In NextPaw, you’ll create an order that includes:
- The customer's information
- How they're receiving their order (in-store pickup, curbside pickup, or local delivery)
- The products/services they're purchasing, quantity, and price of each item
- Tax rate (if applicable)
- Optional: notes and an invoice number
You’ll then choose to do one of the following:
- Send Payment Request: Sends the confirmation text along with the secure payment link
- Save order details: Sends a text to the customer letting them know you've gotten their order and will send a payment link shortly.
- Cancel: The creation of the order will be deleted.
To Request a Payment:
- From your Dashboard, click Sales, then select Orders.
- Click Create Order.
- Search for an existing customer or click Add New.
- Choose the delivery method for the order.
- For curbside orders: Choose the day & time the customer wants to pick up the order. If you don't know when they want to pick it up, you can leave it blank.
- For local delivery: The customer's address is required. You can also add what day & time they want their order delivered, but this section is optional in case you are unsure. - Click Add Product. Search for the name of your product or service, or add a new one. Choose the quantity, add the price (per product), and your tax rate (if applicable).
- Select whether or not the order is one-time or recurring. If the order is a subscription, Click Recurring, then choose how often you want the order to repeat.
- Complete the order by choosing Send Payment Request. Click Save Order to save the order for later. Click Cancel to cancel the order.
