Cooking classes: SMS deposits and confirmed sessions

In cooking classes, each session has a limited number of seats and ingredients prepared in advance. With PayLinker, you send an SMS deposit link for each booking: students pay from their phone, the seat is secured and you reduce last‑minute cancellations. For premium packs (multi‑session courses, themed programs), you can offer instalment payments via Stripe. Students spread the cost, while you are paid out by Stripe immediately to your connected Stripe account (PayLinker never holds the funds). Each payment generates an automatic PDF receipt, useful for both your clients and your accounting. Whether you run a cooking school, host workshops in a restaurant or organise pop‑up classes, you don’t need a terminal: a payment link is enough to collect deposits, balances and options. Links are time‑stamped and tied to a date and amount, making it easier to track bookings and payments. PayLinker fits your booking rules: you keep your own policy on postponements, cancellations or non‑refunded deposits, while the tool handles payment collection, notifications and history.
