Deposits per service
A deposit asks the customer to prepay part of a service's price at the moment of booking, with the balance collected in person. Deposits dramatically reduce no-shows on long or expensive treatments and protect the chair time you'd otherwise lose. You set them per service, so quick low-value visits stay friction-free.
How to set it up
- 1
Open Services and pick a service
Go to Services in the sidebar and click the treatment you want to protect — typically your longest or priciest ones.
- 2
Find the Deposit field
In the service editor, scroll to the Deposit section. Deposits are only available once online payment is enabled.
- 3
Set a percentage or fixed amount
Enter either a percentage of the price (e.g. 30%) or a fixed amount (e.g. €20). The customer pays this at booking; the rest is due at the appointment.
- 4
Save and repeat per service
Save the service. Repeat only for the services that warrant it — leave quick add-ons deposit-free for a smooth checkout.
