About:
Store owners can now collect payments manually from buyers for any order. Buyers can complete checkout by selecting a manual payment method and then pay the store owner at the time of pickup or delivery using any mode of payment.
How to use
Manual Payment Method Setup:
- Store owners can set up manual payment methods for their e-commerce stores at Payment > Integrations > Manual Payment Methods.
- Initially, store owners can choose either Cash on Delivery or create their own Custom Payment Method.
- Once a payment method is added, Payment Instructions and Messages are optional fields during setup.
- Store owners can enable manual payment methods for either the Order Form or E-commerce Stores. These options will appear at checkout only if enabled at this step.
- Store owners must click Save to apply the changes.
Collect Payment flow (for manual payment method orders):
- Post receiving the order, store owners can record collected payment at Payment > Orders > Select the Order > “Collect Payment” CTA.
- Store owners can collect a payment and define the Payment Mode from the dropdown. Notes (optional) can be added as well.
- Once marked as paid, the transaction status and mode of payment will be updated.
Notes:
- A manual payment method can be set up when a payment integration is already connected in the current version.
- If a recurring product is part of the order, manual payment methods won’t show up at checkout.
- The collect order flow is applicable only to orders made with manual payment methods. Once marked as paid, it can’t be reverted.
- If the payment method isn’t enabled for either the E-commerce stores or Order Forms, it won’t appear on the checkout page.
- Store owners can set up both cash-on-delivery and Custom Payment Method simultaneously.
