Can my clients pay for the appointments from the site?
Is there any integration to payment gateways and specifically to PayPal? I need people to pay for their bookings (at least a deposit).

Inappropriate?Not yet.
The idea is to keep Scheduly as simple as possible, we have a long list of features that we would like to add and PayPal Integration for appointments payments and deposits is one of them.
I’m confident
The company says
this answers the question
-
Inappropriate?In that case, how do you suggest to integrate the booking process with payment (please only list online/automated ideas)?
-
I would suggest using PayPal or Google Checkout... -
Inappropriate?How is this integration done, considering that your service is hosted?
-
As I wrote earlier there's no integration (for now) between Scheduly and payment services, but when we integrate with a payment service it will be probably those two: PayPal and Google Checkout. So, Meanwhile, I suggested you to direct your clients to pay you from these services and when the integration with Scheduly will launch your clients will be familiar with those online payment services. -
Inappropriate?The solution is to reverse the booking / payment order in the workflow.
When creating your PayPal payment buttons, you specify a Return URL. This is the destination to which you would like PayPal to send your customers when their payment has been successfully completed.
Once your customers click "Continue" they will be taken to the page where they can schedule with you. Don't link to this page from anywhere else on your website. If someone finds you on Scheduly and books from there, you'll have to let them know that the service needs to be pre-paid.
That's what I plan to do for services that I need up-front payment for -- at least until the integration is provided by Scheduly And I'll be stating the requirement for pre-payment clearly in the service description -- and providing a link to paypal button too - so maybe I won't get requests that are not pre-paid.
I’m unconcerned
