Payments & payouts

Record a payment or request online payment

Keep a reservation balance accurate by recording received payments or sharing an AnimalAdmin Pay link for the amount still due.

Record money already received

Each entry appears in the payment history and updates the paid and remaining amounts. Record only payments you have actually received.

  1. Open the reservation and go to its Payments tab.
  2. Select Add payment. The outstanding amount is suggested when a balance remains.
  3. Enter the amount, payment method, and date. Add an optional note, then save.

Request an online payment

The Payment link action is available when AnimalAdmin Pay is ready and the reservation still has an amount due.

  1. Select Payment link in the reservation's Payments tab.
  2. Create the link for the amount shown by the payment flow.
  3. Copy the link, send it by email when the client has an email address, or use SMS when the client has a phone number and SMS is enabled for your account.

Check the balance

Return to the Payments tab to review the reservation total, recorded payments, remaining balance, and transaction history. A payment link is a request for payment; do not add a second manual entry unless the money was received outside the online flow.
