Here is a video to outline some of the many possibilities you have when taking bookings from a guest.
You can manually enter a deposit against a guest's booking and then manually updated when they pay the deposit by Paypal, transfer, Credit card, Stripe or whatever. You can track your deposits within each booking and from the Deposit report.
We can add deposits automatically to bookings , with automatic payment taken via Stripe.
We have tokenisation via Stripe and your booking widget. They are many parameters to this. It is basically like a secure online Credit Card Approval Form and only if you need to, do you charge the guest. This is already gaining lots of interest as a solution to reduce No Show bookings.
