The Event Pay Later option allows you to have your event registrant choose to pay at a later time for their purchases. On the Event Settings tab, scroll down to the Financial Information section to find the options for Pay Later. Below is a description of each of those settings.

  • Allow Everyone To Pay Later - This setting would allow anyone visiting this event page the option to pay later.
  • Allow Members To Pay Later - This setting requires the Advanced Portal to be activated. With this toggle set to YES, the event registrant must be logged into their portal account and have an active membership. They would then be able to select the Pay Later option.
  • Allow Internal Only To Pay Later - This setting would hide the Pay Later option from the public, however any AssociationSphere users who are logged in will be able to select the option when registering a constituent.
  • Pay Later Comment - Enter the message that will display next to the Pay Later checkbox that activates this option for the registrant on the event page.


With any Pay Later feature activated, you then have these additional options:

  • Automatically Create Invoice if Pay Later - with this toggle set to YES an invoice will automatically be generated, however it will not be sent unless you also activate the Send Invoice via Email.
    • Allow Partial Payments - you can allow partial payments but you cannot set the payment schedule, so constituents can make smaller payments of any amount.
    • Invoice Payment Page - you must select a payment page
    • Invoice Due Date - this is the number of days after the transaction that will be set as the due date for the invoice.
  • Send Invoice via Email - setting this toggle to YES will send the invoice as a separate email with a link to open/download the invoice cover letter and invoice.
    • Mail Merge Template - choose the invoice cover letter from the Mail Merge Invoice Templates list.
    • Save to Document - When set to YES the invoice cover letter and invoice will be saved into the constituent's Documents tab.
    • Document Name - Enter the name of the document.
    • Document Category - Select the document category.
    • Invoice Email Body - the email sent with the invoice can be customized with merge fields from the event transaction.
