Vacation rental payment processing means collecting card and digital wallet payments, holding security deposits, and splitting a stay into a deposit now and a balance due later, all without leaving Lodgix. Lodgix can also request a payment automatically at any step of the reservation.

Lodgix connects to either Stripe.com or Authorize.net for payment processing. Stripe connects through Stripe Connect, so every payment lands in your own Stripe account. Process payments automatically according to your schedule.
With Stripe, you choose which of these methods your guests see at checkout and on payment links:
Guests who pay another way are covered too. Record cash, checks with the check number, bank transfers, or your own custom payment method with instructions shown to the guest, and every payment sits on the same invoice as the card payments.
Switch Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and Diners Club on or off for your account, and checkout warns a guest who enters a brand you do not accept.
Set your deposit as a percentage or a flat amount, collected at booking, and the balance due a number of days, weeks, or months before arrival. A guest who books inside that window pays in full at booking, so a last minute reservation never slips through with a balance outstanding.
Switch on automated payments and Lodgix charges pending payments and balances as they come due, for every property or only the ones you pick. If a charge fails, you get an email and an in-app notice, and the guest can automatically receive a payment link to settle up with a different card or method.
Collect a security deposit as a refundable charge with the rest of the payment, or as a card authorization hold placed automatically on the arrival date. Call it a Security Deposit, Damage Deposit, or Refundable Damage Deposit, whichever reads best to your guests.
Offer guests a damage protection plan as a fee at checkout, and open a claim against an issued plan from inside Lodgix.
Guests paying by card can add travel insurance from Vertical Insure at checkout.
Record full or partial refunds on the invoice, or turn the amount into guest credit for a future stay.
QuickBooks Sync connects Lodgix to QuickBooks Online and sends your guests, reservation invoices, and payments to QuickBooks, posted to the income and deposit accounts you map.
With Stripe, guests can pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Link, or ACH Direct Debit, plus any buy now, pay later options you switch on, such as Klarna, Affirm, and Afterpay. You can also record cash, checks, and bank transfers against the reservation.
