Prepare the charge

02

Open Charge from the record

In Clients, open the record and select Charge. Check the name before completing the form.

Open Charge from the record
If no client is assigned

An instalment plan needs a record: create or open the client’s record and return to Charge. A single charge can be created without that association, but this field will not link it to a record.

If no client is assigned
03

Enter the description

Complete What for with a charge description. It appears on the client page and is required.

Enter the description
04

Enter the amount

Enter the amount without a currency symbol. For a single charge, it is the total. For instalments, it is the amount of each instalment, not the plan total. Check decimals.

Enter the amount
05

Choose the currency

Select the currency. Check that it matches the amount and, for instalments, the selected series.

Choose the currency
06

Leave one instalment for a single payment

In How many instalments, leave 1 for one payment. For several scheduled charges, follow the instalments section.

Leave one instalment for a single payment
07

Decide whether signing is required before paying

In Require them to sign before paying, select a pending client agreement when needed. Leave No signature needed if this step is unnecessary.

Decide whether signing is required before paying
If the agreement is missing

Check that it belongs to this record and is pending. Complete preparation in Signatures and return to the charge.

If the agreement is missing
02

Set up instalments

Enter the amount per instalment and check the total.

08

Set the number of instalments

Enter from 2 to 60. Above 1, interval and series appear. The plan must be linked to a client.

Set the number of instalments
09

Check the amount per instalment and total

Review the summary. For example, 6 instalments of 150 total 900 in the chosen currency. If incorrect, correct amount or count before creating.

Check the amount per instalment and total
10

Choose the interval

In How often to charge, choose every month, every two months or every three months. Review it together with count and amount.

Choose the interval
11

Select the invoicing series

In Which series to invoice with, choose the invoice or receipt series. Check type and currency before creating the plan.

Select the invoicing series
If no series is available

Open Invoicing and create or activate the appropriate series. Reopen Charge from the record to load it. The plan cannot be created without a valid series. Required signing before payment applies to single payments, not instalments.

If no series is available
03

Generate and share the link

Wait for the result before sharing.

12

Create the charge

Review fields and select Create the charge. Wait for the result. On error, correct the indicated data; do not assume a link was created.

Create the charge
If it cannot be created

Check description, amount, connection and, for instalments, client and series. If the response is interrupted, check the record before creating again to avoid duplication.

If it cannot be created
13

Copy and share the link

Select Copy the link. Paste it into your client message and confirm sending in that channel. Copying does not automatically send a notification.

Copy and share the link
14

Open the form to check it

Select Open the payment form. Check description, currency, amount and any required agreement. Opening it does not create another charge.

Open the form to check it
15

Charge an issued invoice

In Invoicing, open an issued, unpaid invoice and select Charge. Its number and total are used to generate the link; no retyping is needed. Check the result before sharing.

Charge an issued invoice
16

Set how the invoice is marked paid

In My account → Payments, check Mark my invoices when Stripe collects. When enabled, invoices linked to payment can be marked automatically. When disabled, check payment and record it in Invoicing.

Set how the invoice is marked paid
04

Open the link and check payment

Includes the steps for the person paying.

17

Complete the required signature

If signing is requested first, open the agreement through that access and sign. Then return to the payment link. Payment cannot continue while the required agreement remains pending.

Complete the required signature
18

Review details before paying

The person opens the link and checks description and amount. If incorrect, contact the coach before entering payment details. The card form appears when the charge is available.

Review details before paying
19

Wait for confirmation

After confirming payment, wait for the result. If paid is shown, do not repeat payment. If the bank requests verification, complete it and wait for confirmation.

Wait for confirmation
20

Check how later instalments continue

The first payment uses the link. Later payments are attempted on the saved card at the chosen interval. If an instalment fails or needs authorisation, review the notice and its status before acting.

Check how later instalments continue
21

Check the charge record

If the charge belongs to an invoice, open Invoicing and check its payment status. For instalments, check documents in the chosen series. For a single payment without an invoice, reopen its link to check confirmation. A newly generated link does not confirm payment.

Check the charge record

Check the result

Review description, currency and amount. For instalments, also check count, total, interval and series. Creating a link does not confirm payment.
