OVERVIEW
In Picsello, you get to decide when client payments are due based on the schedules you preset in packages. Despite this, clients may still be looking for additional ways to manage their payments.
Through the power of Stripe as our online payment processor, US photographers* can now choose to enable additional buy now, pay later (BNPL) payment solutions with Affirm, Klarna, Afterpay and/or Cash App Pay. These are a win-win for you and your clients in that they:
Ensure you receive the full payments in accordance with your payment schedule
Take only a few clicks to set up globally in your Picsello account
Uses your existing Stripe account so nothing else needed on your end
Provide clients with greater flexibility to manage their session payments and gallery orders
Are easily self-selected by clients at the point of payment
Can be used by clients when paying $50 or more for their sessions and gallery orders
