This feature is available on all Goodshuffle Pro Plans.
When your client authorizes auto-pay, Goodshuffle Pro automatically adjusts the payment amount based on your final project total. Here's how it works:
When you remove items (amount decreases) Your client will only be charged the new, lower amount.
Example: Project starts at $1,000 with $500 deposit paid and $500 auto-pay authorized. You remove $100 worth of items. Your client will be auto-charged $400 instead of $500.
When you add items (amount increases) The auto-pay will cover the original authorized amount, but won't automatically charge more than originally approved.
If the total contract amount increases beyond the pre-authorized balance, you will need to manually collect the additional amount by updating the authorization or requesting a separate payment.
Example: Same $1,000 project, but you add $200 worth of items. Auto-pay will still charge the original $500, leaving you with a $200 balance to collect separately.
How to Handle Amount Increases
Manual intervention is necessary to ensure clients approve any additional charges and adjust their authorization accordingly when project totals increase.
Go to the project's Billing tab
Send a new payment request for the additional amount
Or call your client to authorize the higher auto-pay amount
When auto-pay processes Auto-pay typically runs based on your payment policy timing (e.g., 7 days before the event). The final project amount at that time determines the charge.
