How to attach a deposit/payment to a promotion

First, you will need to set up Stripe following this guide.

You can set up deposits in two ways


We advise setting up deposits using promotions to avoid conflict when more than one deposit is active. 


You can create the promotion using this guide. Once the promotion is created you can then attach the deposit/payment to it.



Go to settings - payments - deposits - press add:


  • Ensure status is 'Enabled'
  • Add a description to identify what this payment will be used for (this is for internal use only)
  • Attach the promotion to the deposit by selecting it from the drop-down menu
  • The date range will disappear as it will follow the validity of the promotion
  • Select whether you would like to apply to internal bookings
  • Select if the payment will be applied per cover or per booking
  • Click update to save
