Payment Schedules

Payment Schedules for VRBO

This page is about the menu  (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > VRBO/HOMEAWAY > MAPPING  PAYMENT SCHEDULES

By default payment is due at the time of the booking. You can change this to "At Check-in " in (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > VRBO/Homeaway.COM > SPECIFIC PROPERTY CONTENT.

If payments are due at different times you can set up payment schedules in (SETTINGS) > CHANNEL MANAGER > VRBO > PAYMENT SCHEDULE and link it to your property in (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > VRBO/Homeaway.COM > SPECIFIC PROPERTY CONTENT.

If you have set up deposit collection in (SETTINGS) PAYMENTS- > PAYMENT COLLECTION we will send the deposit amount set there to be due at the time of the booking and the remainder if any at arrival.

Listings where guests do not have to pay the full amount with the booking perform better. Payment Schedules allow to set up to five payments.

In (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER -> VRBO/Homeaway.COM > SPECIFIC PROPERTY CONTENT you can set which payment types you accept. Beds24 supports following payment options:

1. Invoice

If you choose "Invoice" you need to enter a description on how guests can pay in (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER -> VRBO/HOMEAWAY.COM > SPECIFIC CONTENT "Payment Options Description "

2. Credit Card

The cards you have activated in (SETTINGS) PAYMENTS -> PAYMENT GATEWAYS -> CREDIT CARD will be sent as accepted cards.

If you do not receive a credit card with the booking and require a payment prior to the guest arrival, you can use an Auto Action to request payments from guests.

You can collect their credit card details to charge manually see Here via your payment gateway.

Or automatically if you use the Stripe Integration for more information :-https://wiki.beds24.com/index.php/Stripe_Payment_Schedule

If you do not take the total amount as a deposit, you must set up a "Payment 2" for the remaining amount.
