LatePoint Addon – Payments Flutterwave is an official extension of the LatePoint booking system that connects your appointment calendar with the Flutterwave payment gateway, one of the most relevant payment processing platforms on the African continent with international presence. It is designed for service businesses — clinics, consultancies, salons, academies, or independent professionals — that use LatePoint to manage their bookings and need to charge their clients securely and automatically directly from WordPress.
The add-on allows clients to pay for their appointments at the time of booking via card, bank transfer, or mobile money, thanks to Flutterwave's infrastructure. This significantly reduces no-shows, as the payment is confirmed before the appointment is scheduled. Additionally, the booking status is automatically updated when the payment is processed, eliminating the need to manually verify transfers or ask clients for screenshots.
Key features include processing full payments or deposits, webhook support for real-time notifications from Flutterwave servers, refund management for completed transactions, and invoicing for invoices generated within the system. It also supports multiple currencies, facilitating international operations and allowing you to serve clients in regions where processors like Stripe or PayPal have limited coverage.
Configuration is simple: just enter the public and secret keys from your Flutterwave account in the LatePoint settings panel. The entire payment flow integrates natively into the booking interface, maintaining a seamless and frictionless user experience. The add-on also offers support for individual transaction payments and automatic payment status updates, simplifying business financial management.
In short, LatePoint Addon – Payments Flutterwave is the ideal solution for businesses operating in markets where Flutterwave is the payment standard, allowing you to unify bookings and payments in a single workflow within WordPress.
