that such a feature wasnt included from the start? My client runs a salon and must take a deposit to filter out timewasters.
I really hope this feature will be added soon.
