So, so, so helpful even 2 years later. Explanations and demonstrations so clear. Easiest how to video especially for those of us who are not tech savvy at all. The struggle is real and you made it easy. Thank you!
HOLY COW batman! I have been pulling my hair out trying to do this on my wordpress website, never being very happy with how it looked or the lack of integration w/ payment methods. And then I ran across this - which seems to do everything I want ... FOR FREE.
Thank you so much for this. Very informative. Is there any way to limit the amount of people that can sign up ie to have a max amount of people that can register for any given event?
Hi, thanks for making this really great add-on! I was wondering if there is a way to make payment mandatory in order to complete the form. Based on what I understand, the registrant is able to fill out the form completely, and then choose not to pay, but their name would still show up in the responses. Is there a way to make payment a prerequisite for the registrant's name showing up in the response spreadsheet?
So you are correct that the way it works is registration is split into 2 steps. The first step is form submission, and the second step is payment of the choices from that submission. Sadly we are not able to block the form submission until after a payment is received. Most sellers prefer this method, because in a way it allows you to never loose the information from an interested customer. It allows you to potentially follow up or offer a promo code to those that did not submit payment. We add columns to the spreadsheet so you can see who has paid easily and who has not. You can add a filter on the status column to just see people who have paid if needed. You can also turn on payment reminders and we will send an email after 24 hours, to help remind anyone who has not paid they missed a step. Hope that helps answer your question. 👍
How does the payment get to your account? Does it function like a regular paypal payment that you are alerted about? Just curious about where the money goes from the form. How quickly it is processed? And is there any fee for using this payable option...like do they take a fee?
When you connect your PayPal account if someone makes a payment to you the money will go instantly to your PayPal account. You will get an email and see it in your PayPal transaction history. When you accept payments through a partner platform they always come through as goods and services, so as such PayPal will take their goods and services fee and there is no cost to your customer. Payable Apps adds an additional small app fee at the time of each transaction which is outlined here: www.payableapps.com/pricing Generally we suggest marking up your pricing by 4-5% to cover the fees or you add a convenience fee in the add-on to pass on costs to the customer if you wish.
Hey, thank you for this great video. It helped me a lot. Is there any way to send a payment confirmation email or may be a purchase ticket to the buyer?
Hey there, Check out enabling the new Advanced Confirmation Emails in the Notification settings of the sidebar: help.payableapps.com/en/article/payable-forms-advanced-email-capabilities-141qxbj/ After the user submits your form they will get an email with a QR code on it and a unique order ID. Typically this email and the link inside it can act as the "ticket" . If you scan the QR code from the email with your phone, it will take you to their order page, where you can see what they ordered and if it has been paid correctly. PayPal and Stripe send a Payment Receipt after payment, but we typically use the Order Created email as the ticket.
I followed the instructions but my form requires a file upload - and apparently the plugin doesn't work on these forms? Is there any workaround that you know of?
I like this. So if someone chooses not to pay. We can reach out and offer them alternative ways to pay like Cashapp or Zelle, just not through this, but at least the total is recorded correct? and we can manually input the payment received, right?
Correct. You can mark an order as paid outside of the add-on by using these steps. help.payableapps.com/en/article/manually-updating-a-payable-order-status-fw3z7/
Just wondering, I am going to start up a business where I will giving away and selling PDF forms and eBooks. Can I use this method to do so and how much would it cost for each transaction when people purchase. Thank you in advance for responding.
@@allantheoret5389 - We have this video which talks about setting up a link for a digital download: th-cam.com/video/8O-MlEXyWds/w-d-xo.htmlsi=y1MeLEGnWaZYVwjZ It would depend on the cost of your eBook, but take your PayPal, Square, or Stripe transaction costs and then it would add a small fee app fee: www.payableapps.com/pricing Typically you would expect 3-5% total transaction fees.
Yes you just need to add the total for each quantity to a drop down option. Eg. 1 widget - $10 2 widgets - $20 3 widgets - $30 How to create bulk answers options for Google Forms th-cam.com/video/kiPOLQHi-NA/w-d-xo.html
Hello, thank you for the information. Is it possible to add promotional discounts that guest can enter to have a percentage taken off their payment when they go check out? This would support my marketing efforts for my services.
Yes - You can create and share promo codes with your buyers. They are entered on the checkout page as opposed to the google form itself. We have a video on it here: th-cam.com/video/1K_SDN5SVw8/w-d-xo.html
HELP! I'm having an issue.... every time I test the payable form the payment screen doesn't populate, just a screen saying it's calculating and then it times out.
Hi. What happens if someone closes or refreshes the payment tab. Will he have to fill up the form again? Since the spreadsheet will show pending payment at this stage.
