This allows customers to pay for appointments in advance. You can make prepayment optional or mandatory. When mandatory, your customer needs to pay online before their appointment is confirmed. After the transaction, they receive a digital receipt and email confirmation.

If you enable the PayPal integration and accept Booking Page payments, your customers will also see a Venmo option.

Switch to a PayPal Business account now🤝

To maintain uninterrupted payment processing, PayPal requires you to connect a Business account to Setmore.

After this, reset your PayPal integration:

  1. In your web app, go to Integrations > PayPal.

  2. Click 'Disconnect' in the lower-right corner of the integration card.

  3. In the pop-up, confirm by clicking 'Yes, disconnect'.

  4. Refresh the page.

  5. Reopen the PayPal integration card, click 'Connect' and confirm your Business account details.

    (See 'Enable the PayPal integration (Web app)' at the top of this article for more).

Note: If you initially connected a PayPal Business account, you must still reset this integration to prevent disruptions.
