Order For Customers plugin lets you take orders and bookings for your customers in the simplest way.

 

Order for your customers

After installing Order For Customers, a new “Order for” field appears on your booking forms. If you use it with WooCommerce, this field will appear on the checkout page.

On the frontend

You just have to make a standard booking / order on your site and choose the customer before you submit it. If the customer does not yet have an account on your site, choose “New Customer” and enter the required information. An account will be automatically created, and its username and password will be sent to him by email. You can also book without creating an account.

On the backend

It is possible to manually add a booking from the admin panel. Simply go to your booking list and click the “Add new” button. You will be able to choose any booking form and make a booking for a customer from it. You can choose whether to send the confirmation email.

Book from the backend

WooCommerce users will be able to bind and unbind bookings to order items at any time.
So they can create an order with bookings from the backend from start to finish.

Bind / Unbind a booking to an order item

 

Pay later (with WooCommerce)

Order for Customers also has a brand new payment gateway called “Pay later”.
If you choose it at checkout, you will allow your customer to pay later on your own site through the other authorized payment gateways (card, paypal, on the spot …). Your customer will receive by email his order summary with a link to proceed to payment.

 

Operator, a role in its own right

This plugin has been specially designed for operators and salespersons. This is why it is possible to assign the “Operator” role to those users.

Then, WordPress administration interface will be accessible and simplified for them. Your operators will only be able to see and do what they are allowed to. This way, you will greatly minimize manipulations errors and their consequences on your activity.
Your operators can mainly:

  • Create and edit bookings
  • Create and edit customer accounts
  • Create and edit orders
  • Create and edit coupon codes (ex: in order to make compensation in case of dispute)

 

Requirements

Order for Customers works only if Booking Activities is installed and activated.
You can use it with WooCommerce, the functionalities related to WooCommerce will be activated automatically.
