In this article, I’ll show you how to set up a mandatory additional fee using the Bodillo system. There are 2 additional fee options ‘one-off’ and ‘recurring’. Let’s take a look at how you set each one up below.
One-off:
This is a single payment the participant will have to pay one time only. E.g. membership fee. Learn how to set one up here.
Payments & Billing:
Go to ‘Payments & Billing’ section in the side menu, then select ‘Additional Fees’. Here, you’ll have the option to amend an existing fee’s, or create a new one.
Step 1: To create a new addition fee, click the ‘Create New’ button.
Step 2: Fill out the details about your fee and click ‘next’.
Name: Something identifiable for customers
Heading: A quick explanation about the fee
Notes: Your chance to justify or explain the fee
Fee amount: The amount you wish to charge
Late joiners pay full amount: If toggled on, late joiners pay full about, if left toggled off, the fee amount will be calculated on a pro rata basis.
Step 3: Choose ‘one-off fee’ and then click the ‘save’ button.
And that’s it! Your one-off fee will now be allocated to each of your participants, and they’ll only have to pay it once. Let’s check out how to set up a recurring one below.
Recurring:
This is a repeat payment that the participant will have to pay, either yearly or every new date block. E.g. membership or insurance fee. Learn how to set one up here.
Step 1: Head over to the ‘Payments & Billing’ section in the side menu, then select ‘Additional Fees’.
