Method 1: Client places a deposit online on our ecommerce platform®

  • Client pays for their spa package online, sending a deposit (eg. £50) to Premier via the Analysis / Transaction Code: ‘Spa Deposit’
  • The above deposit is processed as an online payment method via the system payment type: ‘onejourney’
  • When a client arrives on-site to redeem their package, the payment is taken from the deposit to pay for their items
  • Core will then balance the above payment type as a ‘Redemption’. 

In summation: A £50 deposit is paid for via payment type: ‘onejourney®’.


Upon client departure, when redeeming their deposit

  • After the client’s treatments and upon departure, they will pay via positive value deposit (eg. +£50) to Core by Premier Software® via the Analysis / Transaction Code for treatments or packages
