  5. Fill out all the fields:
    • Number of guests
    • Time
    • Name
    • Phone number
    • Email address (capturing the email address is a must, as prepayment details will be sent to this address)

Tip: To have more hidden prepayment options for internal use only, set the minimum guest count to 100 when creating a prepayment option. This way, the system will only show it to you and not for online reservations, unless you allow bookings for up to 100 guests. Here is how to create a prepayment option.
