Setting a default payment method is simple and streamlines the order process. Your default payment method will be automatically selected in the payment popup when you submit an order on the new order page.


What are the Payment Methods in CleanCloud?

Cash

Take full payment in cash for the entire order value.

Card

Take an external card payment using a non-integrated card terminal.


Note: This does not initiate an actual transaction.

Pay on Collection

The customer pays when the order is complete and ready for collection.

Check / Cheque

The customer pays using a check/cheque.

Bank / Wire Transfer

Payment is transferred from the customer’s bank, via wire or other bank-to-bank protocol.

Invoice / On Account

The customer will pay later via an invoice. Typically used for business or commercial accounts.


Note: This option can be restricted to Business Accounts only. Set this in Settings → Admin → Payments & Finances → Allow Only for Business Accounts.

Partial by Cash

The customer pays part now (when the order is created) and the rest upon collection.

Partial by Card
