DaySchedule offers a full-featured online appointment booking system with payments via Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay to accept payment from your customers while booking an appointment or service.

You can easily connect to any of these payment gateway and specify your prices, currency for your event or services to monetize your appointments.

Payment flow

In DaySchedule appointment scheduling software, the payment works by integrating with a payment gateway. A payment gateway is a service that securely authorizes credit card, UPI transactions on behalf of the merchant and passes the transaction details to the acquiring bank for settlement.

When a customer books an appointment through a scheduling page, they will typically be prompted to select a time slot > enter their registration details > redirected to payment gateway for secure transaction.

If the transaction is approved, the payment gateway sends a confirmation back to the DaySchedule and the appointment is confirmed automatically after payment succeeded.

If no payment is received in 15 minutes, the booking is canceled and the slot released back for next customers.

Payment gateways

There are different types of payment gateways available by country, including those that are directly integrated with the dayschedule software and those that require additional integration work.
