Despite the fact that it is safe to give credit card numbers with bookings, many guests are afraid. The Booking form uses 128 bit SSL encryption to protect guest credit card details. You may wish to give them payment options that do not require providing a credit card. One option is 'Phone or Fax'. This allows the guest to make a booking, print a special form that can be used to send follow up payment by phone or fax.

If you are using MyPMS's feature of being able to process credit cards through a payment gateway, you are able to make the deposit process automatically when guests make bookings online AND/OR when you use the 'Add Receipt' feature to a booking in the Members Area. In effect, this allows the system to act as your credit card processing terminal by allocating authorization and transaction IDs to each Receipt used that is marked 'credit card'. You may also wish to require use of the CVV2 (commonly called 'Card ID'). If so you can enable this setting under Setup | Site Details.
