Payments are easy to add to a post once Payments have been turned on. They work great for tickets, merchandise sales, dues and everything in between.
Payments work exactly like other add-ons such as signups, forms, and polls, which can be added to any post. The entire Payment setup takes place either during the post creation process or can be added to existing posts after the fact.
Here’s your step-by-step guide to add Payment to a Post:
1. Create your post or event by tapping the blue post icon.
2. Once you’ve selected your post type, tap on the + to view the list of add-ons and choose Payment.
3. On the next screen, start by adding a Payment Name. It’s important to be as specific as possible since this is what members see.
4. Add any Special Instructions that might be needed. This is an optional field, but it allows admins the opportunity to provide any necessary extra direction before members make their purchase.
5. Choose either Set Fixed Amount or Allow Custom Amount depending on the nature of your payment.
6. Add your Payment Amount. Just note that the minimum transaction amount has to be greater than $20.
7. Next, choose who you want to cover the transaction fee, the group or the individual members. By default, members cover the fee but this can easily be switched.
8. Finally, you have the option to toggle on Allow Multiple Payments and Lock to disable further payments if you so choose.
9. Now that you’ve filled out the Payment details, tap DONE to return to the post creation screen.
10. Fill in any other information or details associated with this post, and tap Post to publish.
Once published, you will see your post with a blue PAY button which, when tapped, initiates the payment process for members on the item for sale.
