Record an external payment for a client

Tobias Gundry

Updated

Use Offline Purchase to add a membership or credit pack after a client pays outside Clovo. The purchase is marked External Payment on their profile. This does not collect money through Stripe or set up automatic renewal payments.

Before you start

  • You can record more than one External Payment for a client.
  • Set an Expiry date no more than three months from today. This replaces the product’s usual expiry for this purchase, and access lasts through the selected day in your studio’s timezone.
  • Offline Purchase offers active memberships and credit packs. It does not offer trials or shop products.
  • If the plan has a contract, the client must agree to it. A contract requiring a signature also needs the client to sign in person.

Record the external payment

  1. Open the client’s profile and find Purchases.
  2. Select Offline Purchase beside POS Purchase.
The Offline Purchase button beside POS Purchase
  1. Choose the Plan and check the Client.
  2. Complete any contract acceptance and signature fields that appear.
  3. Set the Expiry date for the access the client has paid for.
  4. Select Add Membership.

The membership or pack is available according to its inclusions until that expiry. Clovo does not take or reconcile the external payment through Stripe, and it does not automatically bill the client when this access ends.

Take a payment through Clovo instead

Use POS Purchase when the client is paying by card at the studio. For ongoing automatic renewals, use the normal membership purchase flow.
