This guide explains how the checkout flow works and why it makes the process smoother.   **Before you can implement Multiple Payment Methods** - You need to submit a request to [support@hapana.com](mailto:support@hapana.com) to have your Client App updated and for this feature to be activated in the Hapana Admin backend.  - Once confirmation has been received, from the Hapana Support Team, that the backend has been configured you can follow the below step by step instructions.    **Step-by-Step Instructions**   **Enable Multiple Payment Methods in Retail Settings ** - Login to Core - Navigate to **Payments \> Retail Configuration \> Retail Settings ** - Scroll down to **'Payment Method Settings'** - Click the pencil icon to edit and select '**On**'.    ![Article image](https://support.hapana.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/1759443055167_baeb6f61_Multi-payments---Setting-1.png)   **Configure the Preferred Payment Methods for Recurring versus One Time Payments** - Initiate a New Sales either via Core or the App. - Select the desired Membership and Client to be attached to the sale.  - Proceed to **Checkout** - Once in the Checkout screen, scroll to the **Payment Method **section.  - Under **Recurring Payment**, select an existing stored payment method or add a new one. - This method will be used for all future automated membership payments. - Under **Pay Today**, select a payment method for the initial signup fee or first payment. - You can use the same as the recurring method or a different one. Note: If you want the “Pay Today” method saved to the Wallet, check the box **Save for Future Use** before submitting. If left unchecked, it will only be used for this one transaction.   **Complete the Checkout** - Review and confirm the selected methods. - Submit the payment. The system will enforce the correct method for each payment type — no mix-ups!   **Expected Outcome**   After following these steps, clients will: • Successfully assign different payment methods for recurring vs. one-time charges • Store a new payment method if desired • Experience a faster and more accurate checkout process   **Troubleshooting / FAQs**   **Q: Do I have to use two different methods?** A: No, you can use the same method for both Recurring and Pay Today if you prefer.   **Q: Can I save both methods to my Wallet?** A: The Recurring method is automatically linked; the Pay Today method can be optionally saved.   **Q: What if my Recurring method fails later?** A: Clients can update their stored Wallet payment methods anytime in the app under Billing Information.   --- **Still Need Help?**   Reach out to our support team via support@hapana.com - [Member Management](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Account Settings](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#account-settings) - [Client Accounts](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#client-accounts) - [Edit Profile](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#edit-profile) - [Retail Configurations](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#retail-configurations) - [Other](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#other) - [Schedule](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#schedule) - [Client Page](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#client-page) - [General](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#general) - [Reporting](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#reporting) - [Retail Dashboard](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#retail-dashboard) - [Team Settings](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#team-settings) - [Hapana Member Access Control (MAC) Doors](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#hapana-member-access-control-mac-doors) - [Cash Drawer](https://support.hapana.com/member-management?hsLang=en#cash-drawer) - [Marketing Solutions](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [App](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#app) - [Contacts](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#contacts) - [Marketing](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#marketing) - [Conversations](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#conversations) - [Settings](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#settings) - [Automations](https://support.hapana.com/marketing-solutions?hsLang=en#automations) - [Branded Solutions](https://support.hapana.com/branded-solutions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Branded App](https://support.hapana.com/branded-solutions?hsLang=en#branded-app) - [Branded Kiosk](https://support.hapana.com/branded-solutions?hsLang=en#branded-kiosk) - [Hapana Hub](https://support.hapana.com/hapana-hub?hsLang=en) - [Website Embed Widgets](https://support.hapana.com/website-embed-widgets?hsLang=en) - [About us](https://hapana.com/about-us/) - [Careers](https://hapana.com/careers/) - [Contact us](https://hapana.com/contact-us/) - [Privacy policy](https://hapana.com/privacy-policy/) - [Terms & conditions](https://hapana.com/terms-and-conditions/) [![email-logo.png](https://support.hapana.com/hs-fs/hubfs/hapana_2022/email_2022/footer%20logo.png?width=300&height=78&name=footer%20logo.png "email-logo.png")](http://hapana.com?hsLang=en) Copyright © 2025, Hapana
