Dear MotoPress team,
As an addition to the existing feature request https://motopress.com/forums/topic/feature-request-in-combination-with-hotel-booking-payment-request/, I would like to request the following addition: it would be useful to be able to handle the deposit/full payment more dynamically, activating it only for specific room rates. Right now, in the payment options, we have only the choice between activating deposit or full payment, but in some cases a more “hybrid” approach would be needed.
If we have for example “Refundable” rates, it makes sense that the client pays the deposit (e.g. 50%) upfront, and the remaining amount X days before arrival (if there is still enough time left, else he pays the full amount upfront, see other feature request).
For “Non-refundable” rates, on the other hand, it would make sense that the client pays the entire amount upfront (without deposit).
In other words, it would be nice if we would be able to choose which method to apply for each rate: deposit or full payment.Thank you in advance and best regards,

I would really love this update.
Indeed for different rates, make a dynamic deposit:
Refundable: 50% and the other 50% 7 days before arrival. When booked within 7 days, the customer pays 100% at once.
Non-Refundable: Pay 100% upon booking.

Pleae implement this as soon as you can.

There is an option of Depeost TimeFrame optional Accommodation > Settings > Payment Gateways. If you set 7 days then the guest will pay 100% amount if the check-in of his reservation is in less than 7 days from today’s date. And he will pay a deposit if the check-in date is in more than 7 days from today’s date. - AuthorPosts
