In the app, when your customers buy products in installments, they do the initial payment in the amount set by you (from 0 to 99%). As for the remaining amount, the app will create draft orders and send your customers invoices according to the payment schedule.

In order to ensure that customers will get invoices, go from your Shopify admin to Settings > Checkout. In the Customer contact section, select Customers can only check out using email and click Save.

In the app, installment orders are processed in several steps:

  • As soon as customers create an initial installment order, it becomes visible in the app. Draft orders are created in the Shopify admin for each part of an installment order.

  • As the draft installment order is getting paid, a new order for each paid part is generated in the Shopify admin. These orders mustn’t be fulfilled.