If a customer completes the Google Form, and then transitions to the checkout page, but for some reason decides to leave the checkout, or close that window without paying it is not a problem. At the time of the form submission we also email the user their Order ID and the link to checkout so they should have it in their inbox. This way they can always get back to the checkout page and pay for their order later. You can also copy the link out of your sheet and re-send it to them if you wish.
Hi. Thank you for the video. I reside in India 🇮🇳. Is it possible for me to set the currency to Indian Rupees or will there be a fee deducted when a transaction has gone through. Scenario #1 I do not have a PayPal account. Can I use the payable forms be applied to any card or my bank account directly. Scenario #2 I have a PayPal account linked to my bank account, will the amount be directly credited to my account.
On the payment link page, is it possible to disable the "Contact Details" on the payment page between the order details and the payment options section? It seems repetitive to have them fill out the for asking for the same info more than once so if I can remove it I would like to.
Hey there, The contact details are required for us to collect on that page and passed on to the payment provider (PayPal, Stripe, Square). Sadly we are not able to pre-populate that information from data that is collected in the form. Once the user has gone to a check-out page once, we do save that contact information in a cookie, so if they come back and submit your form again, they should not need to re-enter it on the second, third, forth... payment. While it is a second entry of the email and name, we also use it to ensure we have matched the correct order up with the form submission.
Question: I get that if they use the paypal link that the funds will go to the paypal account that is attached but if they choose the card option, then where does those funds go? Thanks!
If you connect PayPal as your payment provider, no matter what option someone chooses, pay by card, PayPal, Venmo, Pay Later, the money always flows into your connected PayPal Account.
Hey, I can do it for you. And everybody else who is Interested. Just find my details in the About Page of my channel and send a email. And we can move from there.
Sadly not directly today. Today you must be in a country supported by our existing payment providers Stripe, PayPal, or Square. We hope to make more direct wallet to wallet capabilities in the future, but today we are limited to the ones that offer a public 3rd party integration.
Hey there, you might be running into the multiple Google Account in a single browser issue. Take a look at our first FAQ: help.payableapps.com/en/article/payable-forms-faqs-wyrhan/
You will pay your connected payment provider (PayPal, Stripe, Square) like usual. Be sure to check the rates with the payment provider by country. The payment provider will add a small platform cost for each successful transaction setup by payable as outlined here: www.payableplugins.com/cost-calculator.php
So not exactly. Now if you have setup PayPal as your payment provider, one thing you can do is just a one time payment and let your users use “Pay Later” which is PayPal’s purchase financing product. m.th-cam.com/video/uQE1xQahYeA/w-d-xo.html
We are hoping to add in the future the ability to limit the recurring period after a certain amount of cycles. So you could do something like “Four Month Plan - $100 / Month X 4”
Awesome solution for simple needs. Is it possible to change the gmail account that is sending the Invoice to a more professional one? Sends my personal account. Thanks in advance
Sadly there is no quick way to change the email address. We typically recommend copying the form and going through the setup steps again with the new account. help.payableapps.com/en/article/payable-forms-user-mixups-and-starting-over-13dmuf3/
Very cool but how can we make payable forms for clients ? Because the app asks you to connect a Paypal account and of course the client will not give you access to his account
You should be able to copy the URL from the first payable hosted connect page that opens. Then send that to your client. Let them go through the connection flow, and later you can click the check-connections button.
For Quantities there is not multiplication of 2 inputs - You simply must list each price out for each quantity independently like in the guest pass example.
Sadly not - We wish we could. The confirmation message is on the Google Form itself, and Google does not allow any customization beyond text and text links.
Which page do you want a QR code to be on? We have an update coming shortly where we will include a QR code in the confirmation emails. If you want to turn your google form into a QR code, you can do that. Take the share URL for your google form, and shorten it, then use any QR code generator online, when people scan that we code it will take them to your google form, then payment.
To do a refund you will login to your connected payment provider (Eg PayPal, Stripe, Square) and click refund from inside their dashboard. The order will update automatically after the refund to reflect once its refund.
@@PayableApps thank you. Additionally, is there an option to assign a per unit cost, and having the end user input number of individuals, for example, and based on the per unit cost have the system calculate total cost?
@@avyassayag3889 not exactly. Quantities need to be listed out with their total prices in a drop down. You can use google sheets to make a big drop down. Please chat with us over at help.payableapps.com/en/

Yes. For refunds you just login to your payment provider (PayPal, Stripe, Square, ect.) and issue the refund from there. We should detect the refund and update the order to show it was refunded.
This was very informative and I think will help my business greatly. I was wondering if there is a way to assign different answers to different payment methods. For example offer my customer to pay with either paypal or venmo.
Hey there thanks for asking! Great question, and the easiest way to do this is just to use the built in Venmo “Smart Payment Button” powered by PayPal. No additional work needed on your side. Check out this video: th-cam.com/video/OPjCJjVdBgw/w-d-xo.html
