Every outstanding amenity charge, whether it's a deferred deposit, an unpaid fee, or an item you added after the fact, is now collected from one place: the Payment & Refunds tab of the amenity booking drawer. This guide is a quick orientation before the step-by-step guides for Card, Manual, and Void.

Who can use it: staff, board members, or PMs with amenity booking edit permission on the property.

Where to find it

  1. Open the booking. From Bookings › Amenity Bookings, click a booking to open its drawer.

  2. Go to the Payment & Refunds tab. Any unpaid line, whether it's a deposit that's still scheduled, a fee, or an added item, appears listed under Outstanding charges.

  3. Click "Collect payment." This switches the tab into collect mode: a checkbox appears next to every outstanding line, and a Card | Manual | Void selector appears at the bottom.

Picking what to collect

  • Check one or more lines. You can collect a single charge (just the deposit, for example) or several at once (the deposit and a grill rental together).

  • "Select all remaining" checks every outstanding line in one click.

  • Whatever you select is collected together, as one action, using one method. You can't mix Card for one line and Manual for another in the same action; run the collect flow again for the second method if you need to split it.

Choosing how to collect

Once you've picked your lines, choose one of three methods:

  • Card sends the resident a secure payment link for the selected total. See "Collecting a payment by card."

  • Manual records a cash, cheque, e-transfer, or other offline payment you already received. See "Recording a manual payment."

  • Void waives the selected charges: no money moves, and the action is fully audited. See "Waiving a charge."

Leaving collect mode

Click Exit collect mode (or Done after an action completes) to return the tab to its resting, read-only state.

What you'll see after

Once a charge is collected, it shows Paid with a summary of how it was collected. A waived charge shows Waived. Both read the same way whether the charge was a deposit or an added item.
