Accept deposits and offer flexible payment plans for your WooCommerce store with Stripe.
Deposits and Payment Plans for Stripe WooCommerce enables you to accept deposits and split payments into installments, giving your customers flexible ways to pay while ensuring you get paid on time.
What You Can Do
