In addition to the standard payment methods, you can create your own manual payment method. This is useful for payments that are not processed through a connected payment provider, such as payments from Airbnb or other external booking platforms.
Using a custom payment method helps keep your administration organized and ensures that payments are processed correctly.
Create a custom payment method
Open the Unlinked payment methods tab.
Click Add next to the desired payment method, for example 'Imported payment'.
Enter a clear name for the payment method, for example 'Payment via Airbnb'.
Optionally link a Ledger account to ensure the payment is processed correctly in your administration.
Create a general ledger account
Don't have a suitable general ledger account yet? Create one first.
Click New ledger account in the top-right corner and enter the required information.
Save the general ledger account. You can then link it to your manual payment method.
Using manual payment methods together with the correct general ledger accounts helps keep your administration organized and ensures that it always matches your financial reports.
