Local payments get messy when proof stays in chat

PayNow and bank transfer are familiar to Singapore customers, but teams still need a reliable way to track whether a booking has been paid.

  • Payment screenshots can be sent to the wrong thread or missed during busy periods.
  • Staff have to ask finance or another agent whether money was received.
  • Customers ask repeatedly whether their PayNow payment has been confirmed.
  • Deposit and full-payment status may not be visible in one booking record.

  3. 3A staff member verifies the offline payment and Touris stores who confirmed it and when.
  4. 4Touris recalculates the paid amount, booking payment state, and outstanding balance.
