Payment plans
Published Fri 08 May 2020
Payment Plans provide club members with the flexibility to pay an invoice over time. The amount and frequency of payments can be managed by a club administrator and the member will receive scheduled reminder notifications when an instalment is required.
Payment plans can be set up for invoices already generated in the system, or at the time that you issue an invoice. Both processes will be covered below

The system will locate the invoice so you can set up your payment plan options:
