Use a One-Off Purchase to take payment for an appointment, consultation or prepaid treatment package. You can collect it before, during or after the visit, using a link or checkout at the desk.

​
Create the appointment or package service

  1. Open Sell → Services → New Service and choose One-Off Purchase.
  2. Name the treatment or package and enter its price. For a prepaid package, enter the price for the whole package and describe the treatments included.
  3. Add Terms of Service for the conditions customers need to accept, such as rescheduling, cancellations, refunds or a package’s expiry.
  4. If the customer needs instructions after buying, add a Welcome Email. Choose instructions that fit when they pay: a booking link or preparation details before a visit, or relevant aftercare after treatment.
  5. Turn on Available for Sale and save the service.
For a package paid over time or an ongoing membership, use Set Up Beauty Treatment Plans and Memberships.

​
Take payment at the desk

Open the service’s … menu in Sell → Services and choose how the customer will pay:
  • QR Code: let them scan and complete checkout on their phone.
  • Tap to Pay: accept a contactless card or wallet on a supported iPhone after enabling Tap to Pay. Finish all checkout steps after the tap.
  • Purchase as Customer: guide them through checkout on your device, with their permission. Let them review the service and any terms before agreeing.
  • Share Link: send checkout if they would prefer to complete it separately.
For a different price on the same treatment or package, choose Custom price from the service menu. This creates a Custom Pricing Link; it keeps the service’s inclusions and terms. Create a separate service when those details change too. The customer’s New Purchase email records the purchase and includes their accepted terms when enabled. Check the payment status in Newie when recording the payment against the appointment; a bank debit may still be processing.

​
Collect a deposit and the remaining balance

Create a One-Off Purchase for the deposit and another for the balance. Name them so the customer can tell which part they are paying, and explain when the balance is due. If the deposit secures a booking, include the agreed cancellation and rescheduling conditions in its terms. When the balance is due, calculate it from the agreed treatment price and the amount already paid. Enter that amount in the balance service, or use Custom price if the balance differs between customers. These are separate purchases in Newie; the balance is not calculated or collected automatically from the deposit purchase. Record the deposit and balance against the appointment in your clinic or salon system. Confirm the appointment there too. Use Newie with Bookings covers both booking before payment and sending a booking link after checkout.

​
Record visits from a prepaid package

Once the customer has bought a package, record its included treatments in your clinic or salon system. Use that record when booking and completing each visit, so the customer is not asked to buy an included treatment again. Track remaining treatments, expiry and any extras there. Newie keeps the package purchase and payment history; it does not deduct a treatment each time the customer attends. Last updated: 2026-09-11
