I have a client that would like clients to have the option to pay a deposit OR full price, what is a good way to execute this? I am thinking of having a custom classes/services page with two buttons, "Reserve with Deposit" or "Book and Pay".. but that seems sloppy to me.
Unfortunately, at the moment it's not possible to receive deposits for Appointments. But there's a workaround for that.
The only thing we can suggest to you at the moment is a workaround. For example, you have a Service with a price of $50 and requires a deposit of 20%. Then you can set $50*20% = $10 as a price to be paid online through PayPal/Stripe/WooCommerce and receive the remaining $40 at the spot in cash. In order to make it clear for Customers, you will be able to add a note to the Service description and to explain this payment scenario.
Also, it's possible to set only one price for each service in Amelia, so it'll be either Deposit or the full amount.
However, deposit payments are on our to-do list. This feature will be implemented in one of the coming updates.
If you have any other questions, please let us know.
