The link is displayed to the user after he or she submits the form. (**Disclaimer:** If you're tired of reading this usual response on the internet, keep reading for other possible ways to collect payments from your users.) **Option 2:** Pay in Advance - Peer to Peer Payment Add your Paypal, Venmo, Cash App or bank account details to your form and ask users to pay and upload a screenshot as proof of your payment receipt. **Option 3:** Pay Later: Individual or Bulk Email Follow-up Follow up with your customers individually or in bulk by email, after you receive their responses. Sending emails can be done using mail merge tools or by writing custom code on your form using Google AppScript (for developers). **Option 4:** Pay online – Use the plugin to enable checkout with Stripe and accept payments directly in your Google Forms With the Neartail plugin, you link your Google Form to your existing Stripe account or create one. When your customers are ready to pay, they can pay with their cards on an automatically redirected Stripe checkout page with the order amount already set. Now, read on to explore what each of these options offer as advantages and disadvantages. Or jump to the option that interests you! ### Option 1: (Pay in advance) Link to a third party website Let's say you're selling fixed-price tickets to your next webinar at $20 per participant. You want your participants to fill in their details in your Google Form and purchase individual tickets. Are you selling tickets for the next webinar? Or are you selling scented candles online? Find out how you can use Google Forms to list your items and various ways to collect payments from your customers. This article explores in detail all possible payment options and integrations for accepting payments with Google Forms. There are 4 ways to do it: You can ask them to pay the fixed amount, in this case $20, by adding a standard link to your third-party payment website, such as paypal.me, in the Google Forms confirmation message. Once your participant enters all their details in the registration form, they will submit it. They then receive a thank you/confirmation message upon submission along with the link you've added. **Advantage:** - You specify how much your customer should pay (for example, http://paypal.me//20. You can specify the amount at the end of the paypal.me link) - There are no additional transaction fees on such a payment. Therefore, you can receive the full amount in your account. **Disadvantages:** - Your customer may not click the link or pay. - Even if they pay from your third-party payment account or bank account, they can't send you their transaction details, which you can then associate with the orders you've collected. For example, a user who used two different email IDs, one for registration and one linked with Paypal, there is no way she could identify them in a single registration. ### Option 2: (Pay in advance) Add peer-to-peer payment details on your form Similar to the option above, you can add your peer-to-peer payment details directly into your Google Forms, as a Title/Description field. You can write detailed instructions to your users on how to use the details to pay in advance before they submit the form. For example, you can include your Paypal email id, Venmo, Cash App or your bank account details (sometimes as QR codes) and ask them to send your payment. In this case, users are responsible for calculating the total amount they need to pay and entering their account IDs on your form for your reference. Optionally, you can ask them for a transaction number using a short answer question and upload the receipt using a short question to upload a file within the form. They then submit the form, and you'll receive their payment details in your Google Form responses or linked Google Sheets for manual verification. Once verified, you are ready to process your orders! Advantage: - No additional transaction fees on peer-to-peer payments. Therefore, you can receive the full amount in your account. - You can create and add more than one account of these payment options. Your users can choose to pay using whatever is convenient for them. Disadvantages: - If you have used the bank transfer option, sometimes the transfer takes 48 hours and is delayed, especially on weekends. - Your user who is skeptical about paying upfront may not complete the process, so you may be losing a customer. - Or a naughty user who wants to bypass the shipment may be pretending to send some fake transaction number or receipt. You will only discover this during the reconciliation process. Discovering such errors and following up later will only slow down the preparation/delivery of your order. Option 3a: (Pay Later) Individual or mass email follow-up for payment after submitting the form This is an offline process. Here you don't expect your users to pay you while they submit their orders. Instead, it collects all orders for the day, and then follows up with your users via email to request payment. 1. Your users choose the products they want to order on your Google Form. 2. Then they submit the form, and you'll receive their orders in Google Form responses or in the linked Google Sheets. (Remember to ask for their email address). 3. You set up individual or customized mass email campaigns using one of the mail merge tools to send them emails with a summary and total of their order. It will tell you where and how to send your payments. 4. Once your user reads the email and makes the payment, they do the manual task of manual verification against each order and payment. Then you are all set to order and deliver the order! Are you selling tickets for the next webinar? Or are you selling scented candles online?
