Online booking - Did my customer pay?

Sometimes, a customer may lose signal or leave the browser too quickly, but can still capture the payment.

Are you requesting a payment before an online booking is made?

In rare cases, a customer may experience signal loss or navigate away from the browser too quickly. In such instances, the payment may still be captured before the appointment is created, as the payment processing occurs prior to the appointment being finalized.

This may result in the cusomter not receiving an SMS or email confirmation for the booking or booking request, as the booking has not been populated. It is important to emphasize to your customers that any booking request is not secured until they have received confirmation from you.

If, on the rare occasion, this occurs, customers should contact you to inform you that they have not received any confirmation. In such cases, you can then cross reference the dates and times of attempted transactions.

To find a possible payment take a look in the top right Person icon > My Earnings

This type of transaction will not have a customers name attached. However, you will be able to narrow down the payment by searching for date, time and amount the customer has informed you of.

Connecting up the payment to a manual booking

Once you have found the transaction take a note of the amount, time and Payment Reference number this will look like 'my_salon6437895t73'

Now if you have not created the booking yet for the customer go ahead and create their booking > or you can refund the transaction if you are unable to furfil their booking.

In the appointment hop over to the payment tab and click 'Add Payment'

Pop the details into the Payment Date, Payment Method, Amount and Reference

You can add any note you may like into the Description > the payment Reference number is the important field to be able to link up the transaction and booking.

Click add, and now when you go back to the 'My Earnings' you will see both transactions in the list one with the customers name and one without. At this point, as long as the record with the customers name attached is also displaying the option to Refund or Delete > you can go ahead and Delete the duplicate with no name attached.

This has linked up their SavvyPay payment and removed the duplicate entierly from your reports.
