Let buyers pay in full
Let buyers pay the whole price by card themselves once you've approved or matched their request.
Normally you send a payment request. If you prefer, buyers can pay the whole price themselves as soon as you've approved or matched their request.
Turn it on
- Open Money › Payments › Paying in full by card.
- Tick Let buyers pay in full themselves.
- Write the Refund terms for full payments. Buyers read and accept them before paying.
When it's offered
Only when the price is fixed: the matched animal's own price, or a group with a single price. Buyers then see Pay in full on their request, with the price, anything already paid, and the total.
If a buyer starts paying in full but doesn't finish, that checkout lapses by itself and never blocks you from sending your own payment request.
Buyer checks before the first payment apply to paying in full too.
