Make sure your app is updated to the latest version to access this feature. **Why Use Our Embedded Stripe Integration?** While Offline Payment Types give you flexibility to record external transactions - using HUSL’s built-in Stripe integration provides a more powerful and seamless experience. With embedded Stripe, you can: - Take **single, unified payments** for services and drop shipped products in one transaction - Enable **automatic deposits and cancellation policies** for online bookings - Reduce manual entry and reconciliation between systems - Provide a smoother checkout experience for clients - Keep all **payments, reporting, and tracking** fully centralised **in HUSL** 👉 If you sell your services/in stock retail and drop-shipped products in one transaction - Stripe integration is required to support combined payments in a single checkout or the dropshipped product in that one checkout. **What Are Custom Offline Payment Types?** Offline Payment Types let you record and complete payments made outside of HUSL’s built-in card processing system (Stripe). You can now: - Add custom payment types (e.g. External Card Processor, Gift Vouchers, Memberships, Salon Pay) - Split a single transaction across multiple payment methods - Track all payments accurately in your reports These payments will correctly appear on: - Receipts - Customer records - Sales reports (broken down by payment type) You can add up to 3 custom offline payment types. **How to Set Up Custom Offline Payment Types** From the Home Screen: 1. Tap your **Profile Image** (top left) 2. Go to **Payments** 3. Tap **Offline Payment Types** 4. Add and customise your payment methods **⚠️ Important Considerations** Before using external card processing or offline payment methods, please note: - **No combined checkout for services + drop shipped products** If you are using an external card processor, you will not be able to take a single combined payment for both services and drop shipped products. To enable this, you must use HUSL’s embedded **Stripe integration**. - **Deposits and cancellations require Stripe** HUSL’s integrated deposit and cancellation system is only available when using Stripe. It cannot be used with external card processors or offline payment methods. ![Screenshot 2026-06-12 at 10.06.51 am](https://help.husl.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-06-12%20at%2010.06.51%20am.png?width=300&height=649&name=Screenshot%202026-06-12%20at%2010.06.51%20am.png) **⚠️ Important: Completing Transactions** Now that Offline Payment Types are available, it’s important to always complete transactions at checkout. If a transaction is left “Open”, it will be automatically removed after 7 days. You can always reopen them by tapping on the booking in your calendar. (Pending / Overdue Carts will not be affected.) **💡 Tips** - Set up your most commonly used external payment methods first (e.g. EFTPOS, gift cards) - Use split payments when clients pay using multiple methods - Always ensure transactions are marked as completed before closing your day Need help? email: indiesupport@husl.io - [App Help](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting Started - Self guided Onboarding](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#getting-started-self-guided-onboarding) - [Setup](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#setup) - [Installation](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#installation) - [Billing and Payments](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#billing-and-payments) - [Appointments](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#appointments) - [Customers](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#customers) - [Buying & Selling Products](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#buying-selling-products) - [Partner Brand Education Sessions](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#partner-brand-education-sessions) - [Hair To Stay: Business Tips](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#hair-to-stay-business-tips) - [Unwritten Hair care Education](https://help.husl.io/app-help?hsLang=en#unwritten-hair-care-education) - [Shipping and Fulfilment](https://help.husl.io/shipping-and-fulfilment?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Wholesale Shipping](https://help.husl.io/shipping-and-fulfilment?hsLang=en#wholesale-shipping) - [Product Roadmap](https://help.husl.io/product-roadmap?hsLang=en) - [Release Notes](https://help.husl.io/release-notes?hsLang=en) - [Brand Information](https://help.husl.io/brand-information?hsLang=en) [![HUSL Logo](https://help.husl.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Husl_logo%20(2).png?width=1080&height=530&name=Husl_logo%20(2).png "HUSL Logo")](http://husl.io) HUSL Hair Help Center Copyright © 2026, This email is powered by the HUSL app
