Operators running Destination Events juggle counter, remote, and recurring revenue in the same week. In practice: large deposits and milestone payments with protection on advance bookings. The usual break points are chasing invoices and waiting on checks to clear and high-ticket sales triggering holds, declines, or steep fees. We configure invoicing & pay-by-link with interchange-plus pricing you can verify, plus fraud & chargeback tools when you need it.
