Notes

|---|---|
| Credit Card | We strongly recommend accepting credit cards as it will enhance your website's credibility. We offer 4 different payment gateways to accept credit card payments (you need to decide on one):
|
| Paypal | Paypal gives you the option to accept online payments via Paypal and credit card, however, it does not offer some functionalities like automatic refunds. Overall, Paypal only offers partly automated processes in your reservation system. Find out how to configure Paypal. |

Manual Payments ✨ Feature exclusive to the Professional and Ultimate Plan!
|
In contrast to Paypal or credit card payments, manual payments such as bank transfers or payments by cash are definitely available for all countries. Nevertheless, accepting manual payments requires full manual handling of the reservation. Find out how to accept manual payments. |
💡 Notes:
- You can choose to offer several payment methods to your guests, but be aware that your guest can individually choose the one they prefer, so if you offer Paypal or manual payments, you could end up with much more manual work and time-consuming control work to check if payments have been received or payment requests have been sent out.
- For more details on how a payment was made, you can always check the Payment collection box.
