Option 1: Pay ahead: Link to third-party websiteRequest a specific/fixed amount from your customer by adding a standard link to your third-party payment website (like Paypal) in Google Forms confirmation message. The link is shown to the user after he or she submits the form.
Option 2: Pay ahead: Peer-to-Peer paymentAdd details of your Paypal, Venmo, Cash App or Bank account details, on your form and ask users to pay and upload screenshot as proof of their payment receipt.
You can request them to pay the fixed amount, in this case $20 by adding a standard link to your third-party payment website, like paypal.me in Google Forms confirmation message. Once your participant enters all their details in the registration form, they will submit it. They then get a thank you/confirmation message upon submission along with the link that you have added.
Advantage:
- You specify how much your customer needs to pay (For example, httsp://paypal.me//20. You can specify the amount to the end of paypal.me link)
- No extra transaction fees on such payment. So, you get to receive the entire amount in your account.
Disadvantages:
- Your customer may not click on the link or may not pay.
- Even if they pay from their third-party payment account or their bank account, they cannot send you their transaction details which you can later map it with the orders that you have collected. For example, a user who used two different email ids, one for registration and another linked with Paypal, there is no way you could identify them under one record.
Similar to the above option, you can add your peer-to-peer payment details directly into your Google Forms, as a Title/Description field. You can write detailed instructions to your users on how to use the details to pay ahead before they submit the form. For example, you can include your Paypal email id, Venmo, Cash App or your Bank account details (sometimes as QR codes) and ask them to send their payment. In this case, the onus is on the users to calculate the total amount they need to pay and enter their account ids in your form for your reference.
Optionally, you can ask them for a transaction number using a short answer question and upload the receipt using a short you have a file upload question within the form.
Then they submit the form and you will receive their payment details already in your Google Form responses or linked Google Sheets for manual check. Once verified you are now ready to process their orders!
Advantage:
- No extra transaction fees on peer-to-peer payments. So, you get to receive the entire amount in your account.
- You can create and add more than one accounts of such payment options. Your users can choose to pay using which ever is convenient for them.
Disadvantages:
- If you have used Wire transfer option, at times the transfer takes 48 hours and delayed especially on week-ends.
- Your user who is skeptical about paying upfront may not complete the process, so you may be losing a customer.
- Or a mischievous user who wants to get through the submission may be pretending to submit some fake transaction number or receipt. You will only discover this during the reconciliation process.
Finding out such mistakes and following-up later will only slow down your order preparation/delivery.
This is an offline process. Here you do not expect your users to pay you while they submit their orders. Instead, you gather all orders of the day and later follow-up with your users via email to ask them for payments.
1. Your users choose the products they want to order on your Google Form.
2. Then they submit the form and you will receive their orders in Google Form responses or linked Google Sheets. (Remember to ask for their email address).
3. You prepare individual or personalized bulk email campaigns using one of the mail merge tools to send them emails with a summary and total of their order. You will instruct them where and how to send their payments.
4. Once your user reads the email and makes the payment, you carry out the manual task of manual checking against each order and payment. Then you are all set to order and delivery of the order!
Advantage:
As this happens after the form submission, both you and your customers can review and agree on the order items and total before payment.
Disadvantage:
Your email should catch the eye of your customer. Even then there is no guarantee that he will make the payment right away. So, it means a lot of follow-ups back and forth.
By now, you might have realized how hectic this is going to be with a lot of manual checks and waiting. Is there a way out?
