Settings
You can integrate Cost Calculator with different payment systems such as Stripe, Paypal and Razorpay. Or you can let your customers pay in cash for your services and products.
They can be set up in global settings and individual settings on the calculator.
Global Settings
You can integrate and set up payments to the Cost Calculator in the Payments of the Global settings. To do this, go to Global Settings >Payments and you can see these settings:
There are three sections:
Suppose you enable the setting Apply for all calculators. In that case, the setting for this payment method will be applied to all calculators and you will get a notification in the individual settings of the calculator about global settings being applied.
To use different settings (credentials) for different payment methods, leave the setting disabled.
Settings in the Calculator (Individual Settings)
You can also set up payments to the Cost Calculator in the Payments section of Individual Settings. To do this, go to the Settings tab of the calculator you want and head over to the Payments section.
There are five* sections in the payments tab of the individual settings:
Total Field Element
*Order Form should be disabled to use the feature, otherwise it will be hidden.
Form for Payments
To proceed the the payment, payment gateways require at least an email address. That's why payment methods can not be used without an order form. However, the Cost Calculator builder enables one to choose one of the saved forms in the Form Manager as a form to process the payments. All you need to do is to select the necessary form.
If you are receiving orders without an order form using the Form for Payments method, all of your enabled payment methods for the calculator will be shown on the calculator page.
Note that, using the calculator without Order Forms disables the Order Form functionalities in your calculator. Follow this manual to get more about Order Forms.
The contact form has been selected using the Form for Payments feature:
Total Field Element
Here you have to specify the formula elements (total fields) that will be used as the total cost that will be charged from clients. In case several formula fields are selected, their sum will be taken as a total cost.
Note that, hidden total fields in the calculator without enabling Calculate hidden by default in the Formula field settings return 0 (zero) value to the total cost.
Refer to these manuals to set up payment methods accordingly ⤵️
