A More Organized Way to Manage In-Person Rental Payments
Collecting payment at a rental counter can involve more than accepting money. Staff may need to review the order total, confirm the applicable charges, record the transaction, and ensure the order is ready for the next step. A consistent payment workflow helps reduce confusion during busy periods.
Clear Order Totals
Review the rental products and relevant order information before collecting payment. A clear summary helps staff and customers understand the transaction.
Organized Payment Records
Keep payment-related information connected to the relevant rental order where supported, making it easier to reference transaction details later.
Payment Status Visibility
Use available transaction and order statuses to help staff identify which payments have been recorded and which require follow-up.
Flexible Payment Workflows
Support your business's in-person payment process using the payment methods and integrations available to your rental operation.
Replace Disconnected Payment Processes With a Clearer Workflow
When payment details are recorded separately from rental orders, staff may spend extra time checking amounts, locating transaction records, and confirming whether a payment has been completed. An organized process helps keep essential information easier to manage.
The Traditional / Manual Way
- ✕Switching between separate systems to check order and payment details.
- ✕Manually reconciling transaction information with rental orders.
- ✕Spending time clarifying outstanding amounts with customers.
- ✕Searching through separate records to verify payment status.
- ✕Managing counter payments without a consistent procedure.

How It Works

Step 2: Confirm the Amount Due
Review the amount the customer needs to pay, including any applicable deposit or additional charges configured for the order.
Step 3: Collect Payment
Accept payment through a method supported by your business's payment setup. Confirm the availability of in-person card terminals, cash recording, or other payment options before relying on a specific workflow.
