    Is there a way to set up unequal installment payment schedules in Events Manager Pro (or standard for that matter)?

    For example, for a week-long workshop we may want to collect payments as follows:

    On registration: $500.00
    By June 1: $1200.00
    By July 1: $800.00

    Some development work would be possible if I can be pointed toward the right hooks and given an overview of an approach that would work.

    Thanks very much.

    yes, EMPro has a manual bookings which accepts partial payment – https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/manual-bookings/

    Thanks for the reply. Unless I’m missing something, this is a completely manual process. Is that right? An administrator has to determine for each payment whether or not the buyer has paid in full. And the administrator checks or un-checks the “Fully Paid” box, right?

    That doesn’t sound like the same thing as setting up a fixed installment payment schedule, as in my example, and enforcing it. Not the same thing at all, unless I’m failing to understand the documentation on manual bookings.

    To be clear, I’m looking for a way to set up an installment payment schedule, like the example in my first post. Then I would want automatic tracking of the payments and remaining balance for each buyer, with a reminder email sent to the buyer just before each installment is due.

    This is a common requirement for organizations that conduct big-ticket seminars, classes, and workshops. I’m surprised to find that none of the pro-level booking plugins seem to address it.

    I hope I’ve misunderstood the documentation and that EMPro really does what I’m describing. Please let me know. Thanks.

    ok, I see now; unfortunately this is not possible at the moment but maybe if you can code you can extend em payment gateway to make this work.
