MioCommerce gives you flexible ways to charge your customers or record payments, depending on how the payment is collected.
When charging a customer from a booking, you can either:
Charge the customer directly using MioPay (Stripe), or
Record a payment collected through another method
Charge Using MioPay (Powered by Stripe)
When you select Charge using MioPay (with Stripe), you can process secure online payments directly from the booking.
Supported payment methods include:
Credit Card
Debit Card
These payments are processed securely through Stripe, and the charge is applied instantly to the booking.
Record a Payment Collected Through Another Method
If you collected payment outside of MioCommerce, you can record it for accurate tracking.
Available collection methods include:
Cash
Cheque
Interac e-Transfer
eCheck
PAD
PayPal (External)
Square (External)
Venmo
Zelle (External)
Coupon
IMS
ITEX
None (for manual adjustments)
Recording a payment ensures your booking balance and reports stay accurate, even when the payment happens outside the platform.
How to Choose the Right Option
Use MioPay (Stripe) when you want to charge the customer directly from the booking
Record a collection when the customer has already paid using cash, cheque, or another external method
Both options keep your financial records accurate and tied to the booking.
