How do I use my add-on for another form?

Not exactly today - The goal with Payable Forms is to remove the headaches associated with collecting and tracking the non-real time payment methods like cash and check. Some sellers have added a question to their google form itself, something like "How will you make payment? - Card,, Cash, Check" and then specify some some non card instructions. Once a manual payment is received you can mark an order as paid by an outside method using these steps: help.payableapps.com/en/article/manually-updating-a-payable-order-status-fw3z7/
Is that possible to validate the payment ?

We also struggled to find the Payable Fees referenced, but we finally found them "somewhere." I just can't find the link now. The cost, however, is .50% per transaction. This is in addition to whatever card fees you are being assessed by Square, Payable, etc. In our case, we use Google Form with Payables Add-on and Square. We are assessed .50% of the transactions from Payables and 2.9% + .30/transaction from Square for a total of 3.4% + .30 per transaction. Hope this helps.

No. Sadly a limitation of google forms is we can’t modify the google form experience or get any data until the form has been submitted. Some people have used 2 forms. A payment form, and then in the Paid Message provide a link to the next form.

Most of our customers will make their Google form, and add items to it that the customers can select. When you are making a Google form it is in “edit mode” you can see and change the questions and answers ect. When you have tested it, and are ready to send it to the clients, simply click the send button in the tool bar, or the eyeball and copy that link. This is the “view” mode of your form. With the same link, many customers can fill out the same form with different Information. You do not need to make a different form for each client.
You didn't give an amount for the "Treat" in the form, but in the checkout it counted 2 dollars for Treat...

Yes. So they will have 2 records. Right after the form is submitted they receive an email with a link to their unique order. Once paid, the same link becomes a link to their receipt. So they will always have a receipt. Then if you use PayPal or Stripe, they will also receive an email from PayPal or Stripe at the time of payment. (When the form is in Real Money mode.

We use Google Form with the Payables Add-on for our Dog Club that "sells" grooming spaces at our Dog Shows. We found that Payable would NOT allow doing a "quantity x price" set-up, but JotForm would - that said, JotForm was much more costly to us to use because of the number of submitted payments we were planning on receiving. Because of that we decided to stay with Google Forms with the Payables add-on and just list the options like this: 1 grooming space for $80; 2 grooming spaces for $160, 3 grooming spaces for $240, etc. The drawback of this is that we don't get a column that show exactly how many spaces we've sold, however we just take total paid and divide by $80 to get the number of spaces. There would be a little more calculating if we were selling different size spaces with different costs, but we still this Google Form with Payables add-on is a GREAT and easy option vs the manual system and checks we were using before.

So unlike other platforms, we have **no** monthly or recurring costs. With any electronic payment, depending on your country and volume you will pay your connected payment processor (PayPal or Stripe) 2- 3% like normal depending on their agreement with you. As outlined in [our user agreement](www.payableplugins.com/user-agreement) at the time of each electronic payment facilitated by the platform we add a small platform fee which is deducted automatically by the payment processor. They are as follows: For Each Transaction Total smaller than 2.50 -- Free For Each Transaction Total between 2.51 and 75.00 -- Fixed 0.25 For Each Transaction Total greater than 75.01 -- Percentage 0.5% (50 Basis Points) We have a Platform Cost Calculator for examples by currency. www.payableplugins.com/cost-calculator We find most of our customers prefer the flexibility of this model. For example depending on your sale price, it would take an excess of 7-10K in payment volume every single month to to make a paid platform of say $20-30 per month be a better deal. You can have as many forms as you like and use them as much or as little as you wish.

Hey there. You do not need to create a new Google Form for each client, you can re-use your existing Google Form. Sadly we do not have a way to automate deposits, and follow up payments with our software. Each google form submission creates a new order, based on the prices selected in the Google form. If you wish to do deposits, some customers will create 2 forms, the first form is designed to be filled out by the customer submit their information, and select the price for the deposit, and then pay for the deposit. The second form is a form you can fill out yourself with your customers email address, to send the follow up order to them. If you require multi-payment orders with automatic follow ups, it might be better to look into more advanced invoicing through SquareUp.com
