We’re pleased to introduce Eventective Payments, our newest feature to make managing your event business easier. We’ve partnered with Stripe so your business can request and accept payments through your Eventective account. Just connect your Stripe account (or create one) to take payments for events you host. We’re excited to give you the ability to offer your clients a secure online payment experience!
Connect Eventective to Stripe
To start, you will need to connect your Eventective account to an existing Stripe account or create a new one. If you don’t have a Stripe account, click here.
If you have an existing Stripe account, you can follow these steps:
- Login to your Eventective account and select ‘Settings.’
- Click the ‘Accept Customer Payments’ tile.
- Select the ‘Connect to Stripe’ button and complete your account connection via Stripe.
When your Stripe account has been connected, you will see the following message in your Settings:
Now, you can accept payments through Eventective!
Processing Payments
Payments integrates seamlessly with our Agreements tool. If you’re unfamiliar with Agreements, you can learn more here.
The new Payments tab in the Inbox is for managing and requesting payments. Any payment schedules created as part of an agreement will be displayed here and can be modified.
For any payment, you can include the following information:
- Description (e.g. deposit, initial payment)
- Status (Unpaid or Paid)
- Due date
- Amount due
Any remaining balance for the event is shown so you can craft a payment schedule to match your rates and possible changes to the event.
To request a payment via Stripe:
Click on the ellipses (…) next to the payment you would like to request. Select ‘Request Payment.’
You will be asked to confirm your payment request. Once you click ‘Confirm,’ your client will receive a notification with a link to make payment.
Once your client has successfully submitted a payment, you will be notified, and the payment will be marked as ‘Paid.’ All details and history for each payment will be available.
Payments are also stored in your Stripe account. Your transaction history will be recorded there too. Stripe will issue electronic deposits to your bank account.
Stripe’s standard fees are 2.9% + 30¢ per transaction. Eventective’s processing fee is 0.3% per transaction.
