To take payments through SlickPay you need to have a Stripe account set up.

No Stripe account? Find out here how to simply set up a Stripe account and start taking payments directly into your account, right from the calendar!


To begin, you need to add the client appointment to the calendar for their chosen date/time as normal.

Then you can use Slickpay to send secure, remote payment request links via the client's booking on the calendar. Simply click the booking on the calendar and you'll see this button.

You will then see the below pop-up which will allow you to define the amount you would like to request.

And then this one when you have successfully sent the SMS request!

What do the Request deposit messages look like? Find out here.

Note - If a deposit has been requested more than 24 hours ago and is still not paid for an appointment in 2 days time, the client will automatically be sent a reminder SMS at 7pm.

If you want to re-send the deposit request please copy/paste the message from the client profile to re-send or you can cancel the appointment and re-send a new deposit request from there!
