Partial Payment

The Partial Payment add-on allows travelers to book trips by paying a portion of the total cost upfront.

This feature is ideal for tour operators who want to offer flexible payment options, making it easier for customers to commit to bookings without paying the full amount immediately.

Key Features #

  • Enable customers to pay a fixed amount or percentage upfront
  • Set global or trip-specific partial payment amounts
  • Customize payment labels displayed to users
  • Send automated email reminders for remaining payments
  • Integrate with various payment gateways supported by WP Travel Engine
  • Disable partial payment for specific trip

Prerequisites #

  • WordPress version 6.0 or higher
  • WP Travel Engine plugin installed and activated
  • WP Travel Engine Pro plugin installed and activated
  • Partial Payment addon installed and activated

You can follow the video or the steps below to configure the Partial Payment add-on.

my account page
  • Go to the Partial Payment add-on page- https://wptravelengine.com/plugins/partial-payment/

Download the Plugin File

Installing the Add-on #

To install the add-on, upload the downloaded file to your WordPress dashboard. Follow the steps below:

  • Navigate to the Plugin > Add New. 
  • Click on the Upload Plugin button.
  • Select the downloaded file, “wp-travel-engine-partial-payment.zip,” from your computer.
  • Click on Install Now.
install addon file
  • Once the file is installed, click on “Activate” to enable the add-on on your website.

Activating the Plugin License  #

To activate the plugin license and receive regular updates, follow these steps:

  • Go to your Admin Dashboard and navigate to WP Travel Engine > Plugin License.
  • Enter the license key in the Partial Payment field.
  • Click Save Changes.
add license key in partial payment
  • Refresh the page to see the Activate License button, then click on it. 

After successful activation, you can update the Partial Payment add-on from the plugins page when a new update is released.

Feature Configuration #

1. Enable Partial Payment Module #

To configure the global settings for Partial Payment, go to WP Travel Engine > Settings > Extensions > Partial Payment.

  • Click the Partial Payment Enable option to enable partial payment for trip booking. 
  • Next, choose whether to accept partial payments as a percentage or a fixed amount.
    • Accept Partial Payment in Percentage: Enter the desired percentage of the trip price to be paid as a partial payment.
    • Accept Partial Payment in Amount:  Enter the desired fixed amount to be paid as a partial payment.
  • Enable the Full Payment option if you want to offer your customers installment plans or immediate full payments.
  • Click Save and Continue. 

Fixed Amount Per Traveler – Explained with Example #

When you choose Fixed Amount as the partial payment type, the amount is calculated per traveler. This means the total partial payment is multiplied by the number of travelers selected during booking.

Example:

  • You set the Partial Payment as a fixed amount of $100.
  • A customer books a trip for 3 travelers.

Total Partial Payment Due = $100 x 3 = $300

The customer will be required to pay $300 upfront to confirm the booking. This ensures the deposit scales with the number of travelers, making it fair and proportional for group bookings.

2. Set Trip-Specific Partial Payment Amount #

Partial Payment can also be applied to each individual trip, allowing you to customize the deposit amount as a percentage or fixed amount. You can also disable the partial payment option if you don’t want for any trips.

  • Go to Trips > All Trips and select the trip to edit.
  • Scroll down to find the WP Travel Engine – Trip Settings area at the bottom of the trip page.
  • Click on the Date and Price tab.
  • Locate the Partial Payment options and configure the settings for the trip.

You can choose to use the global settings you’ve already configured, customize them specifically for this trip, or disable them entirely.

Once you configure it, update the trip.

On the checkout page, it shows like this:

Note: If customers select the “Book Now, Pay Later” option, partial payment won’t be available.

3. Set Payment Reminders: #

The Payment Reminder feature allows you to automatically notify customers about their upcoming due payments before the trip begins. Additionally, you can show a custom deposit message at checkout to inform travelers of their remaining payment schedule.

This helps streamline payment collection and reduces missed or delayed payments by keeping travelers informed and on track.

New Options and Configuration #

To configure this feature, go to:
WP Travel Engine > Settings > Extensions > Partial Payment

1. Final Payment Due In #

Set how many days before the trip start date the final payment must be made. This value is also used to schedule the automatic email reminder.

Example: If you set this to 7 days, travelers will be required to pay the remaining balance 7 days before the trip begins and receive a reminder accordingly.

2. Deposit Message at Checkout #

You can show a message at checkout that informs customers when their remaining payment is due.

  • Use {payment_due_date} to dynamically display the due date.
  • This message is not displayed if “Allow Deposit for Last-Minute Bookings” is enabled and the trip is booked within the final payment period.

Example Message:
“Your remaining payment is due by {payment_due_date}. You will receive a reminder email before this date.”

3. Allow Deposit for Last-Minute Bookings #

Toggle this option to allow or restrict deposits for bookings made within the “Final Payment Due In” period.

  • Enabled: Travelers can still pay only the deposit amount.
  • Disabled: Travelers must pay the full amount at checkout.

Set the Partial Payment Reminder Email #

Once you’ve enabled and configured the reminder settings above, set the reminder email template from:
Dashboard > WP Travel Engine > Settings > Emails > Notifications > Customer

  • Scroll to the “Partial Payment Reminder” email template.
  • Customize the subject, content, and design.
  • The email is automatically sent based on the “Final Payment Due In” setting.

Note: The email will only be sent if both the Partial Payment and Payment Reminder features are enabled and correctly configured.

Common Use Cases #

  • High-Value Trips: Allow customers to secure bookings with a deposit for expensive tours.
  • Early Bird Offers: Encourage early bookings by accepting partial payments in advance.
  • Group Bookings: Facilitate group reservations by enabling each member to pay a portion upfront.

Troubleshooting and FAQs #

Can I set different partial payment amounts for different trips? #

Yes, you can override global settings by configuring partial payment options within each trip’s settings.

How are customers reminded to pay the remaining amount? #

The system sends automated email reminders based on your email settings.

Can I disable full payment options entirely? #

Yes, you can disable it from the Global Settings of Partial Payment add-on.
