Hi,
I believe the "Cash on Delivery" option is a very important feature for all kinds of businesses, no matter if it is a Retail and Goods business or it is Services or Rentals. Is it possible to add this feature to the Services or Rentals templates as well please?
I have the same problem. "Cash on delivery " is very I;\mportant for my business. However, only the template contains cash on delivery which does not support maps
I would like a scenario where Owner of platform can charge X% in booking fee, and then the rest is collected by the merchant when customer collects the rental equipment.
That would be the best scenario.
Plus that the merchant can choose for them self if they want to connect a payment gateway or do all rental by cash.
For me as a owner it doesn´t matter, as long we get paid for commission/Rental fee.
We need "Cash on delivery" feature for all services; my site for car rental needs that.
Totally agree Pierre Hammar, that would be the perfect scenario.
Also, would be nice to have the option of keeping all the money until the pick up/delivery date as default.
Cash flow will be happy of that.
A payment method where only marketplace's account number is displayed would be enough.
