How to Take Service Appointment Payments in the Sparkforge Mobile App

The Sparkforge mobile app integrates POS with service calendars so business owners can collect the balance on a service appointment from the appointment card itself. Tap to Pay, card, cash, and manual entry are all supported.

What's available in the mobile app

• View amount due — open the Appointments section, tap the service appointment card, and see the amount owed.
• View invoice — open the invoice from inside the event card and edit it to add line items if the service ran long or used extra materials.
• Record payment — collect the balance directly from the appointment using Tap to Pay, card, cash, or manual entry.

Set up the calendar to accept payments

1. In Sparkforge web, open the service calendar's Forms and Payments section.
2. Turn on the Accept Payments toggle.
3. Set Payment Mode to Live.
4. Configure the rest of the payments settings and save.

Take payment from the mobile app

1. Open the Sparkforge mobile app with the same subaccount selected.
2. Go to the Calendars section and tap the booked appointment.
3. Review the amount due along with the View Invoice and Record Payment buttons.
4. Tap View Invoice to open the invoice and add or edit line items as needed.
5. Tap Record Payment and pick Tap to Pay, card, cash, or manual entry.
6. Complete the payment.

Why this matters

Service appointments often have a deposit at booking and a balance after the work is done. Bringing POS into the appointment card means the business owner collects the balance without switching apps or re-entering customer or service data.
