    Hi! Is it possible to make payment (Stripe) part of the booking form so that the booking request is not completed until payment is done?

    Hi there,

    This is the way the plugin currently works. You select your dates, fill in your details then proceed to payment. After payment is done, the booking is also created. You can see a demo of how the booking process works with Stripe here: https://www.wpbookingsystem.com/add-ons/stripe-payment-add-on/

    Thx for the quick reply.

    Can we make credit card holds instead of regular payments?

    Yes, kind of ??

    With Stripe, you have the option to Authorize the customer’s card and only Capture the funds when accepting the booking. But the Authorization can only be held for a maximum of 7 days. If you do not accept the booking within 7 days, the funds will be automatically released.

    The 7 day period is imposed by Stripe, it is not something we can control.

    Thx again for the reply Roland!
    Is this an option within the plugin? Can we automatize the renewal of the hold until after the check-out date and keep it separated from the payment of the booking? We are looking at what ChargeAutomation offers as part of their service and it would be great to be able to achieve the same using Stripe’s documentation. Do you think is possible?
