We know that many merchants offering repair services require their customers to leave a deposit or down payment initially before the repair process starts. This pre-payment or advance payment can then be adjusted at the time of checkout. You can relate to this if you repair expensive smartphones, trade for PCs, build customized gaming computers, or even go for complex repair jobs at your computer repair shop. And if you do one of those things (or one of the many other use cases), you’ll be excited to hear that we’ve made this process much easier for you!
RepairDesk’s Deposits module covers everything that you need to get advance payments or security fees before investing your time on a complicated repair job. Let’s learn more about what you can do with our recently launched ‘Deposits’ module.
Pre-Set the Deposits ValueÂ
RepairDesk’s Deposits feature allows you to apply either a fixed or variable payment to a repair job. This payment will be used in the future towards the total charges upon a job’s completion. That’s how setting the deposit value will create uniformity across all of your repair services. Additionally, you don’t have to worry about setting up the amount every time while creating a repair ticket.
Getting an upfront payment that covers your out-of-pocket costs will completely change your business’ cash flow.
Minimize the Security Risk
Once you’ve received an advance payment for an expensive computer repair, you can assign a technician for the job immediately. Collecting down payment is also known as one of the most effective methods of the revenue-saving strategy. Getting paid in advance with RepairDesk’s Deposits is a great way to avoid situations where you need to chase clients who delay payments.
Split Payments
Another handy reason to take deposits is the payment division. Your clients won’t have to pay the total amount right at the time of submitting their damaged device. Instead, a smart way to save your sale is to get some percentage of the total bill immediately. Once the customer pays the deposit, your computer repair shop POS software will create an invoice on that deposit, and that amount will automatically adjust at the time of receiving full payment.
