Record a quick payment

With Quick pay you ring up a loose amount without services or products. It becomes a finished sale with VAT, a receipt number and a receipt.

Sometimes you only want to ring up an amount, without a service or product from your catalogue. You do that with Quick pay. It becomes an ordinary finished sale, with its own receipt number and a receipt you can print, download or email.

How a quick payment works

  • The amount goes on the receipt as one line. If you fill in Notes, that becomes the name of the line. Without a note the line is called Quick pay, in the language your salon uses for clients.
  • VAT is calculated on the amount. The VAT rate is set to the location's default rate for services; you can choose another rate.
  • The sale is paid and finished straight away. There is no client on it and no appointment behind it.
  • You cannot pay a quick payment with a gift card. Cadeaubon (gift card) is in the list of payment methods, but if you choose it the quick payment is refused. A gift card is redeemed on an ordinary sale.

Make a quick payment

  1. In the menu, go to Checkout and click Quick pay at the top.
  2. Fill in the Amount.
  3. Choose the Payment method. If your role may not collect cash, cash is not in the list.
  4. Choose the Location. The location you work at now is already filled in.
  5. Check the VAT rate. If you choose another location, the rate changes to that location's default.
  6. Fill in Notes if you like, for example what the amount is for.
  7. Click Pay. You see the message Payment completed and the sale shows in the list.

You need the permission Can checkout purchases for this, and for a cash payment also Can collect cash payments. You set them under Settings › Team members › Permission roles.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put a quick payment in a client's name?

No, the window does not ask for a client. If you want the payment in the client's profile, make an ordinary sale with the client on it.

Does the client get a receipt?

Not automatically, because there is no client on the sale. Open the sale in the list to print or download the receipt, or to send it to an email address.

Can I send the amount to my card terminal?

Not yet; that is planned. Take the payment on your own terminal and then choose Pin as the payment method.

Why can't I click Pay?

An amount, a payment method, a location and a VAT rate are required. If the location has no default rate for services, choose a rate yourself.
