Let customers pay a deposit and the rest later

Take a deposit at checkout, schedule the balance as installments and send automatic reminders with a link to pay each one.

Deposits, installment plans and reminders

Set deposits and plans store-wide or per product, and installments are collected on schedule.

  • Deposit at Checkout

    Customer pays a percentage or fixed deposit right now. The balance is scheduled automatically. No manual invoicing. No awkward "can we split this?" conversations. Just a confirmed order and a funded deposit.

  • Visual Schedule Builder

    Build payment plans in your Joomla admin with a live drag-and-reorder editor. Add installment rows. Set amounts (percentage or fixed) and intervals (days, weeks, months). The allocation preview updates as you go, no guessing, no spreadsheet.

  • Automated Email Reminders

    Five email types fire automatically: payment-ready notifications, overdue reminders on your schedule, deposit thank-yous, and escalation alerts. Zero manual follow-up. The system chases. You cash the checks.

  • Customer Pay-Now Flow

    A secure link in every reminder email opens a full checkout page, with all your active payment gateways, the amount due, and the order summary. Works for logged-in customers and guests alike. Two clicks to paid.

  • Per-Product Override

    Three modes per product: full payment only, required deposit, or optional. Set deposit rate and assign plans at the product level. Everything else inherits storewide defaults. One setting covers the catalog; overrides handle the exceptions.

  • Escalation Controls

    When a customer goes quiet past your threshold, the system acts: alert yourself by email, cancel the delinquent installment, or void all remaining balance. You set the rules once, the task scheduler enforces them every day without your involvement.

  • Accurate Full-Total Invoices

    The order record always carries the full cart value. Line items add up. Subtotal plus tax equals the grand total, always. Designed to meet EU invoice requirements where the numbers must be mathematically correct on every document.

  • Coupon and Tax Intelligence

    Tax collects upfront with the deposit or distributes proportionally across installments. Coupons reduce the deposit only, hit each installment, or distribute across the full order. Per-coupon restrictions gate coupons to deposit-only or full-payment-only orders.

  • Automatic Saved-Card Charging

    With a payment extension that saves cards, each installment can be charged automatically on its due date.

Build Payment Plans in Your Admin

The visual schedule editor turns installment plan configuration into a drag-and-drop process. You add rows, set amounts, pick intervals, and watch a live preview confirm the math is right before you save. No developer. No custom code. No recurring subscription to a separate installment platform.

  • Percentage or fixed-amount installments per row
  • Timing intervals in days, weeks, months, or years
  • Live allocation preview, "✓ 100% allocated" before you save
  • Duplicate plans, reset to defaults, publish or unpublish anytime
  • Per-product plan assignment with storewide fallback

Automatic Reminders and Escalation

Five automated email types, a customer-facing pay-link, and an escalation system that takes action when customers go dark. When an installment is due, the customer gets an email. When they ignore it, they get another, on the exact day schedule you configured. When it escalates, you're alerted or the balance is voided automatically. The spreadsheet is retired.

  • Email reminder cadence configured once, runs forever
  • Secure pay links work for logged-in customers and guests
  • Customer schedule page shows every installment status
  • Admin panel shows paid-to-date and full installment history per order
  • One-click resend from the admin order screen

Payment Plans Shown on the Product Page

The storefront plan picker renders as clickable cards or radio buttons on the product detail page. Each option shows the deposit amount due today, the number of additional installments, and a description you write. The customer picks, adds to cart, and the checkout reflects exactly what they chose, amount due now, balance due later, no small print surprises.

  • Card layout or radio layout, your choice per plan
  • Deposit amount and installment count shown per option
  • Plan description visible to help customers choose
  • Checkout timeline shows progress after purchase
  • Cart line items show deposit and plan name, zero guessing

Use Cases

High-Ticket Furniture and Home Decor

A home goods store sells custom sectionals starting at $1,600. Paying the full price up front for a made-to-order piece puts buyers off. They enable a required 30% deposit storewide. Customers pay at checkout; the balance is due 45 days later when the piece is ready for delivery.

The customer is committed. Production is funded. The balance email fires automatically the week before delivery. Nobody has to send an invoice or chase the payment by hand.

Photography Studio and Event Booking

A photographer charges $1,200 for full event coverage. They create a plan: 50% deposit at booking, 50% due seven days before the event. The checkout shows both options clearly, pay in full, or pay the deposit now and the rest before the event.

Customers who want to secure their date pay the deposit. Seven days before the event, the due-date email fires automatically. The customer clicks, pays with their preferred gateway, and the balance clears before the first shutter click. The photographer's calendar is locked; their account is funded.

Online Training and Course Enrollment

A training provider sells an eight-week business accelerator at $899, too steep for an impulse buy. They build a three-installment plan: payment at enrollment, at week three, and at week six. The storefront shows three payments of approximately $300 each.

The task scheduler activates each installment on schedule and fires the payment-ready email. Where the payment gateway supports saved cards, the system auto-charges on due date, no student action required. The provider gets paid across the course duration. The student spreads the cost across the weeks they are actively getting value.

Custom and Made-to-Order Products

A handcrafted instrument builder takes twelve orders per year at $3,500 each. Deposit required, 40% at order, 60% at estimated completion in 90 days. No deposit means no build slot. The required-deposit product mode ensures every order placed is a committed, funded order.

When the instrument is finished, the balance installment activates on schedule. The customer receives their pay link. The builder collects the remaining balance. The instrument ships. Nothing falls through the cracks because there is no human hand involved in the follow-up.
