The job is to make staged payments predictable.

Travel bookings often span weeks or months. Payment plans help customers manage cash flow while giving operators clearer control over balances, reminders and risk.

01

Match the booking rhythm

Support deposits, instalments, balance dates and reminders around the travel timeline.

02

Reduce manual chasing

Give teams a clearer view of what has been paid, what is due and what needs attention.

03

Preserve the trail

Keep scheduled and completed payments visible for reconciliation and customer support.

Keep the plan simple for customers and structured for finance.

A useful payment plan should reduce chasing while leaving a clean trail of what happened against the booking.

01

Create the schedule

Define the deposit, the instalments and the final balance against the booking's travel timeline. Reminders, currency and payment method can all be set per booking, so the schedule matches how the customer actually pays rather than a generic template.

02

Send payment moments

When each scheduled payment is due, a secure link or checkout flow is triggered with the booking context already attached. The customer sees an on-brand experience; finance sees the same payment connected to the same booking reference.

03

Track status

Paid, pending, failed and overdue payments stay visible against the booking. Sales and finance can see what is due, what has been chased and what needs human follow-up — without rebuilding the picture from acquirer exports each week.

Reconcile the lifecycle

Every payment event — deposit, instalment, balance, refund, fee — stays attached to the same booking. When finance closes the period or answers an audit question, the full collection history can be drilled into from one record.
